Wish we had been able to keep Jetts at the club but happy that he has landed a job.

This was posted in another thread but I think it deserves it's own.

I have DVD players at home but they have not been connected for a long time and the ones I have are in various states of operation. Between Apple TV (and other such devices), Foxtel, YouTube, Netflix & other streaming services there simply isn't a need for it anymore. Can you purchase a VHS player in any stores anymore? In a few years you will not be able to purchase a DVD player.

The fact that the GF DVDs provide alternate commentaries says all you need to know about the Channel 7 commentary. * * Apologies for lumping Daisy in with that lot.

Great. Now I need to buy another DVD I can't even watch. Thanks.

Must be all that experience playing 2nd ruck all those years we didn't have an actual 2nd ruck option.

👀 🤣

Looks like he's staying. DEES LOCK IN ANOTHER FRINGE FORWARD Melbourne forward Jake Melksham will see out his contract at the Demons next year after giving consideration to a move to a third AFL club. Melksham played only 12 games at the Demons this year as the new wave of small forwards took over, playing his last game in Round 22 before watching the finals from the sidelines. The former Essendon player, who crossed to the Demons and then sat out 12 months through the Dons player bans, had been a dangerous goalkicking forward who kicked 32 goals in 2018. But he fell out of favour as Kysaiah Pickett, Charlie Spargo and Alex Neal-Bullen all played effective roles in the finals as small forwards alongside Ben Brown, Luke Jackson, Tom McDonald and Bayley Fritsch. The Demons marched to a premiership with mid-sizer Fritsch kicking six goals in the Grand Final as Spargo and Pickett applied immense forward pressure. Rivals keen for mid-sized forwards do not have the salary cap given uncertainty over total player payments to make bids for a player of Melksham’s calibre. So he will attempt to make himself a senior regular again for the Demons. Veteran defender Michael Hibberd, who also crossed from Essendon to Melbourne, will secure a one-year deal with the Demons.

I've purchased the DVD because I'm a sucker. I may as well have purchased it on Laser Disc or 35mm as I'll be able to watch it the same number of times. The DVD should come with a USB drive so I can actually watch it on a medium that I still have access to.
