Posted

Has re-signed with the club 

not sure of the details but lock him in after a break out year

edit: seems to be two more years 

mod edit: This is now CONFIRMED.

 

Woooooo

Thats my boy.

Grats Nibbler you deserve it.

Great news!

Has really embedded himself as a regular 22.  In the top 3 in the league for forward pressure acts!  He is also very unselfish, doesn't try to be the hero and actively looks for teammates rather than bomb away at goals. 

Epitomises 'team first' football.  Reckon he would be a favourite with both coaches and teammates and increasingly with fans.

 

 

Fantastic news. I reckon he has as much upside as any of the youngsters. I was getting concerned he was either homesick or being eyed up as trade bait.

A really good sign when players want to stay, we haven't been here for a long, long time. Frosty next please.

Fair play to him. Has worked his backside off. Is tough inside and has talent too

will only get better


More good news. He has shown so much improvement this season. As have many others.

It's so much better this year than for God knows how long , not to be spending months of discussing will player X stay or go. It was almost always go ?

It's great to be enjoying footy again ??

He is becoming important for us!

Great to see him locked up for 2 more.

Well deserved and will only continue to grow and get better. He's also getting onto the end of a few sausage rolls. 

And he is 1st at the MFC for Goal Assists.

He makes things happen,  and we can now see why they were calling him a draft day steal.

Rapt, testament to hardwork.

Very smart footballer that plays to his limitations. 

 

So according to the past few posts ANB is 1st at the MFC for score assists and 3rd in the whole league for forward pressure acts (corralling, tackling, closing, chasing). Handy combination of offensive and defensive traits. 

The next Rory Sloane!

Craig Jennings just confirmed it on Instagram.


Do yourself a favour and read the article. We knew when he was first drafted that ge was more than football. Glad to see he's kept it up. 

Would have to be most improved player on the list right?

He has gone from an in and under high possession VFL player to a versatile half forward who makes the right decisions at AFL level. He is so valuable because he can also roll into the midfield where he's comfortable with contested football.


Nice article on Nibbler in this morning's Hun. Unfortunately I don't know how to post a link.

Great result for ANB and the club. He'd be top 5 in our B&f so far which is impressive given the company he is in. Well deserved!

He has taken a major step up this year and his ball use has improved out of sight, still surprised to see him #1 for goal assists!

Brendan Mc certainly knows how to develop players.

    Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.

  • GAMEDAY: West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?

  • FEATURE: 1925

    A hundred years ago today, on 2 May 1925, Melbourne kicked off the new season with a 47 point victory over St Kilda to take top place on the VFL ladder after the opening round of the new season.  Top place was a relatively unknown position for the team then known as the “Fuchsias.” They had finished last in 1923 and rose by only one place in the following year although the final home and away round heralded a promise of things to come when they surprised the eventual premiers Essendon. That victory set the stage for more improvement and it came rapidly. In this series, I will tell the story of how the 1925 season unfolded for the Melbourne Football Club and how it made the VFL finals for the first time in a decade on the way to the ultimate triumph a year later.
