Maxy's favourite ruckman!!!

On a related note to this trade Tyson wouldn't have hit the target that The Big Prussian hit with the kick from the free.

    North board on BF saying they feel the new ruck rules will suit his style. He’s left there for greater opportunity so it will be interesting to see how he gets utilised. He obviously likes the plan we’ve put forward for him.

    Welcome aboard Prussian (love it) ?

    Similar attributes to Gawny so if we can get him on the program that Gawn’s on he will be a beast !

    Not saying he can’t kick goals or mark but we really need to work on those attributes so he can be more than just “Gawns back up”. He could become a dangerous tall up forward with TMac & Weids while being a very handy option to Max Gawn in the ruck when Gawn has a rest or plays up back/forward.

    If he followed a similar trajectory to Mason Cox when playing forward we will be unstoppable next year.

    Up forward, Preuss will give both the Weed and TMac heaps of options to lead forward of the goalmouth. He could also be handy for a smaller crumber for snaps. Great potential for the team.

    He comes in for specific ruck match ups against certain clubs ... and to prolong Max’s career.

    Looking forward to those games where Preussy starts in the centre square and opposition defenders shite themselves as Big Max struts down to the goalsquare!

    mahoney good on that update - sounds as fed up with freo's bs as everyone on this board

    Tells it like it is, and doesn't stuff around with delusional scenarios - hello peter bell (not worthy of capitals)

    Im happy with this. It gives Max more of a break and this guy is massive so he can go forward to. It means hopefully weiderman and Tom know longer have to do ruckwork and can stay down forward.

    Welcome to the club big Preuss! Just as a thought for a solution with our defensive questions, could we play Preuss back there a bit? Big body, surely wouldn’t be outmarked too many times, his recruitment also throws up the ability to swing Jesse, Sam, or TMac back at times. 

    Maxxy’s statement of my “favourite ruckman” (while perhaps a little bit of comedy) does have me hopeful that they’ll work well together.

    Probably a bit high brow for the Demon hoi polloi. ( Proust is boring anyhow. As boring as Gerald Murnane.)

    Great result. Gawn gets what he needs and our options grow.

    Boy we are big next year...

    Calculated risk, still relatively unproven but he’ll be in the right environment to grow.

    • The Clayton Oliver Thread

      Melbourne have held talks with Clayton Oliver and they’ve laid out where he fits in under Steve King’s vision and been frank about expectations. Oliver is still under contract for five years, but the door is open if he wants to explore his options elsewhere.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

      It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

      The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

      The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.
