Just a heads up, Keilty's carrying a decent head cold. The Docs at the club gave him some good drugs but don't expect him to come out flying today

I bets the Essendon docs (and others) could get him up.

Kicked into the forward 50 over a few Box Hill players and into the arms of Scott who didn't have to break stride while running back with the flight of the ball. Scott marked 20 metres out directly in front and kicked the goal.

Brilliant hardworking high possession games by JKH , Kent and Kennedy, look like they really want it. Weideman is back and how, with six goals.

Trengove went ok but has definitely lost that zip he had in his early years, can't see him ever getting a senior game with the depth we have nowadays least 5 or 6 players ahead of him.

Loved watching our Ressies in the demon jumper - something so simple as wearing the same jumper as the Seniors makes the alliance much more tangible.

A few of my observations from watching on TV.

JKH very impressive, but he's got a few ahead of him in the first 22 playing that role. He needs an AFL level second string to his bow because he won't push out Oliver, Viney, Jones etc.

Maynard is great physically and for clearances, but unless that was a particularly bad day his disposal is way below AFL standard and will need rectification. He makes vandenBerg's disposal look classy.

White and Trengove both excellent skills and decision making at this level (although I thought Trengove was injured he was so quiet in the third quarter) but I don't know they have the physical traits for AFL. Or at least not for Goodwin's game plan.

Weideman wasn't so much the 6 goals that were great, but his straight kicking and aggression in the air that impressed and is clearly AFL level for mine.

Spencer very fumbly, is out of form.

Hulett, I just don't see what he could be at AFL level unfortunately.

Kennedy as usual very effective, but not dissimilar to JKH in he won't push out the genuine midfielders for Melbourne, so what's his other position at AFL level?

Kent was solid as a midfielder. Unlike JKH and Kennedy, he definitely has the traits as he's proved before to play AFL level Other than midfield. Definitely above the shoulders for him.

Johnstone doesn't get much of the ball, but his work off the ball looks good.

Kielty I think could be stuck in between sizes and positions for AFL. Seems to have solid judgement though.

King obviously still getting back into the swing of things.

I wouldn't be surprised to see trade time interest in JKH and White in particular if another team can put them in genuine midfield and half back flank spots respectively. Kent as well if he is on the outer.

I also agree with others the Fritsch will get an AFL chance. Has class and poise and with a bit of physical development could be a Tory Dickson style player.

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
