Hopefully these kids wont need to be rushed through next year

Hopefully they do get a full season in the VFL to develop though, something that would have significantly impacted all Victorian clubs.

    Judd McVee sounds like a made-up name.

    Looking at the timeline, there's a good chance he was named for Chris Judd.

    And a very Demon premiership style welcome to the three lads who already "seem" bigger than photos previous and profiles also. 

    Boy with Blake Howes and AMV from NT I'll be very surprised if at least 3 don't get a go on the AFL stage at some stage.

    Probably  JVR Blake Howes and Taj are favoured but no guarantees.

    Cant wait to see the five's development plus Dunstan's progress and evolution plus his amalgamation into a top class midfield.

    Reminds me of an old sketch about a deranged Carlton fan who changed his name by deed poll to Juddy Fevola... middle name EddieBetts.

    If Taj debuts with a fresh set of tips I'll melt   

    Confession time, I had his dad's footy card stuck inside my locker door one year in high school 🤣 He had "the look" of that time down pat.

    Only a faint but distinctively Ennio Morricone soundtrack can be heard…

    The characteristic  opening scene (as favoured by Sergio Leone) of the vast desiccated landscape comes to life…

    with the isolated, distant figure of a lone rider riding relentlessly upon his steed…

    as out of a suddenly awakened dream the  cinema lights take effect illuminating the popcorn strewn theatre aisles…

    The credits roll…

    A new star has emerged from out west …

    In the role as “El Gringo” for another Simon Goodwin desperado linguine production is…

    …Judd McVee

    Is it just me or do they look younger than usual this year

    It’s not just you. The older we get, the younger they look. 😁

    At first it's like, wow, that player's the same age as me.

    Then it's, oh cool, I remember when their Dad played.

    Then, wait, that player who's RETIRING is my age???

    Then, that player could be my child.

    Probably you stop thinking about it at some point!

    Or it could be something much more light-hearted senor like these three 'livewire' recruits.

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.

    • GAMEDAY: West Coast

      It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?

    • FEATURE: 1925

      A hundred years ago today, on 2 May 1925, Melbourne kicked off the new season with a 47 point victory over St Kilda to take top place on the VFL ladder after the opening round of the new season.  Top place was a relatively unknown position for the team then known as the “Fuchsias.” They had finished last in 1923 and rose by only one place in the following year although the final home and away round heralded a promise of things to come when they surprised the eventual premiers Essendon. That victory set the stage for more improvement and it came rapidly. In this series, I will tell the story of how the 1925 season unfolded for the Melbourne Football Club and how it made the VFL finals for the first time in a decade on the way to the ultimate triumph a year later.
