Interested in other's thoughts, I wanted him in the side a lot over the season but for reasons best known to the match committee was overlooked time and again.

He is a very smart footballer, knows where to run, can take a contested mark, disposes well  and is not afraid to put his body in. He ticks a lot of boxes! Could have kicked a couple more goals, but I thought his last 2 games were Excellent!

One the basis that we lack players with "Smarts" I reckon he deserves at least a one year deal with triggers for beyond.

I would be disappointed but not surprised given its the MFC and some decision making re Contracts have been in the past, "Lacking" that he may not be offered but,,,

I hope he gets another gig at MFC

I thought he was good on Saturday but seemed to be playing further up the ground

 

A medium level journeyman.

It's a pity we need him but without TMac in form I see little alternative.

My bigger worry is Melksham and Hannan

Also need to get LJ and Rivers under 3 year contracts asap

Saw someone liken him to Pedo, think a player like him is needed given question marks over Smith, Tmac, Petty etc


I'd happily keep. Played a much better role then McDonald has dished put the past 6 months.

Keep! Good, honest footballer, who works bloody hard.

Agree. Sign up for 2021.  
He’s a good honest natural footballer. Showed enough to get another year. His hunger and smart footy was very much needed in our forward line.  A true Pedersen type.  

 

I have noticed that the last 2 games he has been chasing kicks and taking marks and linking up the ground. also found in the back half to help out against GWS where he helped win the game in the last quarter.

Put in a good one against his old club and is a   shue in for a 1 year contract at the least IMO.    He reminds me a lot of Cam Pederson that was a real honest goer and did well for us.


Yep. I really like him. Has a bit of that Cam Pedersenesque spirit to him, will play beyond the expectations of his talent. Also seems to know that a footy bounces in an odd fashion, and gets himself to the right spots.

Whether or not he’s around next year may depend on how we go at the trade period. If we manage to land a second key forward then that shoves him down the pecking order pretty quickly. I’d be giving him another year though, handy depth. 

Definitely another year. Should have played many more games in the place of Tom McD. I like a player with courage and smarts. Keep.

Extend his second year as a rookie.

He was terrible in the first game of the year but his last 2 games were ok .plays with enthusiasm and has a bit of zip .But if we are to become successful we need replace 30 yr old journeyman like Mitch with a bit of quality .We dont bat low enough at the moment so we should be concentrating on players who  might not  be A graders but are clearly of AFL standard and Mitch doesnt fit this profile ..


Put him up back and he’d be every bit as good as Lever.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

  • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

    The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: Collingwood

    Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.
