Believe it or not but I had Collingwood as a second team back in the mid seventies. Under Tom Hafey they played a good game of football.

Don't worry I saw the light in 1988 when abused by a little old lady magpie supporter for cheering a Melbourne win.

Since then GWS has been my second team. For a while they were like a fantasy football league

He signs his name with #34, that says to me he's coming our way. I'm more confident now than I was last year.

Yep 

 

He’ll be a Dee barring some late winds change — ie upheaval or sudden major decline that looks unrecoverable.. but can’t see that as even IF absolute worst happened & we lost Trac, Clarry, Max next year and even Kos, I honestly blv the haul we’d gain in conjunction with our young talent means it’d be a 2-4yr skid at most! But my current feeling is that this group now is closest thing we’ve had talent and fitness wise to our 2021 group, line by line, 90% doing 90% of pre season etc so of course that can all change but KW a demon is about $1.27 for mine 😉

Pricing KW.

It's triggering my cost of living angst.

Call me paranoid, but I fear the AFL will pull some sort of swiftly on us, again. 
Q: is it paranoid when you know actually and truthfully they are out to get you?

Wonder if he was also down here signing some paperwork with Tim lamb 😉

I am confident he will end up with us. However, he is a young and skinny,  and I really don't see him being a good AFL player until about 2028  - he will need to fill out, and learn the senior game. This is absolutely not a knock on him, but you can't be a ruckman or a key position player until you have some weight and strength.

yeah, expect he will have similar trajectory as sam darcy

If he does, we’ve hit the jackpot. Sam Darcy will be the best player in the game within the next 2 years. He also progressed extremely quickly for a tall.

Or he may be like Mac Andrew and not be worried about his weight.

Perhaps you may need some sort of counselling. It couldn’t happen again. Look at it from a half glass full not empty. 

It was a dreadful act by the AFL and some compensation should have come our way.

well so do i wish.   but i was just talking of development trajectory, being a similar height and body profile.

Counseling  for paranoia never helps, because the counselors are really part of the plot and are out to get you 🙄

Just coz you're paranoid doesn't mean they're not out to get you!

Sam Darcy was drafted in 2021, he only just started coming on last season so it's taken him a few years to get to the level.

Ian Cooper was very skinny...

Still feel we needed to draft or trade in a ruckman in the 22-26 age bracket ready to take over from Max in a couple years, even if we get this kid it's ganna take time

Liam Reidy is the one we should look at end of 2025

    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.
