So by using the word woman instead of girl clears me of being sexist? Thank you. How pedantic you are. No more English lessons please.

So by stating that girls should be allowed to be feminine is being sexist? Guys like to be masculine too. What a strange concept of the word sexist you have. Here am I defending girls rights and you are calling me sexist.

And so princesses are princes, duchesses are dukes etc etc? Or is it princess Harry these days?

And we have "batters" in cricket now and actresses are now 'actors'. The stupidity goes on. Do the girls really have problems with their gender that they want to given a masculine role? I don't think so.

Only Two games actually. The Cardiff Commonwealth Games (two gold medals) and the Rome Olympic Games. Gold in the 1500 metres. I assume either of two things. You are only very young and don't remember the Great runner or you are just trying to be clever. I opt for the latter. Am I right? Remember this was a discussion on fitness and conditioning and not football prowess. And Mr Elliot was oh so fit. Cheers, mate.

Hopefully they will do some sessions at Portsea and those wicked sand dunes. Didn't do Herb Elliot any harm.

In best 22 imo.

Can scare hell out of the opposition. A vital player when fully fit. Love you Vanders.

They will next season don't you worry.

I hope you are right even to a lesser extent than finishing top of the ladder. Sadly though, your positioning of Melbourne for 2020 was much like it was expected for the 2019 season. I believe we will rise again. Too many good horses in the stable not to improve greatly.

Dusty did win a Brownlow medal for his home and away form and polled plenty of votes in the Brownlow this season so his home and away efforts can't be that bad. I would sooner have him than Ablett and IMO he is certainly in Fyfe's league. We could have had Dusty in the Red and Blue draft time but chose to go for someone else. Jack Trengove I think. Oh well.

Keep Jeffy. When fit is a great chaser and tackler and he knows where the goals are.Too good to chuck away.

Good for you Jane. A true, dedicated supporter. I have been a Dees supporter all my life and that's 71years. I don't know what has happened this year but I look forward to us being a dominant team next season. We DO have a talented list despite what some may say.

Steven May did well considering the small amount of games he played. Love his polished kicking.

Very sad to hear of Bluey/s passing. What a champion winger he was. When he had the ball it was 'catch me if you can'. Gee he was fast. Even Hunty would pale in Bluey's presence. Of course he was courageous and tough and could he ever play football. RIP my Demon hero.

Gawn and Oliver not All Australian material?

I watched the last round of 2018 V GWS. (In an attempt to lift my spirits!)How we have missed AVD this whole season. What an essential player he was. I do hope that if he can get himself fully fit he will not be delisted. Give him one more chance MFC. Watching borderline players now I realised that some could still play footy. Kennedy Harris was lively and more than a useful player. Oscar played well as he did in the finals, Neal Bullen too played well. What has happened this season? Jetta has been not the Neville we know, Hibberd looked so much fitter and faster than he is this season and Brayshaw was outstanding. Max, of course is the true champion he is. At one stage he chased a GWS player with pace for a good fifty metres even though the result was in our hands. Comments ?

Great video Moonshadow. Wonderful. exciting memories. Was that a very young Nev Jetta at the two minute mark of the video?

I didn't see the game. How did Hunt in our forward zone cost us 4 goals? Name the occasions please.

Brad Green and Cameron Bruce would have to be up there too. Debuted in same year. Green played 254 games for the Demons and Bruce 224.Both didn't miss too many games through injury or suspension.

Thanks for the weather update Docs, 25 is not too bad for footy. Dry conditions should suit us. Here's hoping.

Where did they play 20 games this season? I must have missed some matches.

It certainly explains to a large extent our miserable 3 -9 win ratio this year. 818 inside 50's for a total of just 118 goals. The Geelong game was the worst with 72 entries for just 6 goals.Geelong from 48 entries scored 20 goals! We have created opportunities to score but to no avail. Inside 50's are Melbourne 818 Opposition 621.We have won the inside 50 count in 9 games out of 12 this season. We even pipped Collingwood with this stat yesterday, 118 goals 130 behinds is another factor while opposition have scored166-106 against us.Losing Hogan and a very out of form Tom McDonald are also contributing factors. Melksham would certainly help but our kicking for goal is sub standard. So many missed set shots from 35 metres out on very little angle. Wasn't it opening up old wounds when Weideman slotted the ball right through the middle from a very similar shot he had against Adelaide last week. Poor guy, I really felt for him last week and it was great to see so many teammates rush up to console him. He was absolutely shattered. As the poster concluded , How do we fix it? Over to you Simon and forward coaches.

6. Gawn Amazing game from Maxy. Simply amazing! 5. Harmes 4. Fritsch 3. Oliver 2. May 1. Brayshaw Apologies to Salem and Petracca.
