Small forward?

We need a Betts/Milne/Ballantyne type to sit at the feet of Hogan, Dawes, Watts and Clark and to make our forward line borderline unstoppable

Betts type - No, Milne type - No, Ballintyne type - Yes

    As mentioned Banfield is one that could be looked at by way of a delisted free agent (like how we got Gillies), others who could fill that role and be recruited a similar way as they seem to be out of favour with their clubs are Robin Nahas or Leroy Jetta, both have shown an ability to rotate through the midfield.

    Good suggestions. They would both be suitable and I really like what Nahas did last year. It's surprising that he isn't a regular in their team this year. He is probably the most difficult to get out of the Nahas/Jetta/Banfield bunch.

    Neither have been able to go through the midfiled and it's part reason why they are playing in the 2's.

    As I said to a Richmond mate, they will never win a flag with Nahas and King in the side, like their endevour but they are just not good enough.

    Do we need to select any more players who don't add real value.

    If we're going to target a small crumbing forward in he VFL Chris Michaliades with Sandringham Zebras is the man for us IMO.

    Sadly, Chris Michaliades passed away this week aged 29. He represented the VFL and also played for Port Melbourne.

    Shockingly sad news to hear. He was a talented player. Feel for his family and friends.

    • 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.

    • 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.
