Marked well. Kicking off. He’s a very good no 2. Don’t think he has the height for a kpf1 role

He is 197cm and a super athlete. Doggies just don’t know how to play him to use his strength.

They seemed to be playing to his strengths today. He saw plenty of it. Would have had a bag if he kicked straight.

The comparisons to Buddy is bordering insane. 

Well his contested marking is better than Franklins but his set shots let him down. Regardless of what anyone thinks if he leaves the kennel he’s poised to sign the biggest contract in the history of the game.

 

Sure he would have had a bag if he kicks straight… but how often does he? 
I mean I would have had a bag too if I was 25 years younger, A foot taller and any good at kicking goals.

He kicked a bag against us, was it last year or '22, including the sealer

He'd be a good addition to our list if we could land him.

JVR and JUH together... mmmmm...

Solid fwd line for the next 10 years.

 

Watched him carefully today.  He's a bloody beauty.

Anytime a KF can win a fair amount of 1 v 1s when he is seemingly out of the contest or not in the favoured position (and occasional 1 v 2s) you know you have yourself a very very good player and a potential match winner.

We would not be doing our job well enough if we aren't deep in the mix for JUH as we speak!

Really enjoyed watching him today - great talent

I’m wondering how high and long Landers’ would be prepared to go?

5 years, $1.25 million a year?

10 years, $1 million+ a year?

 

What figures would be the top end you’d be happy to go?

Most landers wouldn’t know what the salary cap is without googling so we can just ignore that.

 

Aside from me of course…

The club needs to come out and clearly state it's intentions to the media on JUH before it's too late and we miss our chance to be in a news article. 

Great to have you back Skuit

My guess is JUH will command 6 years at roughly $1.2M

Could even be offered 10 years but without kickers I doubt he would take it.

The incoming Tasmanian team will completely skew the market in so many ways

It will be okay for the Dogs. Like when Hogan left us they'll get two first rounders and with luck they'll pick up a key back which they desperately need

Look with your eyes.

Think with your brain.

Do the results match the hype?

If Bevo is there, don't sign, mate. Just don't sign...

 

I would think a 2 year deal would be the smart move .

He will then have just as many options after 2 years and can force his way out after 1 if things go even further south at the dogs

  • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

    The media has performed a complete reversal in its coverage of the Melbourne Football Club over the past month and a half. Having endured intense criticism from all quarters in the press, which continually identified new avenues for scrutiny of every aspect, both on and off the field, and prematurely speculated about the departures of coaches, players, officials, and various employees from a club that lost its first five matches and appeared out of finals contention, the narrative has suddenly shifted to one of unbridled optimism.  The Demons have won five of their last six matches, positioning themselves just one game (and a considerable amount of percentage) outside the top eight at the halfway mark of the season. They still trail the primary contenders and remain far from assured of a finals berth.

  • REPORT: Sydney

    A few weeks ago, I visited a fellow Melbourne Football Club supporter in hospital, and our conversation inevitably shifted from his health diagnosis to the well-being of our football team. Like him, Melbourne had faced challenges in recent months, but an intervention - in his case, surgery, and in the team's case, a change in game style - had brought about much improvement.  The team's professionals had altered its game style from a pedestrian and slow-moving approach, which yielded an average of merely 60 points for five winless games, to a faster and more direct style. This shift led to three consecutive wins and a strong competitive effort in the fourth game, albeit with a tired finish against Hawthorn, a strong premiership contender.  As we discussed our team's recent health improvement, I shared my observations on the changes within the team, including the refreshed style, the introduction of new young talent, such as rising stars Caleb Windsor, Harvey Langford, and Xavier Lindsay, and the rebranding of Kozzy Pickett from a small forward to a midfield machine who can still get among the goals. I also highlighted the dominance of captain Max Gawn in the ruck and the resurgence in form in a big way of midfield superstars Christian Petracca and Clayton Oliver.

  • POSTGAME: Sydney

    The Demons controlled the contest from the outset, though inaccurate kicking kept the Swans in the game until half time. But after the break, Melbourne put on the jets and blew Sydney away and the demolition job was complete.

  • CASEY: Northern Bullants

    The Casey Demons travelled to a windy Cramer Street, Preston yesterday and blew the Northern Bullants off the ground for three quarters before shutting up shop in the final term, coasting to a much-needed 71-point victory after leading by almost 15 goals at one stage. It was a pleasing performance that revived the Demons’ prospects for the 2025 season but, at the same time, very little can be taken from the game because of the weak opposition. These days, the Bullants are little more than road kill. The once proud club, situated behind the Preston Market in a now culturally diverse area, is currently facing significant financial and on-field challenges, having failed to secure a win to date in 2025.
