For some reason I like a forward line of JVR, Schache or Petty, Fritter, Kossie and support cast with Max and Trac visiting on occasion.

    I'm noticing a few posters are starting to exclude Ben Brown from our projected 2023 forward line.

    Would love BBB and TMac in there but knees and feet seem important parts when playing footy.

    Jeesus.. go and have a look at Schwarz's highlights reel before he was Ox...if he's that good then they should sack the whole FD right ..NOW for not playing him already. 

    It must be the silly season?

    Of course you may be correct,which will be exciting...

    Better than that Ruski ballet dancer guy?

    I agree

    his highlight reel isn’t getting me high

    hopefully I can’t get a better buzz in 23

    The difference with young players at MFC is there is no need to rush.these days

    Earn your spot and try and keep it, Bowey being the perfect example of trying to keep it

    JVR will have all the incumbent medium and tall forwards looking over their shoulder, a good thing for the team

    Nice Instagram post of a fit Tommy Mc running around his local track at Edenhope

    On other young players my tip is keep an eye on both Taj W, who improved week to week and Blake Howes, was close before injury.

    If everyone stays fit, we finally have cover all across the ground

    Have high hopes for Woey. Look forward to how his pre season goes.

    Tmac is the glue which makes our forward line tick between the talls and smalls.

    With the recent loss of Jackson returning to his home state of WA, I was worried JVR may follow suit in the coming years.

    If BBB plays like he did in the final third of the season then he should never play again in the red and blue.

    Moved like the mechano man in cement and had Chris Dawes concrete hands.

    Frankly unless they learn to kick it to BBB on a lead all he can do is " his best" with what he's got.

    On a lead and with his inspector gadget arms he's almost a weapon. Certainly that's  a change up from the dumb predictable bomb to the forward pocket boundary line. 

    Making him play against his strengths is like Neeld trying  to make Liam Jurrah into Byron Pickett.

    Hopefully both he and TMac have another season in them and a flag to go with it

    10-12 games played and goal a game average would be a satisfactory output for his for season in the seniors. anything more would be a bonus.

    Even if he can just get one out he's a chance to mark with his reach instead of flying against 2 or 3 opponents.

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

    • GAMEDAY: Essendon

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.
