I'm not in favour of continuing a tradition of MFC being a retirement home, but I think with our extremely young list and lack of early draft picks, it might be the right time for us to pick up one or 2 seasoned campaigners to contribute and be a good influence amongst the playing group.

With Port not renewing his contract, Schulz is on the lookout for a new home.
Hogan still needs someone to help him out that isn't Dawes, and if he could pass on some of his kicking ability we'd be popping corks.

Wouldn't cost a lot and would ease the workload put on Weideman/Hulett who I don't think will be ready to be full-time members of an AFL forward line.

    As long as he brings his walking frame and his step ladder. He looks like he breaks his back whenever he jumps for the ball.

    Petrie looks in better shape.

    I'm a little torn on this one. Would recruiting Schulz and playing him, rob one of our young key talls of a year's development? Probably. Would his spot be better used on another player? Dunno.

    Great contribution, huh?

    Put a fork in him - he is done.  

    Port would keep him if he was right

    Very good player in his day but he's well and truly done and has been for the better part of 18 months. Pass for mine.

    Fill the AFL with people who have been smart players and made effective use of their talents the way Shultz has, and I'd be a happy spectator every week.

    Lots of respect for him, but not a place on the Demon's list.

    kicking coach for Hogan ? ( had to be said)

  • Quote

    Unless said experienced player is also capable of helping out in the ruck i'm not interested.

    That's why i have some interest in Petrie, but none in Schulz.

    Even if you're kidding, it's not that bad an idea.

    Something needs to be done, that's for sure.

    I think I agree with this the most.

    Yep, that's what I was going for...

    Seems to have broken down this year, did kick 66 in 2014, but he has a desire to play on for a couple more years. It'd be comparable to the Roos getting Waite, we do need that leading forward and someone who can slot a couple of set shots by trade. Only would consider because I don't know if Weid will be able to play that role and our forward line needs a shake up

  • Quote

    Shulz, Petrie, Firrito, Harvey. [censored] it, let's just recruit them all.

    Ted Richards is retiring at the end of the season, I reckon he'd boost our playing age as well, Salem and Grimes should get the job done.

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      When the Demons blew their 46-point lead at Marvel Stadium in Round 20 last year, the fallout was enormous. Like an event straight out of a Shakespearean tragedy, Melbourne’s final-quarter collapse left fans reeling and the club grappling with the aftermath.

    • PREGAME: St. Kilda

      With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

    • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

      Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

    • REPORT: Richmond

      Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.
