Talking Point: Will age be a barrier to players getting games at Melbourne in 2015?

Physically Brayshaw and Petracca look capable of playing AFL fulltime next year.

Both ANB and Stretch are coming off playing senior football in the SANFL, this was a good platform for Trengove in his first year.

I think all those players are more than capable. If their form warrants a game, Roos won't keep them out of the side.

Salem got games this year and he was coming off a limited pre-season where he had issues.

Age won't be a barrier.

    I did a 13 beep test a few months ago... 193cm, 100kgs...

    I don't mind the beep test but if you are half fit, you should be able to get in the teens rather easily.

    I just wouldn't equate it to competitive running and sprint work at training.

    Would've got game in our forward line last year with those stats.

    It's crossed my mind watching them the last few years...

    And I just meant that a beep test is more a measurement of fitness relating to endurance rather than a way of building endurance - which is the harder work and that would be why Petracca finds it tougher at AFL training than in a 12 min measurement.

    • GAMEDAY: Brisbane

      It's Game Day and the Demons return to the MCG after a dismal performance in Gather Round to face the reigning dual Premiers Brisbane. What do expect to see from the Dees today?

    • PREVIEW: Brisbane

      They really had me fooled when I picked them with great confidence to beat the Bombers at Gather Round last week. I should have recognised that nothing is more quintessentially Melbourne than defeating the undefeated early premiership favourite one week and losing to a winless cellar dweller on its way to establishing a record losing streak the next.

      The Demons return to Melbourne and the hallowed turf of the MCG where they face dual reigning Premiers Brisbane on Sunday. Who comes in and who goes out?

      Melbourne’s much vaunted finishing power evaporated at Adelaide Oval on Saturday afternoon, exposed for the third time in four years by its Essendon Gather Round hoodoo.
