Big man aims for big show

JAKE SPENCER is not a name well known outside Melbourne Football Club and its faithful supporter base, but the giant ruckman is looking to make a few people sit up and take notice in 2009

Dean [bailey] said that if I can get through pre-season, and he can tell that I'm working hard, then I'm every chance to play in the NAB Cup -- that's when I hope to get a chance and we'll see what happens

    This article seems to me to be a message to those people who are questioning whether we have taken enough big men in the draft. We have one that the club rates developing on our list.

    Clearly the club believes that he is a chance of making it and is sending a message to not only the supporteres but to the player himself.

    I can't wait. Fingers crossed for NAB cup game!

    I actually can't remember what his kicking is like? I don't remember it being terrible.

    I'm a huge fan of big Stef, his kicking is passable but needs more work as it looks like he himself does not trust it yet and so prefers to handball off to a more proficient team mate. The huge plus is his speed of hands and the distance he gets with his handballs...his basketball heritage coming to the fore.

    Whilst I'd imagine when there will be times when he goes forward, at the moment he looks best suited to the backline.

    Caveat: 12 months ago I though Garland was a forward. ;)

    I'm actually really excited about the NAB cup. I think we'll see most, if not all of our recruits from last year, and probably some of this year's draftees make an appearance.

    What a friggin disgrace it is that they stuck us in bloody Tasmania against the Hawks in the first round though!

    Supporters have been asking where are our tall timber coming from in the draft? Or why wasn't a ruckman picked?

    Here they are: - Stef Martin, Jake Spencer, Mark Jamar, Paul Johnson, John Meesen.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Geelong

      It’s been a season of grit, growth, and glimpses of brilliance—mixed with a few tough interstate lessons. Now, with finals looming, the Dees head to Kardinia Park for one last tune-up before the real stuff begins.

    • DRAFT: The Next Generation

      It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

    • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

      A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
