Happy with this decision too.

    Yep, this is a good call. Didn't deserve to have his AFL career ended so suddenly. I still see a player in TMac, and I hope he gets a game or two this year to prove it.

    Do you think we should have left this pick till March?

    TMac will make it but very injury prone. Saw him last Friday only running laps- therefore in rehab or at least not right to join main group.We maybe should have let it go to March- but gee with our list now - just a small risk.

    You will find that various players go throough the running laps/rehab, LJ has been in it the last couple of trainings I watched....particularly with players who have had a run of injuries in the last couple of seasons...it is called managing the load and is of no concern whatsoever......Tommy Mac is still only 20 and obviously still growing a bit, so they are building him to paraphrase Dean Bailey....I even saw Jack T in the group a forthight ago

    He has skills and a bit of grunt and vision. Could envisage him as a running half back flanker prepared to follow up into attack..

    Not sure as yet about his accountability though - that may be why he has only played 3 games, other than of course injury.

    I can't remember - were his injuries soft tissue strain type injuries or impacts?

    Emmn, a quality kid. Worth the downside.

    Just a good person, in my impression, to have about the place. Good luck to him, I hope he can turn things around.

    Second chances don't come around every day. Let us hope Tommy can make a career out of it this time around. Here is hoping the injury bug leaves him alone second time around.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Brisbane

      Forget the haunting of Round 11 — we’ve got this. Melbourne returns to its inner-city fortress for its milestone 100th AFLW match, carrying a formidable 10–2 record at IKON Stadium. Brisbane’s record at the venue is more balanced: 4 wins, 4 losses and a draw.

    • AFLW REPORT: Geelong

      Melbourne wrapped up the AFLW home and away season with a hard-fought 14-point win over Geelong at Kardinia Park. The result secured second place on the ladder with a 9–3 record and a home qualifying final against the Brisbane Lions next week.

    • 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.
