I reckon they want to play both.

Garlett won’t be around forever, so I think you’re on to something here!

    One of the things I like about Hannam is that he accelerates into contact and uses his body to impact the opposition.

    For some reason his movement, snaps and leap reminds me of Gary Ablett Snr... which can only be good. 

    That’s actually not too far of a comparison to make, you and the ‘taller player’ comment by @faultydet are great observations!

    Dead set freakiest of freaks. I’ve always maintained that Ablett and Carey are the only two players I would pay to go and see if Melbourne weren’t playing

    And to think that Yablett Junior is as good or even better.

    I saw Mitch this arvo at my local supermarket. I nearly knocked into him in the fruit and veg. Every isle i turned into he was there. Honesty, I wasn't following him. 

    Libba jnr was there as well. Fortunately they didn't go into the chemist's across the road together

    Well done to Mitch. Took his opportunity with both hands and was a key factor in the win that got us to the finals for the first time in 12 years.   13 touches, 6 marks, 3 goals, great pressure and almost a couple of huge grabs.

    Wouldn't be surprised if he gets votes from the coaches.   A dangerous player who will only get better.   ?

    Did not think he had it in him, but he was absolutely instrumental in that win.

    Him, Melksham and Hibbo as Ins absolutely won us the game.

    Weids also more than held his own.

    So glad we have this bloke locked up.....  he is such an X factor and he has shown he can deliver in big moments and big games.  Love watching him play.

    I wonder IF we should term it Locked ON... rather than locked In, or Locked Up?

    Very tidy, Handgun Hannan, very tidy indeed. Keeps his feet in a contest, quick along the ground, can take hangers, tackles and harrasses, kicks all types of goals.

    What more could you ask for from Handgun, both he and Fritta are prime examples of the schrude trade business we have completed around our close range picks.

    Hannan a poor man G.Ablett snr,perhaps Petracca is the poor man's A.Jakovich, T.Mac the poor man's W.Carey. We have lots of poor man's whatevers but overall who cares as long as we keep winning.

    Has been a great addition since coming to the Dees, to average a goal per game is not bad considering how many other forward options we have ATM.

    It would be great if it could be C. Wagner.

    • 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.

    • 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.
