    Does Bontempelli not age?   He has been 22 for 5 years.

    So it is age 'under 22' from the start of the season/year I gather?

    Obviously Lever would be in if not injured for mroe than half the season.

    It is nice to think that from two very strong drafts (2014 and first round of 2015) we've managed to gather perhaps 4 of the top 5 players.

    Also, that age category method means Fritsch still has next year, and you'd have to be pretty confident he'll get there.

    Its just nice, y'know, just nice.

    Clarry, He is a Gun footballer, Angus  and Petrac  they are not far behind. Congrats on making the under 22 side. The 3 Amigo's will be on display against the Cats next Friday and beyond.  Beware of the 3 Amigo's for the next  decade. They're out to get ya!

    Scene: it's September (or near as dammit).

    Instead of studying the likely early draft picks, you are getting fired up about finals tickets.

    You are studying the AA team, alternately gloating, and groaning that MORE Demons were not recognized.

    You are studying the 22under22, gloating/groaning.

    You are wondering if Max will finish 1st or 2nd in the Brownlow.

    You are feeling remarkably at peace with the world.

    Now the question, true or false: ARE YOU DREAMING?

    Anyone know the list of players that have made both All Australian and the under 22 team?

    It must be a special achievement by our Clarry.

    Botempelli, Josh Kelly and Zac Merrett would be my first guesses.

    What's obvious from this year's team is how long it takes to develop as a ruckman.  Most of those picked are comfortably in their sides best 22.  Not to be disrespectful to Darcy, but he'd struggle to get a regular game at most teams.  Looks like Trac has to come off the bench to relieve in the ruck as well.

    The only AA in the side and not captain? But I am biassed.

    Presumably from the start of the AFL season. Patrick Cripps turned 23 on 18 March. I can only assume he missed out on age rather than for any other reason.

    And what a world of pain St Kilda is in. At least Carlton, Brisbane and Freo have some young stars.

    Gresham and Ronke on the ground before Trac. 

    Please! 

    I agree with you regarding Ronke, however Gresham has had a much better season the Trac,

    • 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.
