No wonder Goody is going all in on Bennell and Murray.

We have negligently overlooked speed and outside run for years; and the penny finally dropped for the so-called brains trust.

 

Now the over-reach and massive gambling.

Trademark logic error from you Rono. Your point all along is that we traded Frost because we don't rate speed and yet here we are looking at other players in the same off season with speed.  Maybe Frost was traded for other reasons?

...but we're not looking at Bennell for speed, it's his absolute class with and around the ball that we're looking at.

Neither Frost nor Murray have that class nor will they ever have it.

...and I don't know that we're even looking at Murray anyway.

The only story on that seems to be a thread on this site.

I always had a soft spot for Frosty, yeah he could make some frustrating turnovers but he always had a red hot go. I wouldn’t be surprised if another club gave him one last go, if not 185 games is a solid career.


Harsh on Frosty. Had a great year last year

Might get a gig somewhere

Spoke to a Hawks supporter about a year ago and he said Sam is a respected person .He won their community award - like a Jim Stynes award.

Well played Frosty.

 

Frostball circa 2018-19 was a fun time.

I think he'll find plenty of suitors if he wants to play on for a fourth club.

I've a bad heart. Not sure i could survive a Frosty return to our backline

Umm, he isn't Betts or Ablett jnr. Surely we're not replacing an old and problematic All Australian defender with an old and problematic NON-All Australian defender. Frosty probably gave it his all - the supporters of two clubs should feel grateful tonight.


My favourite Frosty memory was in a game v Carlton (maybe 2017 I think) with the game on the line when a galloping gazelle streamed across half back and ran forward dodging opponents and saving the game. A wonderful sight.

Had he been able to replicate this regularly and predictably he would have been a keeper.

Thanks Frosty - always a favourite even in the poo and wee colours.

He'd probably get suspended for that these days.


Does he get a podcast invite? He's certainly had an interesting career and might have plenty to reflect on.

I still remember him and May nearly having punch on on the field half way through the game.

RD 9 | Speedy Eagle caught by Frost

then doing a shoddy kick, the highs and low of frostball

Coincidentally both of these respected players have had younger players supersede them and have just been delisted.

    The Demon stalwart surpassed the number of his father's appearances for the club towards the end of the season. As he approaches his thirties, his pace is inevitably slowing, and he is likely to explore alternative opportunities beyond the team's midfield.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: #8 Jake Lever

    The Demon premiership defender who has the reputation the master of intercept possessions as well as great leadership qualities managed only eight senior games this season as he battled injury and form, prompting speculation that he might be enticed to look elsewhere.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: #10 Daniel Turner

    “Disco” took his time (four seasons) but the mid-season draftee has been a shining light of Melbourne's campaign, improving to become a versatile option at either end of the ground. He has great marking skills which allows him to play as a marking target up forward or an intercepting defender down back.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: #11 Max Gawn

    The skipper delivered another outstanding season, leading the team from the front, participating in every game, and earning club champion honours, while also securing an equal record eighth All-Australian blazer as a ruckman.  Max Gawn is arguably the greatest exponent of ruck skills in the history of the game; an exceptional leader who has guided the club to a premiership, through the challenging times that followed, and now into the next phase of its storied history.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: #12 Koltyn Tholstrup 

    It was a frustrating season for the former number 13 draft selection, who failed to build momentum in his second campaign; Tholstrup played only nine games, having been omitted twice and substituted out three times. However, he demonstrated promising signs in the midfield at Casey towards the end of the season, and big things are anticipated from him in the coming years.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: #13 Clayton Oliver

    Clayton Oliver, a four-time best and fairest winner at the club, has navigated a challenging period over the past two years, marked by injuries and personal issues, but has demonstrated promising signs suggesting a return to his optimal form in 2025. He is presently contracted to the club for an additional five years, with a substantial annual salary of approximately $1.7 million in the final seasons of his agreement. All at Melbourne are eagerly anticipating his resurgence to his previous peak performance levels.
