Only knows one way and that's straight forward! love this guys toughness and willing to take the game on. He is our Steven Morris and will only get better.

Needs to tidy up his disposal but that will come with experience. If you saw some of his SANFL highlights he is a dead eye kick.

Fair to say he has taken over nicho and I think he will find it really hard to break back into the side if Terlich keeps his form up.

You beat me to it! Lacked some polish today, but that will come with game time. You cannot fault this kid's endeavour!

A bit of competition for a spot in the side is just what we need!

for a player who has played 2-3 games he seems to have an old head on his shoulders, which is nice!

and i'm sure he has alot of improvement left in him as he finds his feet at AFL level

 

This blokes a keeper.

Hes doing exactly what every player should do, and that is go 100% hard 100% of the time and never give up until the ball is dead

Kid is a warrior

So far neelds recruiting doesn't look too bad. Terlich, Viney, Jones, Byrnes and even pedo showed a bit today.

Love the way he doesn't get discouraged when he makes a mistake. Just puts his head down and works his ass off to make up for it. We need more attitudes like his.

 

Reminds me a bit of Wrecker.

Can't really remember what it was specifically but there was a passage of play where he not only put in a hard second effort but then he put in the third. He won me over at that point.

I am a fan of this guy. He comes from up Albury way, so I spose i was following him closer than the other recruits.

I cant be more impressed. As commented hes only played 3 games. He definately looks a long term player.

Hes hard, quick, skillfull. Can only see him getting better.

I was particularly impressed, I think in the last Q, not by a bad fumble running into the 50 but by his second and third efforts in getting his own ball back. Gutsy stuff and a shining example to many of his colleagues.

He is a kamikaze player - and even though he gets caught from time to time, he stays strong and can get a disposal away.

Not overly skilled but I like what he brings to the table. If we were to play in a final tomorrow (LOL) I'd be picking him ahead of much more skilled teammates who perhaps don't possess his kamikaze approach (you know who I'm referring to).

Does Neeld get credit for bringing him to the club or does Todd Viney as the head recruiter at the time?

I had the same thought today! He is a really hard worker and loves the tough stuff. People can bag Neeld all they like about his game day coaching (which obviously needs improvement) but I think the guys he has brought into the club via the drafts are exactly the guys we need - tough and willing to do the hard yards to get better. No Morton's on Neelds watch.

Dean is what the game's always been about.

Jack should have a close look.

Pretty sure he stuffed up a kick around half forward but kept running with GWS players all over him and he tackled and kept going for the ball again and eventually held it up in the forward line. Mistakes don't bother me we are going to make plenty but it's what you do afterwards. He didn't point fingers or just stand there. He busted his butt.

  • NON-MFC: Round 12

    Round 12 kicks off with the Brisbane hosting Essendon at the Gabba as the Lions aim to solidify their top-two position against an injury-hit Bombers side seeking to maintain momentum after a win over Richmond. On Friday night it's a blockbuster at the G as the Magpies look to extend their top of the table winning streak while the Hawks strive to bounce back from a couple of recent defeats and stay in contention for the Top 4. On Saturday the Suns, buoyed by 3 wins on the trot, face the Dockers in a clash crucial for both teams' aspirations this season. The Suns want to solidify their Top 4 standing whilst the Dockers will be desperate to break into the 8.

  • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

    The media has performed a complete reversal in its coverage of the Melbourne Football Club over the past month and a half. Having endured intense criticism from all quarters in the press, which continually identified new avenues for scrutiny of every aspect, both on and off the field, and prematurely speculated about the departures of coaches, players, officials, and various employees from a club that lost its first five matches and appeared out of finals contention, the narrative has suddenly shifted to one of unbridled optimism.  The Demons have won five of their last six matches, positioning themselves just one game (and a considerable amount of percentage) outside the top eight at the halfway mark of the season. They still trail the primary contenders and remain far from assured of a finals berth.

  • REPORT: Sydney

    A few weeks ago, I visited a fellow Melbourne Football Club supporter in hospital, and our conversation inevitably shifted from his health diagnosis to the well-being of our football team. Like him, Melbourne had faced challenges in recent months, but an intervention - in his case, surgery, and in the team's case, a change in game style - had brought about much improvement.  The team's professionals had altered its game style from a pedestrian and slow-moving approach, which yielded an average of merely 60 points for five winless games, to a faster and more direct style. This shift led to three consecutive wins and a strong competitive effort in the fourth game, albeit with a tired finish against Hawthorn, a strong premiership contender.  As we discussed our team's recent health improvement, I shared my observations on the changes within the team, including the refreshed style, the introduction of new young talent, such as rising stars Caleb Windsor, Harvey Langford, and Xavier Lindsay, and the rebranding of Kozzy Pickett from a small forward to a midfield machine who can still get among the goals. I also highlighted the dominance of captain Max Gawn in the ruck and the resurgence in form in a big way of midfield superstars Christian Petracca and Clayton Oliver.

  • POSTGAME: Sydney

    The Demons controlled the contest from the outset, though inaccurate kicking kept the Swans in the game until half time. But after the break, Melbourne put on the jets and blew Sydney away and the demolition job was complete.
