Outside the ground and there's a very light shower at the moment.

I'd rather keep Schache for another year.

Poor Spargs is clearly struggling with that Achillies injury.

He's been listed as 3-4 weeks away since round 2.

Easy one to forget, but Daniel Cross gave us two very good years in 14-15. 

Clohesy looks a serious prospect for GC.

Beautiful tapwork from Fullarton and Sestan kicks a third to go with his 17 touches.

Interesting to see that Fraser Rosman is currently lining up for Port Melbourne.

Bailey Laurie with 15 touches and 11 tackles to half time.

6. Gawn

5. Chandler

4. Rivers

3. Langdon

2. McDonald

1. Viney

I'd much prefer getting more games into Bowey.

22 points is flattering. We were nowhere near it tonight.

A great Youtube channel (aptly named "The Mighty Demons") posted the highlights of Tommy McDonald's debut today, so I thought I'd dig up his debut thread and add the video to that.

It was a great debut and displayed all the hallmarks of his game - excellent spoiling, deceptive closing speed and good game awareness to come off his man and support in the backline. His characteristic stiff but effective straight-line gait was on show as well. All that was missing from the player we'd come to enjoy in later years are the goals.

I think he has been an underrated addition to our backline this year and really feel it's his best spot, as good as he was as a forward for us in the 2018-2023 period.

Hoping for a good end to an underrated dee's career. One of my favourite players over the journey, and someone who could still be a huge benefit to us in the backline again in the twilight of his career.

Thanks for sharing, not just for the TMac highlights, but for also for bringing the name Tom McNamara back into my mind for the first time in 13 years.

Lingers definitely hasn't been at the level of '21 and the first half of '22 for a while, but his season so far has been a step above of what we've seen in the last 18 months. 

Just got out of Elvis Costello at the Palais (superb concert by the way) and checked the scores for the first time.

I honestly couldn't care about the inaccurate score line, two wins in a week in hostile territory is a terrific achievement that the media will no doubt fail to bring attention to over the coming week.

Great to see Fritta amongst the goals. Looks set for another 50+ year.

Looking forward to seeing McVee's highlights. Sounds like he was superb.

Lachie Hunter is currently sitting on 197 AFL games.

I know he's been injured of late but you'd think we'll see him in the side at some point this season.

Considering the degree of difficulty and time of the game, I don't think you'll see many first AFL goals better than Windsor's.

From his first game against the Doggies last season, there was just something about the way Judd moved and used the ball that screamed natural footballer.

It's clear the coaching staff have enormous confidence in his ability considering he's taking a large number of the kick ins and being matched up on the oppositions gun small forward. 

I think he's been great so far this year. 

Just when I thought he had a career best game last week, he comes tonight with a BOG match winning performance.

Easily one of our important players at the moment alongside Maxy and May.

I'm proud to say that today's match was the first Melbourne game I've attended interstate. 

What a bloody win. Couldn't be prouder of the boys. 

He's clearly highly regarded by those within the club. Hope this show of faith from the club helps him take his football to the next level.

Wouldn't take the risk on May. Especially considering Hore is a perfect replacement.

Hawks came out hard in that quarter. Our defence stood up really well. Need our mids to get back to basics.

I'm really surprised that teams don't put more time into Tom Stewart. Absolute gun footballer. 

Although it hasn't caught on (yet), I've been calling Matthew Jefferson 'Starship'.

I'll always love Wattsy. Always a Demon in my mind.

Very fond memories of watching him looking the goods in 2016. He was regularly kicking goals and was really starting to show his full potential. Think he placed 4th or 5th in the B&F that year.
