We'll just have to agree to disagree Dr. I actually rate Phillips and Thomas did finish last in the Grand Final sprint. Surely that closes the argument in my favour!

yeah good luck with Phillips not coming last in the grand final sprint.

Because if we don't attract the cream of the crop annually, it means my life is worthless...

not if ben hudson runs again?

We aren't interested in Josh Thomas, I can assure you all of that.

Josh Thomas biggest goal kicking season haul at Collingwood - 38

Ben Kennedy biggest goal kicking season haul at Collingwood - 9

Pretty sure Thomas is an upgrade on Kennedy and has kicked a bag of 5 goals once and a bag of 4 twice.

Exactly right - so many uneducated opinions here, Thomas is EXACTLY what we need!!! Especially with Brown coming in. Solid finisher, averagesan effective i50 tackle a game, good efficiency, smart & was still didn't picked player in a stacked smalls group at pies. Role changed this year, was played more as a def fwd hence goals tally being lower but still picked every wk when fit in a strong side. 

He and Phillips would be good gets, assuming my dream of Treloar or Menegola for the wing remains just that.

Thomas immediately makes us better and would be in at R1. Could easily kick 30+ goals in a team that has Weid/Brown combo

 

If he was 24 I'd be all for it. But at 29 and being in decline and a role player only I'd have to pass. I'd rather see us continue to get games into the likes of Pickett, Spargo, Chandler and Bedford instead as well as move Harmes into our forward set up.

  • 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.
