Noah turns 15 next April.


The Davey boys will not be too far behind. Can you imagine?

Hopefully  he can have a full season  with Colts and then we will know  whether  he is draft material.

I can imagine, but it's not pretty.

My MFCSS tells me that it's time for the AFL (pronounced "awful") to suspend F/S nominations.

New AFL rules to bugger us again

NGA rules  are change but F/S will stay the same, there is opposition to teams getting top player with the NGA, but not with F/S .

let alone john; only a single player named 'john' left in the afl

As "Jack" is the diminutive form of "John", surely there are more than just Jack Reiwoldt.

they're all 'jack' tho; not 'john'

Yes, but Jack is a variant of John, so technically, there are still Johns in the comp ?

  • POSTGAME: Essendon

    Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

  • GAMEDAY: Essendon

    It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?

  • PREVIEW: Essendon

    As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.
