A real asset that the MFC seems to have at the moment for attracting and retaining players is Goody.  Listening to KK and May talk reciently, big motivating factors in them joining the Demons was the impression that Goodwin made on them and the vision he was able to articulate for their role in the team.  Probably quite a similar story with Milkshake and Hibbard with respects to their relationship with Goodwin.  It's particularly the case at lower level footy that the sucessful coaches are the ones that are able to attract and get good footballers wanting to play for the club and I really see this as starting to play out in our favour with Goody's interpersonal skills and the team culture which has been reestablished at the MFC giving us an edge over our opposition for building and maintaining a quality list in the era of salary and football department caps etc.

    Salem and Kelly are best mates. I'm sure we'll be doing everything in our power to bring them together a la Lachie Neale and Lincoln McCarthy at Brisbane.

    Is Kelly anywhere close to entering the FA window?  If Richmond can land Lynch, then I don't see why we couldn't land Kelly.

    It’s so fortunate that Stuart Dew rejected us.

     Melbourne: Sam Weideman

    With Jesse Hogan traded to Fremantle, Sam Weideman is now vital to Melbourne’s success going forward.

    He had a breakout month at the end of 2018, but will need to prove he can do it across the season.

    Regardless, Weideman and the Demons will both want to work out a long-term deal as soon as they can.

    Others: Christian Salem, Nathan Jones, Alex Neal-Bullen

    With the exception of Kelly and Coniglio who else would you want to target from other clubs?

    Weideman's rate of progress was curtailed by the make-up of our forward line last season - IMO. Given more responsibility in 2019, he should be capable of bringing more attributes to the fore, more regularly. There is greater support for his role in the proposed availability of key talls that is floating around in supporters' minds for the 2019 season and this support, and its related decoys for opponents, should be of immense value to his 'eventual' emergence. The flexibility of the forward line now looks twice as functional and multi-dimensional than last season. TMac, Preusse, the Melk, Hannan, JSmith, Gawn, Petracca, Garlett (who will also benefit); all looks pretty lethal if utilised to effect.

    What a frightening thought, Kelly in our current mix. It would shake the comp on game day.

    Asides to his value to our team, how enjoyable would it be for the Weid to have a long and prosperous career with the MFC and by doing so getting right up the nose of the filth.

    And the dream of him kicking the winning goal in a grand final against the filth. Purely orgasmic.

    In 2021 he should be a restricted FA

    If the weed has a good year and doesn't re sign during the year watch out for McGuire and the filth throw everything at him. Must re sign him during the season.

    We need him to at least sign a 2 Yr extension by Mid 2019. 

    We do not want other clubs in his ear throughout this 2019 season, distracting his progress, as the year unfolds towards September.

    We will likely be fighting the Pies, amongst others in September... and so don't want e'dy stuffing us around, behind the scenes.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

      Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

    • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

      Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

    • CASEY: Williamstown

      The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

      Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

      The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
