Just thinking, how many of our lads have had suspensions-fines during the last season ? 

I honestly can't remember any.  Are we under the average ?

ARE WE NOT HARD ENOUGH ??????????????

    We were ‘Bad Arzzez’ in 2017 remember. Humble is the word that springs to mind now.

    I think we were harder last year !

    I would love to know the average fine/suspension in the last few years that the Dee's have had ?

    You can be hard at the contest without copping suspensions or fines.  

    Apart from a few players, I think we have a list that is more than happy to go hard at it when it's their turn.  I don't think it's a point of concern for us at all.

    I think you mean “reckless”.  Punching someone in the face or gouging their eyes doesn’t make a player tough. Sniping behind the play isn’t tough. Getting reported isn’t tough, it’s reckless stupidity.

    As for being hard, Jack V, May, Melksham and Oliver are “hard” players. Nate Jones,  Jetta and Gus are not afraid of putting their bodies on the line. That’s toughness.

    Not sure about harder last year I-D. I think we were smarter and more controlled  when showing aggression. The ‘Unsociable Dees’ of 2017 cost us the 4 points a few times, Lewis, Jesse, Salem and Bernie all copping weeks which didn’t help our cause at all.

    A couple of broken collar bones would suggest differently.

    I thought Nathan Jones was high up the 'Fine' list for current players...but he is getting close to 300 games

    • 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.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem   

      Salem proved to be a valuable contributor as a reliable and solid one-on-one medium-sized defender in what was undoubtedly his most impressive season since the premiership year. He remains a highly capable rebounding option for the Demons as he approaches his 200th game at the club.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

      Following an injury-interrupted start to the season, McVee struggled to maintain the standard he established in 2025 as he pursued an expanded role within the team structure. He remained a firm fan favourite and the club had hoped to negotiate a new contract with the former rookie selection from Western Australia, whose partner, Lily Johnson, plays for Melbourne's AFLW side. Those hopes were dashed when he expressed his desire to return to his home state and play for Fremantle. Like all players who have worn the red and blue and are leaving this year, we wish him well in the future.
