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

Broadbent is listed at 189cm.

Clearly vandenBerg is taller than 188cm.

Or clearly Broadbent isn't 189cm...

    Yes, it would be one or the other.  Thanks for pointing that out.  I'm sure it would escape many.

    Based on your up close experience of vandenBerg and his size, what do you think is more likely ?

    Haven't seen the guy up close so I wouldn't know.

    Just pointing out that neither listing is 'clear' if Vandenberg is noticeably taller than Broadbent, which is what you claim.

    Yeh, it would be one or the other. But the way you worded the last sentence implied that the listing for Broadbent is correct and the listing for Vanders is wrong. So it sounded like it did indeed escape you.

    Cheers.

    I'm a little surprised Liam (or even Weideman) wasn't selected to play this weekend in the light of the club deciding to rest Hogan.  He's only 18 and he appears to already have such an imposing and mature figure. Will be interesting to see how he plays in the Casey practice matches.

    Considering there's been speculation that vandenBerg is taller than his listed height I'm surprised your confused. 

    Let's move on...

    That'll be MISTER  Hulett to us mere mortals. Bit like that other fellow... Banner bloke on a dark day....without the clorophyll effect !! :o

    Obviously he looked upon more as depth atm... Our depth players have got a little bit more imposing of late !!~ :)

  • Quote

    Can't help but think that come the end of the year he will be ahead of Dawes and behind Pedersen as a forward, assuming Frosty ends up in the backline. Would have thought Dawesy's got to be looking down the barrel at the end of the year. Would love to be proved wrong and see him have the year we've all been waiting for but I suspect times up.

    Because he was born on the 17th of March 1997!

    (but he'll be 19 soon)!

    OMG the guy, still a teenager, looks an absolute monster.  And I hear he can play too. 

    I am also surprised, given that Jesse is being rested, that he didn't get named.  

    Looking forward to hearing how quickly he comes on at Casey.

    You don't think we should welcome new draftees to the club ?

    BY that logic, there's not much point having a forum at all.

    If you want to play him as the third tall you need him to defend, pressure the ball carrier. He's not there yet. Patience people.

    Because its the DEMONLAND way to gush over someone & pump them up to win a Brownlow before we even have a clue about whether they can play or not.  

    Some of the comments about Hulet's potential are bordering on idiotic.

    The same supporters of course will start screaming to delist the same player after 5 or 6 games if they haven't cemented a spot in the side.

      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.
