    Highs-
    Winning 10 on the trot to start the year even though we appeared to be running purely on Adrenaline.

    Getting to see the boys live in Alice and seeing Kozzie light the place up with 6 goals against Port.

    Our huge wins against Dockers and Lions on their home turf when we were playing for a top 4 spot.

    As mentioned by Spirit the win against Carlton and that goal by Kozzie.

    Lows-

    The three losses in a row and wondering why the wheels had finally fallen off.

    The second Collingwood loss was such a hard fought and bitter loss.

    The two finals defeats and trudging back to the car in the muddy MCG car park knowing that our boys had fought valiantly but in the end had run out of legs and that we had lost that superhuman competitive edge.

    Luke Jackson pulling the pin on our magnificent Football Club and that really hurt more than when Hogan deserted us.

    You hit every nail directly on the head. All I was thinking, you wrote. Signing a few of our big guns was a highlight for me as well.  Bring in 2023.

    Coming to Melbourne to watch the opening game v the Dogs, watching the flag be presented and raised and taking the win.

    Can't believe noone has mentioned the flag raising yet!!

    Yeah, yeah, Naarm. (I’m learning to talk like an Aussie after being out of the country for 25 of the last 30 years.)

    The AFLW season and premiership was the highlight for me in 2022.

    The way they played and the spirit they played with I found really engaging.

    Absolutely spot on.

    To beat Freo and Brisbane away in such comprehensive fashion gives us hope that we can rebound back to our 2021 form in which we were almost unbeatable against the best sides.

    • The Clayton Oliver Thread

      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.
