Best 22 for Round 1
Very good side. Brown and Hibberd stiff but they donโt all fit.

Farewell Kye Turner
Welcome Kye. 1cm too short for KPF according to collective demonland wisdom. But donโt let that worry you, sKye is the limit!

Missing in Action Jackson?

Pre-season Intensityย
Yes agree, he is the most aggressive too - T-Mac the meatasaurus.

Membership Tally 2023
Gosh Deemac that was risky!. My understanding of genetics is shaky but with red-blue-white-black genes you could have even ended up with offspring having gene expression for Western Bulldogs, Norf, Geelong, Carlton or worse Essendon! Good solution though!

3 Extra Flags for the Dees?
Donโt understand the logic here. Are you saying reset to 0 if when a Tasmanian team enters the comp? Why bother then?

TRAINING: Wednesday 1st February 2023
First training session I have been to and I may have been the second best footballer there (I was with dad who was a handy suburban ruckman in his day)! Seriously we were both disappointed not to see and photograph our beloved demons. Go Deeโs - we can win the flag this year!

Why Luke Dunstan came to Melbourne
Watershed year at the Deeโs for Dunstan? Was a great contributor at Casey and key reason for flag, and can be very proud. I like him as he is an honest footballer but canโt see him playing 1โs unless it is inside mid and both Clarrie and Vines are out/rested. From watching Casey he hasnโt improved his quick disposal like we needed him to. Gets it OK and can/will run both ways.

Leadership and Stability
We have the culture now, great leadership examples, and have been recruiting with character/leadership traits in mind for a good while now. While we have great understudies in our current leadership group it is possible that our next captain may emerge from the current 21-23 yo crop and surprise most of us, particularly if Gawn can stay another 3-4yrs mostly on the park.

The No T$ No B$ Thread
We are a broad community! I grew up in a Richmond zone and while I loved it when their players came to our school and we did drills on the oval I couldnโt stand the team. After many demons hammerings I did have a brief flirtation with Hawthorn and was known to get around in a Melbourne jumper and Hawks beanie, so I wasnโt actually in the closet. Didnโt last long and was at Waverley prelim 1987 and cried.

Kozzy Pickett Re-Signs for 4 Years
Kosi is very special, so good already but still so much upside. I hope he is happy settled this year at/in Melbourne and decides to sign with us for as long as he wants. If he moves on Iโll be shattered but at least he wonโt be lost to the AFL. I still enjoyed watching the Wiz at Freo, even against us. None of us saw enough Liam Jurrah or Allen Jacovich (very different circumstances) though.

Kozzy Pickett Re-Signs for 4 Years
Agree. Round 9 WCE and 10 Nth Melbourne were early and missed opportunities to rest key veterans/bad niggles.

Gawn vs Cox
Yes some ruckman have a few dominant seasons but Cox had a decade of dominance.
