Trac needs to focus. He’s very dangerous but he’s burnt team mates a few times now. Clarry on the other hand is passing beautifully! Keep it up boys! Huge quarter!
-
Gotta keep kicking goals while we’re dominating play and have momentum. They’ll fight back at some stage so we need to build this buffer. Keep it up boys!
-
Touched apparently. Not that any players heard the call. [censored] umpiring.
-
Nibbler having a good game. [censored] umpiring there to ping Brown for holding the ball.

If we can transplant a footballers brain into Smiths head, we’ll win this comfortably. Defense is struggling when the ball hits the deck, as Smith and Rivers are losing touch of their men. Tidy that up, and we’re sorted. Our forwards look dangerous tonight.
-
Smith was standing on his own in the pocket like a headless chook. Salem was caught trying to help out because Smith keeps losing touch and winding up standing stagnant outside the pack. He’s causing our entire defense to lose shape. Need to get him the [censored] out of the team. Surely the coaches can see the experiment is done and finals is not the time for experimentation over proven form in Hibberd. Get Hunt or Hibberd back in next week.

Great goal Clarry
-
Smith just gets lost. He doesn’t know where to position himself either in the air or on the ground. Just a horrible defender. We miss Hunt and Hibberd tonight. Both would provide better lockdown ability and rebound.
-
Should’ve gone with Hibberd instead of Smith
-
Getting done at the stoppages. Wake up boys!
-
Oh god I’m gonna be sick 🤮
-
Should be weeks but will only get a fine 🙄

Giants winning it from the contest today. Contested footy wins finals. Let’s hope we can bring our a game tonight and get it done around the ball.

Gus seems a logical choice for a trade, seeing as his brother and lots of family are in WA. I highly doubt he’ll be traded though. He loves the club and loves living in Melbourne. He might not be lighting it up on field, but he’s filling the role the coaches are asking if him, and filling it well. His defensive positioning has been a big part of our defensive zone vastly improving this year. He’s also super important to the club culturally. Yes he has media presence with the podcast etc, but he’s also one of the key drivers of hard work and respect amongst the players. Look at the end of the Geelong match last week as an example. When all the players were going berserk celebrating, Gus joined in celebrating for a bit and then tried to encourage his teammates to go shake the oppositions hand and show respect. He was first across to shake the oppositions hands and got the boys to follow him. He’s a leader out there for our players driving the right kind of values amongst the group. Then when they were in the rooms, he sung the song with more gusto than anyone! Not saying Cerra wouldn’t be a great get for us, he’s a great silky skilled player, but trading Gus would disrupt the playing group, standards, and culture of the club. And at the end of the day, the new standards being driven are the difference between 2021 top of the ladder demons, and the years before where we failed to make finals. Same list, different culture and standards.

Right ok. Should’ve known it was just fluff. Thanks for the info!

Anyone know if Taj has actually nominated?
-
Glorious! Now we can visualize where all those behinds are kicked from 😛 Pretty cool update though actually.

I saw Daicos nominated for father son. Are these nominations officially open? If so, can we expect to hear this week if Taj has nominated?

WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - LUKE JACKSON
Lord Travis replied to Lord Nev's topic in Melbourne Demons
100%. He’s proved me wrong and is developing very well. Now I think he struggles as a tall forward but guns it as a ruck. Just need to lock him away long term now! -

How young were you when Barass last raised the cup?
Lord Travis replied to TasJohnsonFanClub's topic in Melbourne Demons
Was not born. -
Unbelievable win. Truly unbelievable. I thought we were gone and they proved me wrong. This team is finally coming good. Well done on on finishing top boys. Stick it right up everyone!
-
Oliver has been brilliant. Our only winner out there tonight unfortunately.
-
That quarter was Mark Neeld era bad. 8 goals in a row against. Good to see we saved our best for last!
