13 victories shaping Melbourneโs 13th flag
Fantastic reading. Love the memories of these victories. Itโs nice to remember the great moments of the Dees amongst the horrors of many heartbreaking losses or disastrous thrashings. Itโs the journey of life and of being Dees fanatics. Letโs enjoy the good times and the celebrations. Premiers 2021. ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐

Remembering Colin Sylvia
Tragic. Heartbreaking. Col had the talent of Trac and Clarry. If only he had the others around him and the mental support and development like MFC has today. I remember his 5-goal - 30+ possessions game PLUS he was always generous with his time and his humour on social mfc events such as family day at Luna park. Rip Col.

Best Player to wear #31 since Ron Barassi.
Fritsch definitely on the trajectory to be the most successful since Ronald Dale Barassi. Still only 24. 85 games. 118 goals. The famous number 31. It has gone to โpotential young stars, big name recruits and number 1 draft pickโ. Ultimately the next most successful number 31 might be a young bloke from Coldstream who wasnโt drafted, did the hard yards through the VFL then got his AFL draft opportunity. ๐๐ป

Welcome to Demonland: Taj Woewodin
Assume all goes to plan and Taj becomes a Demon, do we give him the number 22 ? I think YES
-
Jared Polec
No. Has spiraled downwards over the past 2 years. Suggest injuries and work ethic mean his best is well in the past.

Delisted Free Agents
Itโs a sign of a strong team when delisted players get picked up elsewhere. Jay had strong attack at the footy and could still strongly. With Jetta retiring, I thought he might be able to stay on and be considered for the small defensive role. Not to be so we wish him good luck.

2021 AFL National Draft prospects: The next batch
Chesser is from Wodonga and boarded at Melbourne Grammar. Played at Sandringham Dragons. Quick burst of pace. Seemed to do a lot of media and very presentable young man. His injuries may see him slide down outside round 1. But his under 16s carnival form was outstanding so he will have to be strongly in the frame. If Dees want some outside mid pace, he may be seriously considered.

Mac Andrew
Well said Lord. Agree Dogga is a rare athlete and hard to put pressure on young Mac Andrew to try to copy him. Mac is very light and raw talent. Mac Andrew is definitely worth getting into your footy club but hard to justify top 4-5 pick on a youngster who needs development and the pressure of a top pick. Would love to see the young man stay in Melbourne and at MFC and have plenty of time to develop over min 3 years imv.

Welcome to Demonland: Andy Moniz-Wakefield
Yes definitely more of an outside midfield runner. Like to see him brought in as a Rookie. Then get him into the Brayshaw household as another young Demon boarder. Even if he didnโt make it, the Brayshaws produce and develop fine young men and footballers.

2021 AFL National Draft prospects: The next batch
Thanks Turner for the support and not the trolling. With the Dees premiership, I was hoping itโs positive energy on DL for the future. Usually a 70% strike rate. Actually as well the considered later picks Mansell, Ford and Winder looked ok in their AFL debuts this year. Got Salem over Freeman, Petracca over McCartin (who didnโt, yes the Saints) , Oliver over Parish. Liked Wines over Toumpas as we all did. Thought Gysberts and Lucas Cook picks were a (censored). Definitely got Scully & Trengove over Martin wrong (but they were the chosen ones). Got Bowey wrong (heโs a beauty and ok to be wrong. Saints were bleeding once again๐ข). Itโs a guess work without interviews and all the backgrounds and full access that recruiters have. Itโs all a bit of a fun, a distraction whilst we spend 5 months waiting for the action to begin. Thereโs no guarantees. JT is a legend and heโs been one of the keys behind our success. In JT we trust ๐
