    Hopefully Jurrah will get a game this week, even if it's just a half in the VFL ressies to get him moving around on a footy field. Will be interesting to see how long it takes for him to get into the seniors.

    Sylvia ?

    Sylvia was good to go last weekend... didn't play because of his deferred suspension.

    Sylvia and Jurrah to make comebacks over the few weeks...add Strauss (maybe?) can Blease lift? Pettard? and things are shifting......

    Hopefully Rory Taggert is ready to play some footy at Casey.

    Just a quick report from today's training. Sylvia, Taggart, Petterd, Strauss, Viney and Jurrah all took their places with the main group for a 2 hour session this morning.

    Training consisted of lap work, short kicking, circuit work, a bit of match-play, some competitive handball and tennis ball work, and finished with goal kicking practice.

    Jurrah looked a little tired during the latter session with the tennis ball, but he completed the full session. He didn't seem at all bothered by his bandaged wrist.

    There was no sign of Evans, Green, Jetta, Tynan and Gawn. Williams and Lawrence also unavailable due to a bout of gastro. Gotta keep them away from the rest of the squad.

    Martin, Gysberts and Frawley were on a restricted program; Clark was on a very restricted program.

    If Gysberts has a sore ankle then it's getting much better. He did numerous sprints and agility work and should be available soon.

    All in all not a bad session, and their spirit was good. Give 'em time.

    Thanks for that Dirty... how was Jurrah's demeanour? Did he appear to be enjoying himself and how was his kicking on goal? Did he look like someone who probably did enough to get a game at Casey on the weekend? (hopefully he matched the KPI's set for him on that score).

    Thanks for the report. How did Viney go?

    He took part in the full session and looks ok. Can kick with eith foot but is mainly a leftie. . He is a fraction taller than Davey and i'm not sure if he will grow much taller, so maybe he will be a shortish nuggety type who shows guts and gets a lot of the ball. If his disposal efficiency is high then he will be a very good player.

    He seemed well. He was joking with the boys, and he did some of his party trick shots at goal (that one where he is behind the boundary line and he bends the ball left to right off his right foot. It went through of course). He needs game time so I'd give him half a game in Casey Seniors. He didn't have any problems marking with both hands, but prefered using his good hand when marking one-handed. After all he's gone through, i think he'd just love to play footy again.

    I know it's been said that he'll need significant time in the VFL before pushing for AFL selection, but does anyone think that due to our early season struggles Jurrah could be back in the team sooner than we think?

  • Quote

    I think a half, then a full game at Casey will probably get him close to selection but with our poor defensive work in our forward 50 he won't play if he's not fit enough.

    • 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.
