I have this feeling in the Pit of my gut that the Blues might actually beat us back into being a decent team.

Richmond were well behind us and went pass us with not too much trouble the Blues may well do the same.

I had that very feeling when Malthouse started at Carlton.

    At present I'm not so sure 'old dee' but as you say, we've been here before.

    I think the young talent on our list is way ahead of the Blues at this stage. They really only have one young gun I rate, Cripps.

    I hope we add to our young brigade this year as we've had to mix and match to get a spread across our list and cover the dearth of experience bringing in Cross, Vince and 'H'.

    The Saints & Dogs have been able to go for pure young talent and back it up with their own senior players who have experience playing in successful sides and this should not be undersold.

    We've had to import and it's hurt us a lot. I don't think even Roos understood the depth of the damage that had been done.

    Our club has been so poorly managed in the past, it's a disgrace what was allowed to happen at the MFC...

    it certainly was.

    I am amazed how often people on here have given me a rough time for mentioning a few years back...

    CS had better not run into me, i will cane him...

    • 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.
