Apart from watching the entire team as we do week in week out, I have seen a few improvements which will no doubt put us in good stead for 2015.

Noticed the last few weeks that one Chunk Jones has gained some serious pace in the offseason..Love having this guy as Captain!

I thought he proved very evasive lately & has gained a yard or two IMO.

Matt Jones appears to be making some better decision making also and taking the game on more with still the odd mistake or two but less of them with an improved skill set.

Roll on round 1..

    No Ethan, what makes you think that?

    I think Matt has the ability to be a very good player for us and hopefully takes his game to the next level this year.

    I hope you're right, but at the moment his game has some serious flaws. He panics and regularly gives off hospital handballs when he's under pressure (although he's certainly not alone here), and is not a great one-on-one defender or tackler. I have also not seen a guy who kicks it to his teammates' advantage less. Just watching the kick you would swear he was actually playing for the other team.

    • 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.
