I was hoping he might have got a look-in last weekend - even as the sub.
Need some youth and energy in the team.
 

 

i hope we never 'debut' a player as a sub

hate it when others - particularly geelong, who seem to only do it this way - do it

Taj made his debut this year. I liked the signs in the limited opportunities.

Taj has some run and skills and smarts to make a very good player. Probably an outside mid/wing running player.
Hopefully they give him more chances in 2024.

he's played more afl games than his dad at the same age...

i personally think his best role is an inside mid - he's the next cab off the rank given jj is out the door for that role

Personally don't see him as an inside bull.   Yes on occasions but mostly an outside receive role for mine with a portion of inside work when needed.

Not saying he couldn't / shouldn't but a bit too much potential class and outside run wasted if we were to push him towards a mostly inside role imho.

Also does he have the physicality / bulk to handle a mostly inside bull role?  Even in the future. 

Again if we pushed him into it yes he might build up but i reckon you then potentially lose a bit of speed / class on the . Outside more critical i would have thought.

And/or on a wing.

Very early days though so anything's possible.

How good do Shane and Taj look can’t believe that it is 23 years since Shane’s Brownlow how exciting was that night.❤️💙. Taj has a good look about him he debuted in a confident manner and has self belief which is so crucial at AFL level. Hope to see him play a lot more next year.!!

I saw him about an hour ago. He definitely still looks pretty fit!

Interesting that when he was drafted I thought he was shorter than his dad. Doesn't look that way anymore.

He is an absolute workaholic and will have a break out next season

Like father, like son.

Looking forward to seeing a lot more of him over the coming years.

IMVHO he would have been a far better sub that the ones we selected in both finals.

I too have heard he is one of the most professional and dedicated young players at the club.

Shades of Billy Stretch.  

Wishing him a long and successful career.

  • Thank You Simon Goodwin

    As Demon fans, we’ve ridden a rollercoaster of emotions over the decades; the heartbreaks, the near misses, the wooden spoons, and the endless waiting. But through it all, we clung to hope. And then came Simon Goodwin. Before he ever wore red and blue, he was a champion in his own right. A five-time All-Australian, two-time Best and Fairest, and two-time premiership hero and Captain with Adelaide, Simon Goodwin was always destined to lead. When he transitioned from the field to the coach's box, first as an assistant at Essendon, he began shaping a new legacy.

  • PREVIEW: Western Bulldogs

    Long ago and far away, the Melbourne Football Club replaced its coach in difficult circumstances after the team suffered a devastating loss. In the aftermath, I penned the following words: “Then came the politics, the intrigue, the axing, the sound of the football world laughing at a club, the circling of the media vultures, the reinvention of history, the anger, the irony, the pathos, the hurt on the face of the president, the dignified departure of the coach, and the determination of the newly appointed caretaker.” Today, we’re back in the same place although one difference here is that the coach who was terminated this time is Simon Goodwin, the man who four years ago

  • REPORT: West Coast

    The Charles Dickens novel, A Tale of Two Cities, opens with, “It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, …”  This phrase highlights many of the significant challenges that humanity encounters in life, ranging from experiencing remarkable highs to living in times of despair. This is a concept that should resonate with all supporters of the Melbourne Football Club this morning as they reflect on its comprehensive 83-point victory over the struggling West Coast Eagles at Marvel Stadium. The outcome proved beyond doubt that they are the worst of clubs and that we are the best of the worst.

  • PREGAME: Western Bulldogs

    With only 3 games to go, all against Top 8 fancies, the Demons face a daunting task as they return to the MCG when they play the Western Bulldogs. Who comes in and who goes out?

    The Demons return to town fresh off a thumping win over the back-to-back wooden spooners, the West Coast Eagles, played in front of a sparse crowd at Marvel Stadium, the same venue that hosted last week's heartbreaking loss.
