    The interesting part is that he thinks only 1 or 2 players will miss Rd 1, not including Bennel, KK and Neita. Preus being an obvious pick I’m guessing either May or Vanders. How’s Hannan been tracking because he may be questionable as well

    Tell us who! Damn It. Is he referring to May? Macdonald? Preuss? AVB?

    This lack of information is really frustrating me!

    Pert strongly hinted May will miss round 1, on SEN yesterday.

    The other 1 or 2 might be Petty, AVB, and Hannan.

    Preuss is an obvious out but I don't think he would've been selected in a 32 degree day anyway.

    Hopefully T Mac is right to go for round 1. He IS our most important player in the side as demonstrated by us going 0-7 in his absence, and the sole reason we beat Carlton last year. It's critical they manage him correctly through to round 1.

    Kicked the winning point against GC too.

    He played terribly last year and was clearly hampered by injury, but was still so important.

    Hannan is set to join the main group on Monday. Perhaps he might be one of the "guys"?

    • 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.
