What

Not sure If I am more excited about the debut of Petracca or the return of Trenners. Lots of reasons to be pumped for this season.

He bled so much for the MFC, he was in my opinion the best captain we have had since our last flag. Hes the last player to kick double digit goals in a final. I dont think even Ablett, Lockett or Dunstall managed to kick 10 in a final. Couldnt care less what hes like off the field or about his personal life, he is a legend of the club.

This and the footage of Trenners at training, .. very nice

What a sight Might need to rethink my Round 1 team

So many non-competitive players drafted around that time. Scary really. Thank christ the total opposite is happening under Roos.

Well hes injured all the time. and he mostly wasn't in my Round 1 team as he isnt good enough.

Now you see why I laughed at everyone that had him in their best 22 for Round 1 Incidentally I had Sam Frost at CHF in mine.. which is where he trained today

Glad that pic came up the day after I said Jesse would be a 1 club player Thats the smile of a man that just signed a long term deal

Isn't it nice to have a list of competitive players? More of this please. Go Dees

Hogan will be a 1 club player

Good, he is one of the best set shots for goal in the league

Yes very excited about Dom.. was brilliant in 2014, and although he had some what of a down season last year his stats still stacked up well with anyone at the MFC. If he has shaken his knee niggle he should go to the next level.

Australia's top female footballer Daisy Pearce has also been signed by the Demons in a full-time role that has seen her resign as a midwife, initially to join Melbourne's commercial team. As a player development and welfare coach, Cowan follows the path of Peta Searle who almost abandoned her dream to coach at the elite level before St Kilda recruited her in mid-2014.

Very disappointed to see the Russian join the filthy drug cheats

Has there ever been a good AFL CEO? Demetriou, McLachlan and Wayne Jackson all sucked/suck. Was Ross Oakley any good?

Anything with Dwayne Russell in it,. he is brilliant

American sports are the worse PED use is rife... Ill never understand how people watch crap like the NFL and NBA

It is ultra impressive how quickly he has changed his body shape... check out how pudgy he was in the first half of 2015 in TAC cup games , then check the latest MFC training pics. The kid seems like a real workhorse, and once he got a sniff that he might be good enough to get drafted he grabbed it with both hands and went to another level. Very exciting prospect.

I believe everyone will have a momentary heart attack before they realize its an old thread. Terrible bump

if Trent Cotchin is considered a star then Nathan Jones better bloody well be I bet I know who all 18 clubs would take out of the two if given the choice

He will give the B and F a shake this season, and maybe even the AA team. Yes he is that good.

B : N.Jetta - L.Dunn - C.Garland HB : H. Lumumba - T.McDonald - C.Salem C : B.Vince - D.Tyson - A.Brayshaw HF : D.Kent - S.Frost - J.Watts F : J.Garlett - J.Hogan - A.Vandenberg R : M.Gawn - J.Viney - N.Jones Bench - B.Stretch - T.Bugg - J.Harmes - C.Oliver Emer - B.Kennedy - J.Grimes - C.Pedersen Doubt that Trengrove and Petracca will be ready Round 1. And how nice is it to not have to worry about that horrible sub thing anymore? Go Dees

Will Frost be ready? Thought I heard he re-injured his toe, I hope I was just imagining that

Goddard named captain hahahaa Think ill put some money on them not winning a game now

Looks weak as hell to me, and thats before they get the inevitable injuries all teams get Hope they go winless
