Same as last year really, where we went in with Hunter and first gamers McVee & Laurie

Very similar but both McVee and Laurie had  been in our system for a year at least like Howes.  But Caleb straight from the draft to be selected first game,  that’s as good as any number one pick in the last few years.  Except I don’t think we are a struggling club.  So that’s even more impressive.   I hope he lives up to it.  
someone on here likened him to Tulip,

that’s hard to believe.

    I likened him to Robbie and Ive seen nothing so far to change my mind - will he ever be as good - we can only hope because Robbie was possibly the best footballer I’ve ever seen in red and blue. He does move like the great man but I agree they are massive boots to fill 

    He deserves his spot given his training form and pre season form and add the fact that Hunter is unavailable 

    We have lacked pace imo - he has it 

    Good luck to him let’s all hope he plays a good game and helps us to a great first up victory

    'This is the side of Oliver we don’t see, but Oliver never turns down the chance to give back outside club hours. Like most AFL players, Oliver doesn’t feel the need to publicise these moments.'

    I reckon certain Collingwood player might learn something from Clarry.

    I didn’t expect Fox’s promotion to get me pumped for this game but here we are.

    I also quietly love that they’ve got Billings in there. Back him in and let’s go.

    I was at training at Gosches when Clarry returned to team training.He was signing autographs for kids and posing for photos.He is a people person. He loves the fans.

    Interesting that a suspended Kozzy is in the pic. Maybe they plan to play him under a pseudonym?

    Nice that Longmire announced their debut in front of a huge Melbourne emblem. So that's where the MFC media people have been. 😉

    AFL.com.au’s predicted Sydney backline;

    Lloyd.    McCartin.    Rampe

    Florent.  Blakey.   Jordon

    They are tiny. And that is weird.

    Never been a fan of using a tall as a sub but on a small ground I’d be throwing everything in the height bucket against these smurfs.

     

    edit. Looking a bit more closely at their predicted side, it appears the work experience kid might’ve been thrown this one.

    Got the same syndrome ... new Sony TV, new Flip6 speakers that just might be able to achieve a Ch7 commentary upgrade, hot dogs, rolls, Dijon mustard and Rosella dead horse, black pepper. Raring to go!

    Do you mean they can convert Brian Taylor into Anthony Hudson?  That's impressive.

    I wonder how the Grundy v Max will go.

    Interesting to see if there's any bad blood.

    I wish James Jordan all the best but of course hope he has a quiet night.

    As a sub maybe. If one of the talls goes down we'd be pretty small in the forward half/ruck.

    I still prefer a more versatile sub but in a tight game on a small ground someone that can mark or at least provide strong marking contests late in a game could be useful.

    • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

      Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

    • CASEY: Williamstown

      The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

      Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

      The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
