The Academy Awards

Three rounds into the season and Sydney have won all three rising star nominations.

It should be renamed from the Rising Star Award to The Academy Awards.   I look forward to the day the Melbourne Football Club is given free talent without having to give up anything.

    they invested in these kids since they were under 12s and gave up points at the draft table in order to claim them - braeden campbell cost the points equivalent of pick 5 and and errol gulden cost them pick 32...before discounts

    what they should not have been able to do is have any 'discount' applied to them

    same goes for the dogs claiming jamarra ugle-hagan with pick 1 in 2020 and (probably) the filth with nick daicos with pick 1 later this year

    Its a bit rich Scott complaining about 'the cost' of Syd Academy players:  Geelong got umpteen father/sons for very late junk picks:  Ablett, Hawkins, Scarlett etc etc.  without whom they would not have won any of their most recent flags.

    Pies have 4 father/sons players and will get one next year; touted to be #1 in the draft and they have two top NGA players. 

    Bulldgos got JUH and never invested a minute in his development - a quirk of geography gave him to them.  At least Sydney invest time and money into their guys.

    And if other clubs thought highly of Gulden they should have bid for him earlier to force Sydney to pay a higher price. 

    Lots of sour grapes among Vic clubs.

    • DRAFT: The Next Generation

      It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

    • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

      A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
