58er

3rd in 2018 Brownlow Medal.

No one covers Clarry!!! But he us a good attempt to with hardness and experience as improvement in our system us the bonus as well as no cost for a pick. Welcome Luke.

Sorry that's for 2021 but we have done this for about 6/7 years and look what's been achieved.

We do no 17 !!!

Didn't seem to be any problem of our disposal Redleg when we launched our great 7 goals in 17 mins NOR the 9 goal last quarter crowning glory our best for the season!!! Snd I saw it live !!! Best Footy by the Mighty Demons in the 62 years I have been attending matches. As Daisy (or someone else) said on the commentary "Melbourne are playing that good they can make and clean up their mistakes in the one piece of play". Perhaps Redleg it's a case where the theory does not match the practice. Kangas May one day be looking for a positive stats man Please consider joining them and giving yourself a real challenge!!!

Dare you to provide a certificate or proof of authenticity ET. Why only 7 signatures?? Are there any on the other side.? Did you get this from Ricky Nixon. Never heard of the brand of football either must be a $2 shop one! Have you had any nibbles yet ET? Any reliable explanation about the ball? MAYBE ITS ALL A PRETTY DISTASTEFUL JOKE. Wouldn't even qualify as a present for the Little Leaguers. Best to take it off this post and bin it as in bad taste.

One bloke calls him a rugby player !! Some others have lined Jack up Ho to the Trade Jack Biney I think or Drop Jack Biney posts and you will see. Nsyurally most if not all have gone to ground in light of the steams fzbulois form and results.

No this us for MFC only or Auction supporters. Think of all the kids parents that have barracked for the Dees since their childhood It's a premiership Unfurlingvdsy and I tjink it's open for all of sus but we have to support the Auction planty if other home games to be a mascot The kids may have rich grandparents anyway!!'

Was "quarantining" for 14 days in SA ( heading to WA for the Granny)with my cousins and hired a car and headed for the Copper Coast ( Moonta) on the St Vincent's Gulf where my father grew up. The Heritage Listed Moonta Mines has plenty of history and leaving one highlight I went to get back on the Adelaide/Moonta Highway only to see a Demon flag proudly flapping in the breeze at a homestead on the link road.Took a photo of it but my ignorance has prevented me from posting it attached or in the Flag Flying post in D/L recently. Wonderful 3 weeks 16 days in SA and 5 in WA culminating in the best tjing in my 73 years happening whi knows how many more we may enjoy with such a team ethos and superb list yo choose from. Great venue Optus and the noise!!! BTW you are pro sly thinking how did he get there from Vic well I live in Brisbane ( for 28 years ) and are a 55 consecutive year Dees member with GFG since 2018. Want to see a flag at the G just as much next year.!!

I'm not sure but I think Gawny made sure BBB got a good run at it for the msrk also. Another reason for the 4 big men in the forward line.

As zi have said previously Garbo sometimes your name reflects what you write. This is one of those slip ups. Fogga has turned about 4/5 games this year Hss improved in every aspect of his game and has the ball handling skills of a rover! He runs all day and is a great team man. And he was 19 when the Finals started!!! Hive him a break. The Club are doing all the right things and will do it agsin with Doggs. He deserves a medium salary contract on say a four year term back loaded. A generational player who we should get plus 200 sensational games out of and a couple of more flags at least. on ya Dogga

I'll admit DR D the kick he had smothered I was right behind and felt he could have handpassef out in front of another player to collect as he was 2/2 metres in front of Harmes. But he will now forever be remembered for the exquisite collect and pass over 50 m straight to Fritta 15:/30 metres out on the lead.and to his favoured side. This of course got the now famous "7 in 17 minutes heroics" which ultimately changed the game on its head and we never looked back. This without doubt the best quarter and a half Of Demons footy I have ever been fortunate to see in 62 years going each week from 1965 to 1993 and about 5/6 games each year since from interstate. Yes Harmesy can forever say he started the run of goals ( 16 out of 17) that changed the Final and resulted in our wonderful drought breaking and so well deserved first AFL premiership and 13th VFL/AFL Flag. We are now only 3 behind Blues and Bombers (16) and within 2 of the Pies (15) and equal with Tigers and Hawks in Premierships. One would have to be confident that we could make inroads into these figures considering our age demographics and talent and team attributes.

That's quite a confession that it's likely you have criticised or blasphemed all of our players?? I think the inference was that it needs to be a constant repeated almost torching if a player NOT a statement on a one off match or contest. Most have criticised players but the constant repetition snd harsh bias directed at players is a different matter which I think this is the area where an apology is considered necessary. Criticism about career ending or trade offs or dropping to the VFL or quite vicious attacks personally towards certain players eg ANB , Charlie Spargo and most unfortunately even Jack Biney come to mind. Around 2019 even Trac had people calling for him to be traded and Clarry even managed to get a few when the " "Carlton move" hit the posts last year. of course Goody had faced more than most over the journey with 2019 and 2020 resulting in nearly every one having an opinion on our now much loved and history making Coach. No wonder he was thinking the things in 2019 snd his future in the game!!!

"Cheuapness " has nothing to do with it. Ability counts and yes very few Injuries and great form did not require us to change the team very often. What the players are paid can reflect the stage of their career possibly but it is not judged on money vs opportunities in the Seniors.

No not ready Chandler and Bedford is a different style of player. But Spargo has earned every one of his 40 odd games. He has what's called "Footy Smarts" . They are there every time he gets the ball ie. something good ie a goal or a score assist comes out of Charlie's play. Hus tackling us ferocious and he was unlucky with a couple in the GF. But he stopped the Dogs on the run and we covered up downfield. His passing handball ing all hit their mark and you can't ask any more than that.

Melb took only 3/4 years 1900 to be exact. But long gaps like 26 years then 13 years. After '64 it has been a very long time and was looking a chance I would never see us triumph. As many of my predictions for this season largely came true I now believe that we are a real possibility to succeed for 6/7 years and collect 1,2,3 or more flags. Our attitude values and culture are by far the best of a Dees team since our glory days and will stand us in good stead with our ability and age definition for flag chances. Our team have started out by defining An MCG triumph in front out our fans as a goal and that is going to be a fantastic feat if we can again keep our footy at the current elite level and achieve that prize.

Why not marvel at our modern heroes our 2021 Premiership team who in 45 mins playtime IN A GRAND FINAL kicked 16 goals vs the 2nd Best team and conceded ONE goal. Surely a better effort than battering a sorry and half hearted team disgracefully playing Club politics out on the very ground we triumphed 6 weeks ago with of our best five wins this century. We then followed up with another best 5 win making them look old and out of ideas to cruise into the 2021 Grand Final. Lets talk about this not the dark past which while relevant is not A PRIORITY at all this summer..

Wrong wrong wrong we have had all our squad inc. the winning 23 from 2021 at the venues etc in Perth and included in the celebrations. These recent signees are all in the 30 odd or 40 that will make up our 2022 squad. Pre Season training includes all in the squad so NO reason to split this group till almost when the season starts. Every one is starting from SCRATCH agsin remember as in Goody's message to Our newest recruit Luke Dunstan. All in till March is the way to go!! Go Dees back to back BTW welcome to the Premiers Luke D all the best for a long and successful career here and possibly a flag or two!!

Yes because Jacko is more than a ruckman !!

Really Darkhorse 72 You need to coax him and take him along and drive him to get first in line etc Far too passive Then he will understand what life is like. Its the squeaky door that gets the oil. There have also been zoom sessions where juniors can ask questions to the players at least 2 when in WA If he's 10 then you have at least 7/8 more seasons to go Get started and be like our team aggressive and first in best dressed!!!

What a stupid negative comment bringing up a 3 year ago mistake by the Coach. Unnecessary for both and Bailey and Goody have both had great seasons.

I'm with you Dazzle and Durango why the changes when it ain't broke. Some moves mid game are ok if needed BUT you dont implement changes like you suggested. Dazzle is correct and you may need to hold the brain fades for 2022. Sorry but enjoy the game snd our combined pressure and form will see us win by between 12 and 30 points depending how accurately we kick.

Really Great and all that Daisy is comparing her contribution to Melb at this stage it would be an insult to Neiter Stynes Todd V Schwartz and many others Hassan Mann included. Glen Bartlett is already in WA also. Let Daisy shine in the AFLW at this stage please and maybe play in a flag this year. I also include her role in propelling W footy greatly but plenty in AFL have deserved this honour prior to our much loved No 1 AFlW star.

Riv played a good last half. 10 possessions. He's fine.
