Missed clutch shots aside, Pavlich's year has been exception considering who he's playing for.

If Neitz had kicked as many as what Pav did everyone on here would be wetting their pants about how good he is

Not bad. Backline and forward lines look spot on. S. Johnson, Medhurst and Motlop all play a similar role so I doubt that all 3 will get in. A 2nd ruckman possibly Hille, in for Medhurst.

Joel Selwood in for Deledio.

Dont like seeing Judds name in there. Not because we didnt get him, but because he doesnt deserve it and would be getting in on reputation alone. Wouldnt even have him as Calrtons best mid this year, let alone AA.

 

Never been interested in Individual awards including those based on opinion

To the MFC its meaningless and has no impact on next season

Its also nothing to do with how many Demons are represented or even any at all which is sure to be the case after a dismal season

To those who get picked sure it is quite an achievment but has no bearing on a team result

like i said, its a prediction of what i think it will be, not what i would have.

Unbelievably Mo, Hille didnt even make the initial squad of 40. I'm also surprised the Brendon Lade love-fest at the AA table didnt continue this year, seems no matter how he plays he gets a nom.

And given there's no Melbourne players I couldnt give a stuff. Having said that, when the telecast is on FoxFooty later tonight I can guarantee I'll be watching in lieu of anything else half decent to watch

TBH, I was struggling to think of a 2nd ruckman who's had a consistant year. I haven't seen the initial squad of 40, but they generally select 2 ruckmen.

Judd not only making it, but being captain is abit of a joke IMO. Getting by on reputation now. I know he was right up there at the top for contested possessions this year, but there were still players, especially midfielders, who were far better this year. I'd say Sam Mitchell was one of them. Brett Kirk another.

Really didnt deserve it, and Im sure Chris would be the first person to admit that.

Wankfest.

Aaron Sandilands is the most undeserving All Australian I've ever seen


Yeah not the most talented player ever selected :P They always put a second ruck in though, and none of the rucks were really consistent through out the whole year. Hille was good for part of it, Petrie also despite being used in several positions though.

Motlop pretty stiff to miss. Kicked what 60 odd goals or so in a team that came 13th. Bit like Robbo for us a few year back, though we did well that year :huh:

Despite those few mistakes, it's probably one of the better AA teams of the last few years.

I could of picked 5 guys or even more who deserved the captain more than Judd.

What a bloody joke!

Absolute disgrace to the whole event.

I even beg the debate that Sam mitchell who didnt even make the team would be a better captain than show poney judd.

Selwood should of been in the team ahead of judd.

Crap crap crap

Dont really see to many wrong choices here, though i would not have minded if J.Brown was at CHF (not saying Riewoldt doesnt deserve his spot).

Think they got it pretty right, though I'm sure there will be plenty of debate as everyone has an opion.

Yes, one might be fogiven for thinking, ne expecting that the Capt of the dominiant team all season might get the nod for al-OZ !! I think Harley © and Judd (vc) makes for a better taste in the mouth

Leaves it all loooking a bit pre-ordained etc. Youd think they pick the best 2nd ruck..for the 2nd ruck !!

All a bit conspired for mine !! surprise surprise ....surprise !!! :rolleyes:


How long until we have a player that even gets close to AA, and who was our last one? Sad times.

Even in Melbourne's better years they don't seem to have any players make the team (Farmer was the only player to make it in 2000). McDonald was the last player in 2006.

what was that?

Almost right. Pavlich didn't make the starting 18. There could of been more worthy for the interchange bench IMO, ie. Ling.

Jonathan Brown and Bradshaw kicked more than Pavlich, Rob Murphy had a stellar year and Ryan O'Keefe was unlucky. All of these I would have had ahead of Pavlich who has already won 5 All Australians before last night, making it a compelling case.

In my opinion, Adrian Anderson should not be on this selection committee. He went over to America, he went to Beijing and missed a weekend of footy. It is a farce that he is on this panel.

That's mature. Tell someone who cares. :)

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

    It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

    The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

    The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem   

    Salem proved to be a valuable contributor as a reliable and solid one-on-one medium-sized defender in what was undoubtedly his most impressive season since the premiership year. He remains a highly capable rebounding option for the Demons as he approaches his 200th game at the club.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    Following an injury-interrupted start to the season, McVee struggled to maintain the standard he established in 2025 as he pursued an expanded role within the team structure. He remained a firm fan favourite and the club had hoped to negotiate a new contract with the former rookie selection from Western Australia, whose partner, Lily Johnson, plays for Melbourne's AFLW side. Those hopes were dashed when he expressed his desire to return to his home state and play for Fremantle. Like all players who have worn the red and blue and are leaving this year, we wish him well in the future.
