Guess what in 13 weeks from today we will find out which way the club goes, we all can have an opinion some want a midfielder other a tall forward but we will not know until Thursday 26th Nov. Which ever way the club goes hopefully that player will be a star.

13 weeks...god that long !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :o:lol::lol::huh::mellow::(:unsure:

We will take Butcher. I would rather another mid but I think that the lure of a big forward will be too tempting to pass on. But really it shouldn't matter that much as we will get a good player no matter what we do.

We will take Trengove, he will become a certain 100 game player and is the best player available after scully. Taking butcher is too much of a gamble, and is not worth risking pick 2 on.

1. i don't

2. i don't

How do you know MFC will use pick 18, 34 and 50 on mid's?if they take Butcher.

Because, in that scenario, we will have Butcher, Watts, Jurrah, Bate, Green, as talls up forward;

we have Warnock, Frawley, Rivers, Garland (possible fwd ), Martin (possible fwd ) as KPPs down back;

We wouldn't take any other KPPs with those picks. We may well take a small defender, but we would certainly get at least 2 mids. They are the most important for depth

Correct....and whoever the club picks, they will be the best fit for our team. The football department will analyse the list meticulously over the next 3 months and they will be in the best position to decide whether we need a KPF, or a midfielder. However it ends up, I think that we are in safe hands and that we can sleep easy knowing that the club will pick the player we need the most. If it's Butcher, so be it. If it's Trengove or Morabito, so be it.

For what its worth, very little probably. Brayshaw and Lyon said it looks like the first 2 picks this year will be Scully and Trengove. Scully likened to Chris Judd and Trengove likened to Nathan Buckley.

If the get anywere near the level of those 2 our midfield will be top class for the next 10 years.

Our midfield WILL be top class. For the next ten years!

with scully and possibly trengove in our midfield with davey, moloney, jones, sylvia, mclean,etc.

our midfield in the near future will be awesome

  • 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.
