Thinking back over the last few years ONLY ,I reckon we really miss the General, Mr Bizzel down in defence, Darren Jolly, Scotty Thompson and Peter Vardy crumbing up forward.

Don't get the mob started on Bizzel.

Demonland code - If you're over 28 and have been a solid servant of the MFC, you have no place in the team. *Cough *Nathan Brown* cough*

Yes Bizzel would be handy as a third tall in defence.

Vardy was unfortunetly too injury prone for the Dees, so it's not worth discussing his absence.

Nathan brown and Ward, both defenders who could run the ball out of defense. I will admit they were not brilliant players but they did a job that non-one in our current team can seem to do.

 

Norm Smith and Jim Cardwell.


Ward... God we do not miss a bloke who can run 20 meters kick the ball 15 meters to a opponent and watch it sail over his head to his opponent for a goal!

And towards the end Brown was no better, but at least he made a contest.

Bizz was good a while back there, But I'd take a fully fit Stynes, Lyon, Schwartz pre knees, Viney, Tingay fit, god the list could go on.

Paul Prymke could have been our rock in defence. Think it was his back that gave way. And then came the Nicho era lol

 

Rodney "Balls" Grinter, I go misty eyed at the memory. Loved the guy.

The entire 1964 premiership side.


Troy Broadbridge...he was on the verge of something special...

Prob with grinter is he use to play 5 games miss 3, now he would play 1 get reported miss 12, play play get reported miss 18 :P

Nathan brown and Ward, both defenders who could run the ball out of defense. I will admit they were not brilliant players but they did a job that non-one in our current team can seem to do.

Ward LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL

Agree with the comment about Troy. That's been the best suggestion so far. The final against Essendon (i think) showed something to be looked forward to.


Scott Thompson

Ward LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL

laugh all you like, he would be selected ahead of all of our defenders at the moment (except Rivers, and arguably Carrol)

Scott Thompson

Yze Magic...I think you are right on the mark there...given that he's a guy who was on our list, and currently in his prime.

A great shame he got homesick.


Clearly coach Norm Smith and Captain RD Barassi.

  • Thank You Simon Goodwin

    As Demon fans, we’ve ridden a rollercoaster of emotions over the decades; the heartbreaks, the near misses, the wooden spoons, and the endless waiting. But through it all, we clung to hope. And then came Simon Goodwin. Before he ever wore red and blue, he was a champion in his own right. A five-time All-Australian, two-time Best and Fairest, and two-time premiership hero and Captain with Adelaide, Simon Goodwin was always destined to lead. When he transitioned from the field to the coach's box, first as an assistant at Essendon, he began shaping a new legacy.

  • PREVIEW: Western Bulldogs

    Long ago and far away, the Melbourne Football Club replaced its coach in difficult circumstances after the team suffered a devastating loss. In the aftermath, I penned the following words: “Then came the politics, the intrigue, the axing, the sound of the football world laughing at a club, the circling of the media vultures, the reinvention of history, the anger, the irony, the pathos, the hurt on the face of the president, the dignified departure of the coach, and the determination of the newly appointed caretaker.” Today, we’re back in the same place although one difference here is that the coach who was terminated this time is Simon Goodwin, the man who four years ago

  • REPORT: West Coast

    The Charles Dickens novel, A Tale of Two Cities, opens with, “It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, …”  This phrase highlights many of the significant challenges that humanity encounters in life, ranging from experiencing remarkable highs to living in times of despair. This is a concept that should resonate with all supporters of the Melbourne Football Club this morning as they reflect on its comprehensive 83-point victory over the struggling West Coast Eagles at Marvel Stadium. The outcome proved beyond doubt that they are the worst of clubs and that we are the best of the worst.

  • PREGAME: Western Bulldogs

    With only 3 games to go, all against Top 8 fancies, the Demons face a daunting task as they return to the MCG when they play the Western Bulldogs. Who comes in and who goes out?

    The Demons return to town fresh off a thumping win over the back-to-back wooden spooners, the West Coast Eagles, played in front of a sparse crowd at Marvel Stadium, the same venue that hosted last week's heartbreaking loss.
