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 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.

    I am told it's Hugh-Let.

    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.

      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.
