Just been told Taj Woewodin will debut this week. Unbelievable moment for the club and his family. Our first father son since Billy Stretch IIRC? And our first son of a Melbourne Brownlow medallist to play for the club.

wow! thats big news if true. Congrats to him and his proud dad Shane. Tbh though I haven't really taken him in that much. At a glance he doesn't seem to overly quick or have any one wood I can easily see. Anyone want to bring me more fully up to date on what he may bring? Big tank? hard at the ball?

That would be a bit exciting!

Taj

Please

Peroxide your hair for the debut


What's the general consensus for how many more losses can the club have before "Is Goodwin the Right Guy" is back at number one on the thread list?

This is fantastic news!

To hear the Woewodin name streaming down the field will be heart warming.

I think his dad didn’t have any particular skills, but recognised that and trained and worked to make the absolute best of what he had. It sounds like his son is the same.

Some folk are champing at the bit to resurrect that horrid thread after only one loss. Or even before the final siren when a loss is inevitable.

Go for it! I won’t be around to see such rubbish. I’ll bid y’all a fond farewell if Andy lets it see the light of day. I’ll leave you to revel in nastiness. 👍🏽

Surely that one is retired. 

It would have to come up again in the form of something like: "Has Goodwin lost the touch?" Or "Is it time to change?"

It won’t be nasty from me. I like Goodwin and think his Premiership year was incredible. Doesn’t mean we can’t discuss his role if we keep losing to top teams. How would you feel if we finished 6th and lost our elimination final this year? Do you think his coaching would be worthy of discussion?

Thing is, it WILL be nasty from some.

”worthy of discussion “??? Yes. 
Worthy of straight up vitriolic insults? That’d be a huge bunch of nope, right there.

OUT: Oliver

IN: Sparrow

Harmes as sub

That's my guess

Oliver can't play on one leg Heis hood even great but needs to be able to run !!. 
Who  is going to replace him word is that Taj Woe will debut.

Sorry Hunter is missing also 

Aplogies Roost it but we need 2 at least newbies vs Freo. 

He gave som clues in his presser today apparently at training.

The real question is; when did I get this old? 😭

With Hunter and Olie out  we should definitely throw a cat among the pigeons and bring in some new blood. Keep Freo guessing and get some young hungry (no flag) players in the mix.  We need the 2021 hunger and desperation back and we'll do fine.

    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.
