I don't think that's Glenferrie, as Hawthorn stopped playing there in 1973. It's more likely to be Princes Park which was Hawthorn's "home" ground in 1989.

I sincerely hope that his surname doesn't rhyme with "cough".

Our oldest ex-player and looking extremely well for his age. This is from the MFC site a couple of years ago. https://www.melbournefc.com.au/news/1208539/demon-spirit-oldest-living-dees-journey

Top shelf?

What will be the new Rick role?

Bomberblitz have a "Melbourne Deathride" thread and their consensus is that we'll finish near the bottom. I'm much more inclined to agree with @WERRIDEE. We haven't lost a game for three months!

The correct answer is West Richmond - North Richmond.

I just can't get my head around considering next year's crop and all the unfamiliar names so soon after this year's draft has only just been completed. It's like waking up on New Year's Day and thinking about what you'd like to get for Christmas.

The 'Age' article also mentions that we have posted an operating profit of $1.7 million. No doubt this figure would have been much higher if it were not for various legal costs.

The full payout to Gus has been revealed to be $3.1 million. https://www.theage.com.au/sport/afl/exercising-with-demons-christian-petracca-returns-to-training-track-20241122-p5kssh.html From the article: The Demons had been negotiating with head office to push more of Brayshaw’s five-year payout outside their salary cap. Under current rules, 90 per cent of Brayshaw’s 2024 payment is outside the club’s total player payments, with 75 per cent in 2025 and 50 per cent in 2026. But the fact he was contracted until 2028 means the full amount of what could be a heavily back-ended contract must also be included in the salary cap in 2027 and 2028.

Sorry LG, but I've retired. Who will pick up the baton? Besides, there's Test cricket to watch. And we've just got our first wicket! Jaiswal will no longer baton.

3pm AEDT according to the AFL website.

The two players that I immediately thought of were Pedersen and Podsiadly. Hope he does as well as they did.

A mature aged (turns 25 in March) 193cm muscled up assassin. Play him on Maynard on KB!

I've got a reputation to live down to, you know!

That would certainly apply if the player had just brushed off an opponent.

Here's a chance for posters to use "laconic" properly! (see also adj. "reticent")

When you're not sure if "Dees" needs an apostrophe or not. Spoiler: It does not.

In this respect we are no different to some "supporters" of every other club. It's not just a Demonland / MFC thing.

You left out 34. Kalani White

Whatever do you mean?

AMW = Another Matty Whelan.

Haha *shrewd

Cool!
