    What an amazing pick up he has been for the club; watching him at the ground helps you understand his speed of thought and ability to make good choice under incredible pressure.  would have made an amazing fighter pilot

    The speed he moves at whilst fully bent over to pick up the hard ball, then rarely ever fumble it, is just something else. You see players do it now and then, he does it every single time. And has 3 options sorted before he’s picked it up. 

    Freak talent, that I think only us Dees will ever truly appreciate. Maybe if he’s highlighted in a finals series/flag the plebs will take full notice.

    Do it next week against the Pies and I think you will see the recognition flow especially as he adds sublime kicks to his sublime handballing.

    Big test for Gus as well

    Just read the Oliver article in the HS.  My fav part was when he said he thought he was going to the Bombres at 5.

    Like all those that missed out on Fyfe & Franklin, selected Fiora over Pavlich, left Dustin Martin to pick 3, etc...

    Weitering at pick 1 hasn’t really come on as expected just yet, and Mills has been serviceable, but imagine being the Brisbane Lions having chosen Shache at pick 2 in that draft. Walked out on them after 2 years, and they seemed happy for him to go.

    What a blunder.

    • REPORT: Adelaide

      The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.

    • CASEY: Coburg

      The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

    • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

      After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
