Angus Brayshaw
Do the coaches also undervalue him, considering he came 14th in our best and fairest last season? Behind the likes of Charlie Spargo, Kozzie, ANB and Fritta.

He is an extremely good role player - he's not remotely close to being on par Jake Lever.

POSTGAME: Rd 04 vs Port Adelaide
Our off-ball defence is football porn. Mesmerising.

Max Gawn - Slow start
Cool thread.

Max Gawn - Slow start
Sack him imo.

Cal Twomey's Top 50
I think most of these lists in the lead up to the season will have Petracca as #1, but I think if you polled Melbourne fans most would have Oliver as our best. Is his dominance somehow underappreciated amongst the football media?

Why Luke Dunstan came to Melbourne
Gotta say, for a man with supposed "serious" character flaws, Goodwin seems to be able to quickly gain the respect of players. Effectively every player he's recruited has said something along the lines of "I joined Melbourne because I was blown away by Simon Goodwin and his presentation".

2021 Player Reviews: #13 Clayton Oliver
Best player I've seen wear a Melbourne jumper. Freak.

Welcome to Demonland - Pick 17
I believe we were also very keen on Zak Butters.

AFL TRADE NEWS AND RUMOURSÂ
Reading the below article, it looks like he just wants to feel part of something and enjoy his footy. Get him on the phone with Goody and he's ours - players seem to love him (even when we were no good). https://www.sen.com.au/news/2021/09/20/he-didnt-rate-me-dunstan-disappointed-with-way-st-kilda-treated-him/

Your favourite grand final photo
He wouldn't have played for us this season, and he knew it. Probably the right decision for him, despite the GF loss.

POSTGAME: GRAND FINAL vs Western Bulldogs
I love you all

Flying the flag
My Dad's place in Meredith, Victoria. He was born in February, 1965, so here's to hoping he witnesses the first Dees flag in his 56 years tomorrow. Go Dees!

WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - JAKE BOWEY
Reckon Bowey started that. Got stuck into Zac Bailey after Clarry kicked it - I think Daniher was just backing up a teammate. Play on.

"Luke Jackson won't make it as a ruckman" Dwayne Russell 3/12/20
After listening to Jackson on the Gus and Gawny podcast, I'd be extremely surprised if he ever left Melbourne. Also, every team should be "throwing everything" at him. Kid is a freak.

POSTGAME: Rd 11 vs Western Bulldogs
Libba's a gun. What in the world are you talking about.

Back to Back Blockbuster Friday Nights for the Dees
Anyone. Anytime. Anywhere. We'll beat them - where we play them won't matter.
-
Jason Taylor
The hit rate on kids drafted after pick 25 is remarkable.

Do you trust Melbourne
Agree wholeheartedly. I'd encourage all Dees fans to let go of the "trust" concept - just lap up the wins and enjoy supporting a side that actually looks *good* for the first time in a long time.

Our 2018 Attempt to Land Zak Butters
He's awesome.

Our 2018 Attempt to Land Zak Butters
A good sign that that pretty much every guy JT drafts or wants to draft has turned into a good player. Let's see how Max Holmes pans out for Geelong - he could be another to add to the list.

Clayton Oliver Contract negotiations
Clarry is a better footballer than Petracca, Shuey and Cripps. None of the other listed "dime a dozen" inside midfielders currently on our list come close to influencing a game the way Oliver does every week.

Mark Williams New Head of Development
I have a bit to do with Werribee FC and back what @goodoil and @dazzledavey36 have said above. Great bloke and football mind - I LOVE this hire.
