Newton is on the rookie list.

Nominated rookie. Can play all year.

(I can't believe people still don't understand/realise this)...

    Newton is on the rookie list.

    He can still play as a nominated rookie.

    This should be apart of the 'Random Facts That Are Constantly Posted Thread' that should be a sticky...

    He is our Nominated Rookie, IE eligible to play due to us only having one Veteran in Green not two

    Ah that's right, interesting selection.

    Sorry Newton being nominated didn't inspire me, pretty much why I'd forgotten about it.

    Disagree- I would play Newton instead at this time. Petterd is not in scintilating form at this time.

    You know I've been pushing for Newton. But he was unavailable.

    Ricky was a tad unlucky to be dropped and probably needs some fitness. There's players not pulling their weight. So IMO, there should have been a spot for Petterd. He wasn't the best the week before,,, but he's form has been good.

    He gives us mobility and some intensity up forward, something thats missing.

    Has everybody watched the vfl highlights posted on melbournefc.com.au.

    2 things I was pleased to see.

    1. Lucas Cook (wearing number 61) looks really clever footballer, can't wait for him to bulk up: SEE in clip at 1.11, 1.32, 3.05, 3.24, 4.00, 6.05

    2. Sam Blease (wearing number 47) showing some real zip, something that could really add another dimension to the team: SEE in clip at 1.05, 1.29, 2.34, 3.50

    Lucas Cook especially looks like he always does something creative with the ball - all passages of play he either hit a target, set up a goal or kicked one himself.

    Also noticeable that Spencer and Gawn seem to be progressing nicely.

    Nice to see Matthew Bate look like he's dominating at VFL level also. I hope he can reinvent himself.

    • 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.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

      Following an injury-interrupted start to the season, McVee struggled to maintain the standard he established in 2025 as he pursued an expanded role within the team structure. He remained a firm fan favourite and the club had hoped to negotiate a new contract with the former rookie selection from Western Australia, whose partner, Lily Johnson, plays for Melbourne's AFLW side. Those hopes were dashed when he expressed his desire to return to his home state and play for Fremantle. Like all players who have worn the red and blue and are leaving this year, we wish him well in the future.
