How does one pronounce "Hulett"? I assumed "Hull-ett" but thought I heard others say "Hew-lett"?

Maybe we just call him Packard.

I've just had a brief chat with a friend of his Mother. She tells me that Hulett is another kid who was in the sights of several clubs before copping injuries in the last year or so. Melbourne have

I've mainly heard "Hew-lett" so far.

Angus says hi!

Hi Angus!

Hey Angus, did you think that you were more prepared to play AFL because of your talent, build, and the position you were asked to play?

Oh, you did?

Thanks for stopping by Angus - I appreciate context.

Same, but I'm not certain it is correct.

Definitely "Hewl-ett" - I went to school with other members of his family, and that's the way it was always said.

Interesting watching his interview on MFC site, he describes himself as a big agressive marking forward, and part of me was thinking Mitch Clark...

Hopefully our recruiters are doing better psychological assessment now.

I can't believe he's 18. He would definitely have been the one who bought the booze for his mates. 

Spot on there 'P-man', I thought he was another mature age recruit that I hadn't heard about.

Looks a strong kid though, really interested to watch his progress.

Went along to training this morning. First time I've seen Hulett, he is one big boy. Very similar body shape to Vanders.

i hope he gets a run this weekend. Excited to see him crash a few packs too.

Wormburner - I haven't had the chance to see him. 

Where would you see him playing at this stage? Flank?  Forward? Back?

Hopefully eventually KPP forward or back?

To me he looks like he'd be a third tall up forward, from the limited amount I've seen of him I don't think he's ready to be KPP forward yet.  He'll worry a few opposition players with his height and size though....bring it on!

He looked the goods at training this morning. He certainly had no trouble finding the sticks.

Wonder if he is any chance they may give him a run this weekend?

Back to Vanders for a moment. He was next to M Jones on the weekend and was quite a bit taller. Both are listed at 188cm. Find it hard to believe that Matt is that tall and Aaron that short. It is a good situation for us when an irresistible force like him is behind N. Jones, Viney, Tyson and Vince in the midfield pecking order. Starting to get good depth running through the middle

He stood next to Hogan at one stage and he honestly not much shorter. Would love to know the players actual height. 

Wouldn'thurt the MFC website to actually update the players height and weight you know....

vandenBerg was noticeably taller when standing next to Broadbent on the weekend. 

Broadbent is listed at 189cm.

Clearly vandenBerg is taller than 188cm.

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

    PODCAST: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    Join us LIVE on Monday night at 8:30pm—note that this special time is just for this week due to prior commitments. We'll break down the Match SIM against North Melbourne and wrap up the preseason with insights into training and our latest recruits. I apologize for skipping our annual season review show at the end of last season. After a disapponting season filled with off-field antics and a heated trade week, I needed a break. Thankfully, the offseason has recharged me, and I’m back—ready t

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
