The question is, how many of the other 43 would get a game at Melbourne based on our exposed form in September?

Bontempelli went ok for a half. Could rotate off the bench as an impact player.

Yes I could squeeze Isaac and a battler called Dusty into our bench rotation!


On first glance Travis Boak should be in the top 20

Tex Walker shouldn’t even still be on AFL list.

 

Nic Nat overrated as always, 13th best? He averaged 68% TOG and 1.6 marks per game. Completely overrated.

Three of the best five players in the comp, that’s about right and that certainly helps you win games of footy. Oliver or Gawn could easily have been number one. 

Remember the days when we hoped Jones would creep into this?

now Fritsch is #16

what a world

It’s a cult; you’ll never convince any of them.

 

 


So in Robbo’s view, the sixth best player won the Brownlow and there are three Demons in front of him (plus one ineligible).

the problem with the brownlow (apart from it being voted by umpires) is that only 3 players can get votes per game

‘Cult’ is a very good descriptor in this instance, completely agree.

I’d say he’s right. The Brownlow is often won by a midfielder who had a good year in a side where teammates don’t take too many away from them. Wines is a great player, but does he swing games the way the other 5 can? Ditto Sam Walsh.

As a player. Absolutely. Was easily one of the best forwards this year

Was good without being great this year, definitely not top 50

Fritsch is too high. He wasn’t better than the other 6 Dees this year. More like 40th, maybe the 5-6th best goal kicking forward 

Lever was better than May this year.

Gawn not top 5 either. Somewhere between 10-20. He’s had better seasons. Paced himself this year.

    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.
