Gawn - our singular champion

Hannan - cruelled by injury 

Harmes - success as tagger

Hibberd - seemingly rarely fit

Hore - courageous and promising 

Hunt - rarely beat opponent

Jetta - never got going

Jones - time has elapsed

Keilty - didn’t show out

O.McDonald - rarely surprised supporters

T.McDonald - our biggest disappointment

Melksham - best rarely seen

Neal-Bullen - rarely justified selection 

Oliver - prolific, rarely outstanding 

Petracca - exciting in bursts 

Petty - showed some promise 

Preuss - rarely justified selection

Salem - disappointing second half 

T.Smith - tried but deficient 

Spargo - just a schoolboy 

Stretch - has exhausted chances

Viney - never got going

C.Wagner - only Casey standard

J. Wagner - like his brother

Weideman - poor before injuries

 

I find myself disagreeing with your 3 word analysis often - but this one is pretty much spot on. 

 

Great summation Joeboy.  Have enjoyed your work all season - much more than the performance of the team.


 

Goodwin - clock is ticking

Football department - trade period important

National Draft - need an A-grader 

 

T Mac was very disappointing in the first half of the year but I feel this assessment would’ve been different had he not got injured.

In 2 of the last 3 games he played, he had a direct influence on our wins vs Freo and Carlton and appeared to be on an upward trajectory.


Retired

Lewis & Maynard

Need 5-6 more to go

Garlett - cooked

Hannan - between injured and too big a difference from his very good to awful

J Wagner - tries hard but lacks skill & reading of the game

keilty - good - very good VFL, just not AFL

Hore - very good plus at VFL, under pressure at AFL doesn’t make it, very close, Pies let very few good ones go!

T Smith - almost good enough but 29

C Wagner - VFL very very good, maybe survives as back up!!

There are a few older players who need to hit back next year, such as Hibberd and Jetta. I think Garlett will be gone, and I think Jones will get one more year, but won’t be best 22 imo.

VG but a little tough on Hore. I think he has the desire to work on deficiences.

Only two I have major misginings about getting rid of are Hore and Corey Wagner. oth of them were 1st year players and need a bit of time to develop. Hore did not come back from his injured shoulder real well. Cory shwed a bit of go in the last couple of games , enough to indicate he is picking up the pace. A bit like Lockart and Dunkley. A fair bit of upside from all of them.

I don't always agree with your 3 word analysis JoeBoy, but I do enjoy reading them - thanks!

Nice summary joeboy

Lockhart a bit better than a bit player, I think you’ve nailed the rest

Agree. I have high hopes for him. I hope he proves you wrong Joeboy.

  • 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.
