The same people lamenting Weid leaving lamented Oscar McDonald leaving.

Might have missed them, but not seen one comment 'lamenting' the loss of Weideman.

Reckon this is just you taking another pot shot. Classy.

Nearly shed a tear when I read this, it's like one of your sons leaving home.

Sam Weideman another young man with plenty of class who acknowledged our club in glowing terms, helps explain why he was loved so much by his teammates, he sounds as disappointed that he didn’t quite make it as we are. Good luck Sam.!!

All the best Sam sorry it didn't quite work out like we all wanted. Good luck you deserve it and thanks for your efforts.


I was a big Jackson fan, but he departed disgracefully and disrespectfully on many levels, so I feel accordingly towards him now. 

I never liked Weidemans footy besides seeing a little potential (should have tested him in defense though) but the classy way he just departed, like a real man with fine character, leaves nothing but complete respect and best wishes for Sam.

He's been poised to deliver for 7 years now...

I love the guy, I watched him kick a bag and mark everything at Box Hill in his first year - his team mates were being slaughtered at Geelong at the same time - Roo's last year  - but the bottom line is every season after that was 6 years of 'promise'...

Good luck to Sam. always thought he had talent, i think the bombers 2022 game plan would suit him.

They had a game plan?


Wishing him well but boy he needs to get a bit of mongrel in him if he wants to be a decent AFL player.

Loved the guy as well.

Similar mold to John Tilbrook, fantastic club man and great VFL 2nds player but could not bring that level of play into the Demons VFL side. All the best Sam with Essendon, don't take any supplements there and I am sure you will be a great Club man for them. Will always follow your career.

Being a fantastic clubman and a great 2nds player is where the similarities end.

Tilbrook was as tough as nails, bash and crash. Even tried his hand at gridiron

And though he didn't live up to the hype, he played some decent footy for us in his later years, especially 1973, 21 games, 24 goals 6 Brownlow Votes.

Weideman went to Essendon because he knew he'd get a regular game. Bottom 6 finish this year even worse if Stringer and Wright tank out.

The Weed, did you see that?
What a grab!

Bad grammar’s

It's nauseating to hear the "Weid!!!" cry from the Essendon crowd.

Any comment on JVR's last quarter?

I’m very happy for Weideman. He was never going to make it at Melbourne. A chance of scenery was good for him. Wishing him all the best.

Agreed.  May he play brilliantly in losing sides for the duration of his red and black career 

He's always had it - he needs a long run of games to find/produce it. He never was allowed a full season in the 22 to find his game with us. If van Rooyen was the Weid, he would have been subbed and dropped next week. Scott is backing him in and encouraging him to simply go for it.  I always liked him, but in the end the selectors went with other options. 

But I can't stand that he chose the Bombers. I hate it that I like the Weid but hate his club and jumper.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
