And he needs to get on the park soon!

Because another year like last year would not be be good for his future.

The competition is littered with players who would have been great if they were not constantly injured.

He was drafted just outside the first round when we picked him up. He'll be given a long time to prove himself.

    How long is "long" BB?

    3-4 years.

    Too long BB!

    If we have not seen something, anything by the end of 2012 it is all over for me.

    How long do you support someone who cannot get onto the the Park.

    They would want to be very very good to go beyond 3 years and even 2 years is testing my patience!

    I dont expect much on Friday night, bails is clearly using it as atraining run and to test out the depth of the squad.

    In his statement yesterday he said:

    "We can only control what we can do at Melbourne and that is playing footy and ensuring that Friday night is a really good hit-out for us."

    I presume hit out is something less than full steam ahead. I expect we will see a lot of those not in the regular 22.

    Personally I applaud this as it gives them a chance to step up, doesn't expose players who we need to be fresh for the first game and consigns the NAB cup to its rightful place as being like the old inter club practices matches.

    Anyone with some overwork needs to be rested from these games. Not surprised that Scully has knee soreness given the repoerts so far, he may need to slow it up a bit at training. More troubling in NJ's back I really hope its not a long term thing.

    It would be a real shame if he can't get his body right with us and GWS snap him up at the end of next year and he becomes a star.

    • 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.
