Strange fixture.....men against boys... what can go wrong?

The Preuss lacerated Jye Caldwell's kidney last year in the same fixture.

I would've thought it would make more sense to distribute each of these kids in to different VFL games so they could play as the 22nd/23rd men in flanker type roles that kept them away from the hot stuff, but this is a good test for them.

In that game last year the under 18 academy side thrashed North Melbourne.

It seems that they’ve given a few of the younger brigade in Sparrow, Bedford and Chandler some time off. Jay Lockhart, the resting emergency. No Maynard.

A few others can expect limited game time in case they’re required on Anzac Eve.

AS WJ says it's probably designed to give the young bodies a rest but it would have been good to see them in a free flowing game.

Not sure what it is about the VFL comp but it seems to involve a lot more packs. Perhaps it just looks that way when you watch the game from boundary level.

Managing the list for Wed?

I reckon Sparrow will be an 'In',  against the Tiges....    and maybe another small defender  'in',  as well ?   we need more speed against Richmond.  and Preuss in to stretch the Tigers tall backs.

We don’t want to win by too much

I don't think Sparrow is anywhere near ready for senior "recall"

Well, we'll know by Monday,  I reckon.

hey guys, is there anyone in the under 18s we should be looking out for our first pick? we have our first round pick this year I'm pretty sure so that could fall anywhere from pick 8 to pick 12 as s personal guesstimate 


So if Pruess doesn’t get up then Lockhart comes in???! Must be pretty sure big P is right to go!!

Keilty only playing half the game as he is an emergency for this arvo

It is not as though Bedford or Chandler are likely to be surprise inclusions! Sparrow maybe? ?

This must mean Preuss is playing then.  No way would Keilty be playing a second of the curtain raiser if Preuss was under a cloud or out.

Unless O Mac comes in for Preuss, which would not make much sense.

  • PODCAST: 2026 Season Preview

    The boys previewed the 2026 Season sharing their early impressions of the new coach, the new players, observations from preseason training, and what they've made of the new game style. They also look ahead to the season with their predictions, the players they expect to rise, their expectations for the team, and what they see as a realistic pass mark for Melbourne in 2026.

  • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

    When the Demons blew their 46-point lead at Marvel Stadium in Round 20 last year, the fallout was enormous. Like an event straight out of a Shakespearean tragedy, Melbourne’s final-quarter collapse left fans reeling and the club grappling with the aftermath.

  • PREGAME: St. Kilda

    With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

  • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

    Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

  • REPORT: Richmond

    Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.

  • POSTGAME: Richmond

    The Dees ran another clinic for the second week in a row as they easily accounted for the Tigers in the lightning interrupted shortened match at Mars Stadium in Ballarat.
