GAME 6: Demonland's Best/Favourite Demon 1988-2020 - Tingay vs Jakovich
Yep agree I would love to have an Alan Jacovich running around today. Tingay was a sensational player A better comparison might have been Jacovich Vs Robbo!?

WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - HARLEY BENNELL
Ok and so given that then players clearly still haven't learnt that you have to be ACCOUNTABLE and play two way footy! Agree some very simple goals but still I believe our shocking habit to just bomb long should have been remedied LONG ago!

Terry Wilkins Kelvin Clarke Dennis Clark Marty Lyons Daryl Cumming Peter Thorne all played some good footy at MFC Greame and Ken Osborne, the former, a great player over many years for MFC in some dark days Paul Rowlands, Phil Rhoden, Obscure but played some footy at MFC, Marty Lyons kicked 4 on debut vs Footscray at the G. His son Jarred Lyons should be an MFC Player, we did have the chance and for some reason reneged on the opportunity. Now a great player at Brisbane! Good bloke Marty! Peter Thorne heck of a nice bloke and once kicked 8 goals in a senior game Is it just me or do others agree that in many cases the MFC DIABOLiCAL in developing and nurturing players throughout the ages compared to many other clubs!

WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - HARLEY BENNELL
Agree and what...... Exactly, had we done about that TERRIBLE inside 50 connection in the off season?????? Over to the coaches and if not coaches, players who cannot carry out the strategy. If the players then get rid of those who are perennial offenders and get in some who CAN DELIVER. If coaches then at the end of season, expect to see some major changes at MFC

Paul "The Count" Callery would be one of the best people I have ever had the privilege to know! Underrated but GREAT player, University Doctorate in Sports and Exercise Science AND fully qualified Carpenter/ Builder ( Hows that for Obscure not widely known info) Brilliant Golfer, Excellent Cricketer, Shocking fisherman! Just a wonderful human being!!

Top 20 Demons 1987-2020
The fact that the National Competetition began in 1987 should therefore include that season Rob Flower 's last year and so he should be NO1 Schwarz was a better player than Gary Lyon. James Mc Donald a better player than Brad Green and or Cameron Bruce Clarry Choo Choo too low Brett Lovett always one of first picked for the big V Not sure Todd Viney gets a gig I reckon Glenn Lovett was a better player when not injured! Steve Tingay to low Shaun Wight should be lower
