    The other one I think might be CAPABLE of it would be Tapscott (from what we hear) but of course he is out for the first half. Then of course there is McDonald, but I guess he comes in as a mature age recruit.

    The players above notwithstanding, I have this feeling that TMac will be oh so valuable this year in that solid year long player that you speak of disco.

    Hope all those players can string a few matches together but i think all of them will be rested at some stage during the year. Would be great to see Aussie and Garland have good seasons after there horrible injury runs.

    I also have a soft spot for Spencer. I think he could be a good target in the forward line and backup for the big russian.

    Damn i cant wait for the season to start.

    I think you actually miss the most likely in Jordie McKenzie.

    Are we trying to jinx all our young players?

    And 2014, I know what you mean but I had to laugh - the only other one you think could go 22 rounds uninjured is currently injured.

    I don't think/hope any of them will play 22 H&A games this year. I hope Not anyway.

    Reason,,,I hope they, Bennell/Strauss/Scully/Trengove/Jetta, all play at least 14/15ish games, but if they all played 22, that would mean we've put no games into others like McKenzie/Gysberts/Blease/Maric/Tapscott.

    We need to get games & game time into all these kids for all our sakes & developement.

    Some will be the dominant ones who get most games, that is yet to be seen who they will be.

    • 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.
