Only early days, but first signs from Tappy are that Roost Its hunches are Shite! Been impressive so far.

so much man love for Tappy after today. Ready built footballer straight out of the box. Looked like a veteran. Would be happy to have 35 on the back of the jumper


And I think final signs are that Roost Its hunches are shite too! What a gun! :)

 

The decision to take this kid was a very smart one.

Yep, no doubt the kid can play and he has certainly proven he is no one-trick pony. Booming kick, accurate delivery, reads the play exceptionally well, strong mark, fearless and hard as nails! At least Roost It should now have the opportunity to reassess now that he has actually seen the kid play.


Brilliant debut. His kicking was top notch, he was hard at it, seemed to run it out no problem, and just overall didn't look like a first gamer. Loved it, and will easily hold his spot for next week.

So in love with this kid. What a man-child! :wub:

Great kicking, great hardness, great awareness, good marking. Excellent debut!

So which one of these is his one trick?

- The ability to take truly gutsy marks at critical moments in the game?

- Ability to hit targets consistently?

- Ability to win contested ball regularly?

- Ability to run through blokes in a way we haven't seen since Byron Pickett came to top up his super mid 2000s?

I don't normally like to say I told you so, especially after one game, but that was such a ridiculous call that I can't help myself.

Almost killed Rhyce Shaw in the last quarter, great debut.

I loved that hit, Tapscott is a MONSTER. He looks like a very promising player for MFC... Although I am disappointed I did not see him kick a goal from 80 out.. maybe next week.


Tapscott is awesome. He will play 22 games if he stays fit. Better on Debut than Watts/Trengrove/Scully. On par with Gys who played well in his first hit out last year. Lots to like about Tapscott!!

we have found an absolute beauty here.

Couragous, good decision maker, great kick and is bloody tough at the contest(just ask Shaw)

Well played on debut Luke

The only good thing out of this draw is that our points total is greater than Roost It's credibility total.


Very, very good debut. Cult figure status brewing.

great game...will he get a rising star nod?

Will go close you would think. Competition from Libba and Irons from Port maybe.

 

Very impressed with his performance today. I put him in my supercoach team @ just over $100,000 dollars the other night so am happy with that decision!

The only good thing out of this draw is that our points total is greater than Roost It's credibility total.

The winning margin is greater than Roost It's credibility total.

  • 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.
