  1. This reporter is a prophet… https://www.theroar.com.au/2021/02/03/the-melbourne-demons-are-a-genuine-flag-contender/
  2. Just a reminder that this same reporter predicted is to win the premiership in February 2021… https://www.theroar.com.au/2021/02/03/the-melbourne-demons-are-a-genuine-flag-contender/
  3. Any updates from the vic metro game today?
  4. If Brisbane finished top 2 then they’ll play both games at home. Good luck trying to beat them. Not sure what they’ll be luck in mcg in the GF
  5. Smith got totally worked over by Carlton. Kept of moved off the ball. He is giving up 10cm and 10kg to moore . He isn’t the solution. Moore will have a field day.
  6. We haven’t lost by 10 goals in more than 2 years. You know very little about our game if you think that’s going to change in 1 week
  7. No one at the club has ever mentioned a loading regime so not sure why people think it actually occurs
  8. Lose tonight and season is over..: can’t lose more than 7 games ro make the top 4..:
  9. The guy is reporting tape by his coach. why are you trying to get people not to read the story?
  10. I think people like to complain. They forget that we are watching a team that would match it with any side in the modern era. The team has 10 genuine AA players. This might never be replicated again in our lifetimes. make the most of it. Cherish every moment

    He recklessly hit a player high in the head enough for that player to be subbed out. Lucky not to get more weeks
  12. Dees are are scoring 50% of the tine going inside 50. It’s the highest in the league. Not sure the coaches are too concerned
  13. dees have never been number 1 in clearances.:: both 21 and 22 years had us in 5th. This year we are 13th. Goodwin clearly doesn’t focus on this aspect of the game as much. losing clearances to the number 1 team in the league was expected. We are also ranked 13th in contested possessions this year. So again losing CP to the number one CP team was expected. cats were 10th in both CP and clearances last year so I wouldn’t think it’s necessarily the Recepie for success.
  14. I think GC are being underrated by some. They are a massively improving side and will give teams a scare when playing at home. They are a clearance machine ranking number 1 in the league. Rowell and Anderson are 1 and 5. Touk Miller would have won them the game tonight. That team can’t take a trick.
  15. So I’ll assume that they know more an you and the right person was chos regaddless of ‘boys’ club narrtive
  16. You don’t think he the most qualified for the position?
  17. If Oliver were to finish his career tomorrow he would still go down as a top 5 demon player since the 50’s era. to think that he is just 25 is astonishing
  18. Have you seen the strapping on his shoulder? His overhead marking isn’t elite. judd was also limited overhead however had a stellar career

    The longer this goes without an update the more likely it is for a serious injury… let’s hope news comes out soon
  20. Since I’ve started watching in the mid 80’s 1. Schwartz - is the beating heart of this club. 2. oliver - if he were to finish today will go down as the best MFC player since the 50’s. 3. Neitz - top 5 captain in MFC history 4. max - top 5 ruckman in vfl/afl history 5. Jakovich - Showman
  21. We aren’t asking for a mini series on his life. Is it too much to ask for a 5 minute interview?
  22. The demons media is abysmal..: how difficult is it to do an interview with the coaches or management??? How difficult is it to do an interview with most of the playing list? Part of the role of a football club is in promotion. You are selling memberships. I’m not expecting a stream of the full training session but publish something a bit more detailed than a 4 sec short film
  23. Agree… there has been minimal content. It’s as if we are back in the 2000’s. where are the videos of training sessions, more interviews with players, coaches and admin departments. this isnt expensive to do. Just needs someone with some will power and initiative

    Very little chance of getting a favour from a labor government in relation to facilities around Yarra park. Andrews has a habit of endorsing funding around labor or swing districts. There is no political benefit for him to back a MFC development

    There is a possibility that max is capped at 50% ruck time due to injuries… he will be 31 next season. Unfortunately he is a liability up forward. Once the ball hits the ground the opposition easily clears. Could he play in defence instead? Not sure he is nimble enough to hold down a key forward
