IMO Harmes was easily ahead of Viney.

So was May & he only played a few games...

    Viney finishing 3rd was unbelievable. Bring in the auditors.

    I was surprised that Salem didn't finish higher than seventh.

    And surprised that Hunt finished top 10.

    The issue is how much he and his manager are asking. It’s not that we haven’t or don’t want to offer him one.

    The club did offer him a contract. But not for an amount that he deemed sufficient.

    What a fantastic speech by Max. A real leaders speech.

    If he isn’t made Co Captain next year it will be the greatest farce ever.

    Obviously haven't got a clue.

    We're screwed...

    An internal award and wouldn't be the first anomaly Rjay.  Oh well.  Thought Clarry was very close all year but wasn't expecting a tie as such.  Just a very close contest.  Something different anyways and well done to both.

    Frosty should have finished TOP 5 IMO. 

    However l could not see how Viney  did finish so high.  By far  not one of his best seasons.

    Terrible, honestly [censored] terrible. Buckley and Hardwick were the same until they learned to loosen up and actually speak like an actual human. Goodwin won’t connect with the young players talking like that. 

    He needs to connect with the younger generation like I do, throw in some ‘radicals’ and ‘groovy’s’ and refer to things as being ‘hip’. Then they’ll think he’s cool and he’ll get their attention. 

    I was briefly just back in Oz for the first time in 5 years. I reckon he'll need way more Fs and Cs to get the attention of the younger generation.

    The Viney haters just don't get it! They never will! Viney is rated so highly by those closest to him because of his LEADERSHIP!!!!!!

    That's what worries me 'Rusty'...what games are they watching?

    It can't have been this years.

    Do they really have a clue?

    He's rated by the coach, I'm not so sure by the players & he showed very little if any leadership on the ground this season...

    What a weird night. I thought Max would lap the whole field. 

    I get the feeling the Club just wanted to get it over. Good thing to. 

    Max must be Captain, I hope on his own..

    Fun fact.

    This year's B&F is the first time since 2010 that Nathan Jones has finished outside of the top 5.

    Puts it all on the line every time, never shirks an issue! Attack on the ball is second to none. Toughness in the clinches is as good as it gets. Never a sniper... always there for team mates! What blindness is this that has descended on Demonland?

    • 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.
