    This is great news. Dom had a good year and I reckon the next three will be better. It would be nice if Jesse did the right thing and followed suit.

    Great news, Tyson was really good this year, especially second half and will only get better

    lock 'em in for the long haul Dees!

    Good to sign another talented young midfielder up. He was really good in the s come hakf of this year, back to his 2014 form. He's a valuable player for us going forward.

    Super, super news.  Signed up a year before he needs to, another player who sees a bright future for the club and wants to be a part of it.  Love it.

    Onya Dom! i reckon when he comes OOC next he'll be seen as one of the very best players in the comp

    I did my membership renewal this morning and requested Dom on my card (obviously). Must be a good omen.

    Probably should've put Jesse on instead :cool:

    Great news, we need to get all the key players signed up.

    Love the line in the release 'that he wants to play the rest of his career with Melbourne'

    Just need Hogan to follow and it will be an amazing start to the off-season

    Awesome signing, he's so important to our midfield. So much of his best work goes unnoticed.

  • Quote

    Well done, Dees and well done Dom.

  • Quote

    Fully warmed up to him as a Dee now. Probably won't go down as one of the best GWS-groomed midfielders, but he's a solid B+ grade player

  • Quote

    23 years old, and I reckon he's yet to hit his best footy, in a good midfield he will be a reliable A grade player.

    Great work on resigning Dom! 

    Bring it on!!!

    Don't understand why he's not more highly rated.

     

    Treloar and Tyson are an interesting comparison - former rated as one of the best young mids in the competition, the latter a solid journeyman...underservedly so in my book.

    Treloar is ahead in terms of possession gathering and is flashier. I think that's why he gets the accolades in comparison to the slower Tyson. Treloar moves a lot like Judd, but I'd back Tyson to win a contested clearance before Treloar. Tyson's ceiling is higher IMO, but both are very good players.

    Tyson has a lot of Joey Kennedy about him 'A F'...

    I would agree with that. I wouldn't be at all surprised if Roos had modelled our midfield on Sydney's. Tyson (Kennedy), Viney (K Jack), Jones (Hannebery) and sounds like we were/are into Mitchell as well. Petracca gives us something a little different from the Sydney midfield. That bit of x-factor. And then obviously there's Brayshaw, Salem and possibly the best of them all, Oliver. That's an exciting midfield.

    I think we should be going after top mids in that 23-27 age bracket for the next 5-6 years, but we should also continue to build through the draft. If we can nail picks in the second and third rounds of the draft like Sydney have (Hannebery pick 30, Kennedy traded for late picks and Jack taken in the Rookie Draft), that's how we'll have sustained success.

    But the most important thing for us to do is to continue to re-sign all our young talent. And this signature from Dom is another show of faith in the direction of the club. Such signatures in the coming few years will eventually snowball into the MFC becoming a desirable destination for prospective players.

    Some good comparisons there AF, we just need to keep identifying the talent that is out there and keep improving our list year in and year out. We have the coaching fire power now to actually mould the talent that comes in through the door. There have been a lot of long shots over the years. GO Dee's!!!

    He already is, he is criminally underrated.

    Opposition supporters know how awesome he is, a lot of Demon fans under appreciate him.

    Definitely yet to hit his best footy. Can you imagine when Tyson, Viney, Brayshaw, Stretch, Petracca etc are around the 25-27 mark?

    Now that gets me extremely excited.

    • AFLW REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      We’re back! That was fun. The Mighty Dees’ Season 10 campaign is off toa flying start with a commanding 48-point winover the Western Bulldogs, retaining the Hampson-Hardeman Cup in style. After a hard-fought first half in slippery conditions, the Dees came out in the second half and showcased their trademark superior class, piling on four goals in the third termand never looked back.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

    • CASEY: Box Hill

      The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.

      The final game of the 2025 Season is finally upon us and the Demons may have an opportunity to spoil the Magpies Top 4 aspirations when they face them on Friday Night. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Hawthorn

      The Demons were sloppy all day and could not stop the run and carry of the fast moving Hawthorn as the Hawks cruised to an easy 36 point win. Is the season over yet?
