    I feel like Max Smart on Get Smart when he gets told he’s a field agent, shouting under the cone of silence:

    “I’M SO HAPPY”

    Genuinely thought this would drag out all next year. Pumped! Gives us some certainty to get other deals done.

    Woke up this morning and have just found out that my gas heater is stuffed and I am freezing cold , but strangely it feels like it is a most amazing day.

    Reckon if we now snag Gus and Dogga in the not too distant future I could even handle the power going off.

    Go DEES!

    That’s coz it IS a most amazing day!

    Clarrie quietly inking that [censored] amidst the brouhaha over Gussy and Dogga. ❤️💙

    wodja, bummer about your gas heater. Just remember, two words: LOTSA LAYERS. 🙂

    Just as in this frame hopefully Dogga is following Clarry on a contract extension. 

    Well done Clarry and MFC. Ensures we will be in a window for 5/8 years at least especially if we keep Dogga for a few years. 

    Congtats Clarry you are probably going to be the greatest Demon ever by 2030 ( or Trac) or someone else like Dogga if he stays long enough. 

    Maybe Could trigger off Angus and Dogga deals sooner than expected 

    Go Dees 

    our bad weeks are gone and sunshine ahead in 2022.

    Being caught up with Gus and LJ I forgot about our No. 1 priority!

    this is the best news possible. 

    gotta love this club, our best player of a generation and we don’t have to worry for one second about losing him or Trac to free agency. 

    could not love this bloke anymore.

    Bang! Bang bang bang!

    [censored] ecstatic to read this news. Clarry is the most important signing of the lot. I didn’t expect this to happen until later next year, so to have it done now and avoid all the distraction is great. But even better, he’s signed long term. He’s a demon forever. My favorite player and will likely finish his career as the best to ever pull on the red and blue. Absolute legend. Onya Clarry! Go Dees!

    Started writing but this sums it up. Never thought anyone could top Robbie in my eyes and heart but I believe he's our best ever already.

    Geatest day of the year......so far 😈

    Th best thing about this is it was so random. I mean no one was talking about Oliver, yes I know he wasn't out of contract this season but everyone is so focused on Angus and LJ and Melbourne just went boom this morning and dropped this. 

    There is also no fan fare about it, no presser just an email. Now I bet today journos are rushing down to melbourne to speak to him. 

    I reckon whoever sent out the email was pretty happy to be pressing send. 

    It also says that Oliver has no issue what so ever playing under Goodwin and the stuff that was bought up about him in the off season. 

    Well done Clayton. 

    Puts a lot of what people, who claim to be “insiders”, say into perspective.  Lots of people in the know in the media and on socials completely missed the lifetime contract about to be signed by the league’s best midfielder.

    It's announcements like this that tell me that our club, right now, is being well run. 

    Hasn't always been the case, and it's extremely reassuring.

    From a supporters point of view its always great to see our best players commit to the club long term just like we have - it shows a clear aligned interest in wanting the club to be successful long term.

    These guys should all know they have a fairly unique opportunity to enjoy a sustained period of success if they stick to the script and keep working hard. Its the sum of the parts that makes a great team - lets hope all of the parts think the same way

    • AFLW REPORT: Gold Coast

      The forecast said wind. The ladder said mismatch. The scoreboard said obliteration. Melbourne didn’t just beat Gold Coast — they dismantled them: 13.15 (93) to 0.6 (6). An 87-point obliteration, the Suns held goalless, and the Demons delivering their second-highest winning margin and third-highest score in AFLW history.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #28 Will Verrall

      It was a tough ask for him to break through as a 199cm ruckman in the shadow of an all-time great in that position who is also the club captain. He had some good days at Casey but was unable to progress and was delisted at the end of the season.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #29 Tom Campbell

      The 33-year-old Campbell has yet to play AFL football for Melbourne, but his Casey form has been strong and he has been retained as a ready-made ruck depth option who is widely regarded as someone who is excellent for the culture of the club.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #30 Harry Sharp 

      The Demons acquired an interesting player in Sharp, who narrowly missed securing a spot in the Lions’ premiership team last year. The 22-year-old medium forward played in the opening round this season and ended up with 18 senior games, although he was substituted in or out in for ten of those matches. He demonstrated glimpses of form, but ultimately ended the year on the margins of the team.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #31 Bayley Fritsch

      Worked his way back after a slow start and a further slump in form going into the midseason but became a solid contributor for the club in the latter half of 2025. Closing in on 300 goals for the club.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Gold Coast

      On Friday, the Demons return to our Casey Fields fortress where they have a 77% win rate. The scent of September is in the air and the struggling Suns are on the horizon. The Cranbourne weather forecast? Ominous, like the match itself: a strong chance of carnage. Let’s be honest, last week’s first half against the West Coast was a training drill but we dropped our guard in the final quarter. While this match is a mismatch on paper — second versus seventeenth — football is won in the wind, the contests, and the moments.
