    Could be 10 from 10 in his first 10 games.  Simply unbelievable

    Love his hard running, strong tackling and tidy skills.

    Let's hope he challenges Joel Selwoods record of success..

    Looking back, he was an excellent draft pick by JT that mirrored the need by the footy club.  JJ was the youngest player drafted in his year as he scrapped into the eligibility by 11 days. Had played school footy predominately and rose up the draft order on the back of his TAC cup GF performance.  
     

    💙❤️Good skilled ball user 

    💙❤️Wins his own footy 

    💙❤️Good character 

     

    in JT we trust 🏆

    Now I have only watched the first quarter.  JJ had 10 disposals, had a hand in the Swans first 2 goals, disposal by foot was terrible but did dish out some good hand passes.

    On to the second quarter.

    I thought he was one of our best yesterday against Collingwood.  His stat sheet is very impresive for a youngster finding his way.

    Team high for Metres Gained and Score Involvements.  29 disposals at 82.8% efficiancy.

    Was very good on the weekend. 

    Certainly was, just thought he was exactly what we needed for this game.

    If I'm his manager and I'm seeing either Harmes or Sparrow ahead of him in the pecking order for the remainder of the season, I'm encouraging him to explore his options!

    Absolutely. 
    I can totally respect that he’d get a game at most clubs and if he’s struggling to get one at ours he has every right to explore that. 
    He is way way too good to play VFL.

    I'm a JJ fan, and thought he was hard done by at the selection table last year. Whilst others were struggling, JJ would be the first player dropped. He showed his class on Sunday.

    Wouldn't blame him if he walked.

    I really rate JJ. Having watched Adelaide play Port on the weekend, they are setting up nicely to be a force in a few years. The midfield depth is their weakness and I could see him being a good replacement for Rory Sloane (who really wound back the clock last weekend). Sparrow could also be a target. Previously I thought that Sparrow would be the one to keep, and have been expecting him to breakout, but I think he might not have the game awareness and craft of JJ. It might be a fascinating watch this year as to who progresses further.

    I see Harmes as being “I’m Melbourne, Tony”, but maybe we do have to be supportive of him finding a new home if it means we keep both the SA boys

    JJ is from Yarrawonga. Kade Chandler from SA.

    Fair enough for him to wait and see. I hope he stays, but if we win another flag this year someone like him may leave for more money.

    If I had to choose between paying Kozzie and JJ I know who I'm choosing....

    I wouldnt blame him, but id blame the club immensely!   

    A 22yr old AFL-grade midfielder who wins his own footy, uses it very well, is fit/healthy and who's had 360 and 445 possession in his first 2 years.   For all the hyperbole Adam "what's my strengths again" Cerra gets, JJ is a demonstrably better footballer.  Whatever the tough decisions are here, they need to get it done. He's got a 200 game career ahead of him for someone.

    Simple

    JJ > Harmes

    More consistent, better ball use/decision making, better tank, better tackling, pressure, and overall defensively.

    The only thing Harmes does better is also what makes him a liability and thats taking the opposition on with fend off's and breaking tackles. Harmes used to be a great contested mark for his size but even that's gone down hill.

    I love James Harmes and we all know his story growing up a Melbourne Demon supporter etc. He's been a terrific leader and when the team is playing well he still performs well. But JJ is far more reliable now. I hope the FD know this and Harmes becomes the depth player behind JJ.

    I totally agree. Both Harmes and Melksham really shouldn't be getting selected ahead of the likes off JJ.

    Now's the time to be giving the younger ones games.

    • AFLW: 2025 Season Preview

      Ten seasons. Eighteen teams. With the young talent pathway finally fully connected, Women’s Australian Rules football is building momentum and Season 2025 promises to be the best yet. In advance of Season 10, the AFL leadership has engaged in candid discussions with all clubs regarding strategies to boost attendance and expand fan bases. Concerningly, average attendances in 2024 were 2,660 fans per match, with the women’s game incurring an annual loss of approximately $50 million.

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

      The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?

      The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.
