I thought Hughes did alright for his first, in trying conditions. Could this effort seal the fate of Miller?

Miller will need 3 BOGs at Casey to get a game. I`d rather Danny to be honest

    But missed the easy one in the first.

    Played well though. Presented nicely, has great hands. In the wet last night he was useless below his knees but hopefully next week it'll be dry and we'll get a more accurate assessment. But no reason to drop him based on last night's effort.

    Yeah 50m out with a wet ball and your first kick in AFL is an easy kick... Can't think of a time when he was useless below his knees either.

    Let's not forget his first game he lined up on an all australian in Brian Lake and he did pretty well, also in the last quarter i think he did really well.

    He's just about had 2 now.

    I'd still prefer Danny. Millsey has had his chances, now it's Danny's turn. He's certainly earned a decent go after all he's been through.

    I would not be surprised to see the Miller in by the time we play the Wobbly Woods.

    Was very very far from BOG on saturday.. still drops marks when he is 20m in the clear. Still just plodding a long and will on play if every one else falls over.

    Not the only one who noticed that Danny was getting the Huuuuuuuuughes chant! Looking forwards to saying it a lot next week.

    thought danny was alot better thsn most posted already

    I agree.

    As Jaded pointed out, he had a fair few marks and I thought that reflected his effort.

    He kept presenting and also did some good work when the ball was in his area.

  • Quote

    Yeah to add to that he took a team high 6 marks.

    If you look at the stats Johnson had 0. Jamar i think may have had 1 and a few others 1 or 2 that usual take more... sorry don't have the stats in front of me!

    Danny's game was better than anything Miller and Newton have offered up in the last 12 months.

    • The Clayton Oliver Thread

      Melbourne have held talks with Clayton Oliver and they’ve laid out where he fits in under Steve King’s vision and been frank about expectations. Oliver is still under contract for five years, but the door is open if he wants to explore his options elsewhere.

    • 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.
