Always good to lock away first round draftees. He's still got more size to put on, but all reports from Casey are he's developing nicely and is seriously capable in the air. Existing prospect for the future. Good onya Jeffo!

    Apparently the lads call him the "magician", must have something to do with his skills perhaps? Any info on that?

    I vaguely remember it being about how he manages to grab marks whilst in awkward positions in the air...or something to that effect

    I have 2 great jokes here, but neither of them are appropriate.

    Because he loves to steal our Western Australian talls and over pay for them

    Burst out of the blocks the first few weeks before some really grinding games, but I think he’s settled in the last month or so with some byes freshening the legs.

    His forward pressure on the weekend was a couple of levels above anything I’ve seen from him before that.

    If he can develop that aspect of his game as well as finding more of the ball he’ll be a lot closer to playing with the big boys.

    He was really good on the weekend. I know we played Coburg and they are terrible, but he looked promising both in the air and at ground level.

    He needs to put on more muscle so he doesn't get push off the ball at AFL level, but I reckon he has all the markings of a good modern day KPF. Athletic, able to take contested marks as well as compete for the ground ball.

    Wouldnt even hesitate to sign on to an AFL club for another 3 years without having played a senior game

    We did it with JVR and aren't you glad we did! 

    I trust that our coaches, who watch him play each week and train multiple times a week, know exactly what they are doing.

    El Jefe!

    The way he moves reminds me a lot of Wattsy, very relaxed and easy the way he glides across the ground. Hopefully with a strong club culture and development program he can become the forward we all hoped Wattsy would be

    BB he mentioned that he has already put on 6kg so that is a good start and he is listed at 195cm 6’4” same as Shwarter.

    Well done Mathhew Jefferson and MFC sounds like the young bloke is starting to build nicely, another pre-season and another 6kg on that frame and watch out we’ll have JvR and Jefferson Ford running around with Fritta, Kozzie and Chandler then look out.!!!

    If he told you the real reason it might surprise you. EXCELLENT NEWS! Lovely young man with a postive outlook and a quick learner. Another 5 Kilos and strong pre season and look out, we will have our very own David Nietz CLONE!

      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.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem   

      Salem proved to be a valuable contributor as a reliable and solid one-on-one medium-sized defender in what was undoubtedly his most impressive season since the premiership year. He remains a highly capable rebounding option for the Demons as he approaches his 200th game at the club.
