The best individual performance I have seen from a demon was Jacko v North.

I remember the astonishment from the sports writers in the states when Bennett stopped a sure touchdown from a punt return. He was the last player between the punt returner and the touch line - Bennett laid a bone crunching tackle on the player.

The sport writers were astonished as punters never laid tackles in the NFL and I was astonished because Bennett never laid a tackle in the AFL.

Not only that but that tackle saved the game for his team, the San Diego Chargers and as a result they got into the finals for something like the first time or the first time in many years. He became an overnight sensation and that tackle was broadcast all over the States. Set up his career for the next ten years.

He'd have played ten years regardless but the coverage around that tackle in Australia is what got me into NFL. It's a terrible sport but I do love it.

Do you have to be as mad as those two to be allowed to attend?

You are mad if you live in Manila. What a line up though?!

He could walk through the Philippines so easily. Nobody would give him a second look

I'd have to imagine it pre-drinks.  Don't think I could afterwards.

My wife's family is from the Philippines she came to Aus in 2001. Her brother and his wife were stuck over there during that typhoon, couldn't get a plane home for 2 weeks.

Seriously what an event that will be Jako and Pike together! Would love to be there and get on the [censored] with them AND watch the GF! I wonder if Jako knows how much he is adored by MFC supporters, still my favourite ever Demon since I've been watching. Every week was entertaining especially when we played the Pies he was a true performance artist

A lot of posters naming him a great of the club ................... don't think so.

He was a "great" in the same way Jurrah was - unfulfilled potential.

Definitely not a "great" but a cult hero for sure. Delivered more than Jurrah, still the quickest to 50 goals I believe? And second only to Coleman as quickest to 100?

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

We'll break down the Match SIM against North Melbourne and wrap up the preseason with insights into training and our latest recruits.
