2018 - The Force Awakens

2018. Anticipation builds after the disappointment at the end of 2017.

After 2 years of inaction in the trade period Melbourne get serious.

Jake Lever is the main target and arrives from Adelaide along with pick 35 and Adelaide's 2018 3rd rounder for Pick 10 and 2018 first and fourrth round picks. Harley Balic arrives from Freo for pick 31. Melbourne is shaping as a destination club.

Jack Trengove is delisted after never properly recovering from a serious foot injury. Liam Hulett, Ben Kennedy Jake Spencer and Mitch White are also delisted.
Colin Garland and Heritier Lumumba retire. 

The National draft sees Charlie Spargo (29), Bailey Fritsch (31), Harrison Petty (37) and Oskar Baker (48) added to the list

Joel Smith is elevated from the rookie list.

No one is selected in the rookie draft.

The list is now starting to gain momentum. Charlie Spargo, Bailey Fritsch and Harrison Petty are added to the list of men still standing along with Jack, T.Mac, the skipper, Salem, Christian Petracca, Angus Brayshaw, Alex Neal-Bullen, Clayton Oliver, Jake Melksham and Joel Smith.

After an up and down season Melbourne miss the top 4 by 1 game with a far superior percentage to 4th placed Hawthorn. Melbourne eliminates both Geelong and Hawthorn in the first 2 weeks of the finals in front of massive crowds at the G. They head to Perth with an air of anticipation. From the first bounce of the preliminary final, Melbourne is well and truly outclassed by the eventual premiers West Coast.
The stage is set for 2019.

Enjoy.

    Enjoyable year 2018. Hell of a pre season, seeing Fritta and Petty arriving at the club was exciting too.

    When the Pies beat Richmond in the 2018 prelim, did anyone go to sleep that night with a fleeting thought that 2018 could be our year?

    Richmond were absolutely the team to beat in that 2017-2020 era and if felt as though the door was kicked wide open for Pies, WC or us to win the flag.

    As others have mentioned, the 2018 finals at the G were amazing nights, particularly the Geelong game. Hopefully in 2024 we can finally once again win a final at the G as it's humiliating to be on the receiving end.

    MCG was rocking for those 2 finals. Great nights. Probably the best nights I've had as a Dees supporter.

    I made my way to Optus for the prelim. Traumatising experience but 2021 has banished those memories. Optus is now hallowed turf!

    • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

      Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

    • PREGAME: St. Kilda

      With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

    • REPORT: Richmond

      Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.

    • POSTGAME: Richmond

      The Dees ran another clinic for the second week in a row as they easily accounted for the Tigers in the lightning interrupted shortened match at Mars Stadium in Ballarat.

    • VOTES: Richmond

      Kozzy Pickett was the man of the match last week and has a vote lead over backup ruck Max Heath who didn't play this week and 5 votes over former Saint Jack Steele. Who gets the votes in this weeks shortened match win over the Tigers? Your votes please. 6, 5, 4, 3, 2 & 1.

    • GAMEDAY: Richmond

      It's Game Day and the 2026 AFL Premiership season is almost upon us as the Demons take to the field for their final practice match before the first ball is kicked in anger in 16 days time. What are you expecting to see from the Dees today as they take on the Tigers at Mars Stadium in Ballarat?
