    Well done. Tom has earned an opportunity, and hopefully he will grasp it with both hands..

    I saw him get heavily tagged against Sandy? I think? - anyway, he only had half a dozen possessions, so I hope he has been coached well and learnt from that experience.

    Good luck to him.

    In for Magner, I reckon.

    Great news!!! But expectations need to be low and we should not expect him to come in and dominate kicking 4 goals a game for Dees (well here is hoping).

    Not the greatest shot of him in the Hun haha

    oh and ps "He was placed back on the rookie list when Jetta returned to the senior list two weeks ago..." thought so... :)

    Good to see the young fella's hard work rewarded. It'll be interesting to see whether he's thrown into the midfield or used mainly as a half forward

    Not sure if memory serves me correctly, but that may have been the game where he found a way to kick the goal that won the game after a really tough day at the office.

    Guts.

    Magner or Moloney. Hope Magner stays in only because of my Super Coach prospects. Bennell?

    An article on the MFC site confirms it.

    Can we not get fined for this? I thought we weren't allowed to announce inclusions/exclusions prior to 6:25pm.

    Debuts seem to be different. This isnt the first time a club has said xxx to debut. Gibson was the last one from memory. Maybe we can do it for first gamers?

    • 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.
