My daughters Jumper, what number should she have?

Featured Replies

Posted

HI guys,

after a couple of weeks of pretty hard times, i would like to ask for all you beautiful melbourne people to help me decide what Number i should get for My daughter on her new jumper? Without being to self indulgent, She is 17 months old and is the apple of my eye, and she is and will be a Melbourne girl for life. This week against Geelong is the game that will decide who becomes her favourite demon. The players dont realise it, but what happens on Sunday at Geelong will result in one player securing their biggest fan for life.

I want it to be someone who hurts for their club, who shows courage and passion, and who shows strength in times of adversity..

I am asking for the people of Demonland to help decide..It's Demon Idol..vote for who you think is worthy of having their number on my daughters jumper for the next 10 years!

 

10

 

13... in anticiaption of next year when the old YZE man passes it on to Valenti

If we are lacking pace, Valenti will struggle.

2 and 10 for mine.

I still think Grimes would be a good bet!

 

let the girl grow up to pick her own..as she will always make a 'different' selection to you !! lol.. Girls do that !!


2 or 10.

Or 4, everyone loves Ben Holland.

Holland is my 5 year old son's favourite player and there is nothing I can do to change his mind. I cringe when people ask him and had to quickly retreat when he asked in a very loud voice at the quarter time huddle of the Zebra practice game at Casey "Why is Holland playing for the Zebras Daddy?"

As for my choice, I would go for 6 (Bate) or 14 (Dunn). I still have high hopes for these two.

You cant go past no 3. Think of the history and champions that have worn (and is wearing now) - Henry Coles, Gerard Healy, Garry Lyon, Clint Bizzell and now the boy with the million dollar smile, Clint Bartram.


1, 10 , 2, or 3 or 6

Wait til the end of the year and then give her the number thats selected for Naitanui

Somehow I don't think Dutchy will be around for another 10 years!

He should be though.

Not playing him is the reason we've been smashed in the first two weeks!

Big Ben :wub:

Actually if I was placing a number on a young kids back right now I'd go with number 1. Hopefully he breaks the curse on that number.

5

He'll come good :)

That's nothing!

In my younger years, I decided that Michael Clark was my favourite player (and you thought Dutchy was bad!)... that was until I saw him at a function with both arms in a cast. When I asked him how he did it, his answer was "on the toilet". Still to this day it is one of the most disturbing player memories I have.


2, 6 and 27 for me..........always found it hard to pick a favourite player.

45 is my number of choice at the moment but when we are talking 10 years down the track i have to be realistic.

6 or 2. but really i want to say 4.

bring back benny.

 

31

31 would be another option not because of Wheatly though was Barassi's number! Other reasons for 31

3 (Bartram) and 1(Buckley) = 31

3 (Bartram) x 10 (Morton) + 1 (Buckley) = 31

13 (Yze) reversed = 31 (Yze needs to turn it around)

5 Got to love the chooka!

3 as said, lyon, bizz now barts!

10 cos any one looks good in that after ward.

  • REPORT: Essendon

    What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

    Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

  • GAMEDAY: Essendon

    It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?
