No Jetta in the 40, which I agree with.

He had quiet patches in the season.

    Maxy and Clarry the only Dees included in the squad of 40. Congratulations boys

    And both will be in the 22.

    Nev stiff to miss the 40 but a year where there were a number of good small and mid defenders that had great seasons.

    Sounds about right TBH. Nev a little stiff to miss.

    Full seasons to Tmac and Brayshaw and I reckon they may have got the nod

    Jetta is again robbed. So many players get in based on reputation alone. Jetta absolutely deserved to make the squad at least. 

    Well done to Clarry, what a star. Also if Gawn is not the starting ruck, it is an abomination. Grundy gets more fluffy disposals, but as a ruckman your primary job is to service your mids. Gawn has more hitouts to advantage than every club in the competition combined, not to mention the first ever ruckman to get to 1000 hitouts in a H&A season.

    Yeah, Nev was stiff to miss out. I know Gus hasn't played a whole year, but I thought he'd played enough of it (all sublime) to be included anyway. Next year for sure!

    Fair selections and both should be easy locks for the 22.

    Obviously, full seasons to Brayshaw, Tmac wouldve seen them considered. Harmes' second half of the year has also been AA quality.

    Brayshaw stiff not to make the Top 40.

    If there were another 5 games left of the H&A season then he might have made the squad.  The same could be said of James Harmes, Nev Jetta and Tom McDonald.  All have had terrific seasons but I understand their omission as well.

    Yes some lads unfortunate to not make the squad.

    They'll just have to console themselves by being in the Premiership team ;)

    Jetta had to make the squad of 40

    Why ?

    If I was picking 40 I wouldn't include him.

    He was better last year.

    Just looking at other players Harris Andrews is an interesting one, didn't realise he had such a solid season.

    Will be interesting of Gaff makes the 22, he deserves to be there IMO.

    I suppose they didn't pick any real shut down small defenders in the squad anyway, so I don't feel like he missed out to a similar player. They just rate the attacking defenders now it seems.

    tmac should have made squad of 40. still played 17 games and his goal average was about the same as riewoldts

    ended up with 48 goals and tons of score assists and involvements

    demons weren't the highest point scoring club in the comp for nothing and deserved a fwd in the squad

    Could have made a case for TMac given Gunston made the squad.

    Having confirmed Demon haters  Ling, KB and Frawley among the selectors didn't help Gus, Nev or TMac.  Maxy and Clarry were always getting a guernsey though. As Jaded said, it Max doesn't get the No 1 ruck selection it an abomination. Not only that, it will make the entire selection process a joke.

    How is Mark Blicavs in the squad, he is terrible 

    He's had a really good season as a KPD...well deserved.

    Should probably make the AA 22...

    Take off the red & blue glasses '11'.

    • 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?
