Kolt’s mother is 100% the best recruit of the off season 

Don't forget we were the only club to visit the Kolt's family on their farm to meet them before the draft. Imagine the talk over the dinner table that night

 

For all our track & Casey watchers, how has he actually been going?

I saw him play live in each of our practise matches, but he looked more like he was finding he feet in those games rather than banging down the door for selection.

Any insight appreciated.

Thought he had a great game against the Bulldogs in Casey's last game after our Port game.


Really excited to see him play. Could the club not have told him yesterday to give his family more time to get over to Melbourne?

Ok from my perspective here is my take

1 He is like a sheepdog, rounds everything up. 

2 Is lively AND involved

3 Capable of the freakish, could be a possesion, kick, mark tackle

4 Very good skill set

5 NEVER say die spirit

6 Comparison?? Hnmm combo Sparrow, and Billings with a touch of Nibbler

Excited for the young bloke. Reckon his WAFL experience will hold him in good stead. He'll lay a few tackles and get on the end of some chains. Maybe even a goal or two.

He reminds me of Garry Hocking on appearance. Great if he plays like him!

Whiskers?

I like how Goodwin's being bold with selections this year in picking Windsor, Howe and now Tholstrup.

Standing still ain’t an option - full kudos to the entire club from recruiters,  fitness staff, specialist and line coaches as well as Goody of course for the way our club develops talent these days.  We have had some fantastic newbies since 2021 - Bowey, Chandler, JVR, McVee, Howes, Windsor etc (humble apologies for any I have missed) .   Just hoping that the naturally slower developing talls Jefferson and Adams and Verral are all allowed time to make their mark.

Exciting times for Dees supporters.


NOICE, some good news out of the AFL today/this week
 

#excited to see this young man show his talent. 
 

Me thinks he is going to be a beauty 

Silver lining to Kozzy's suspension, very excited for this young man's debut! Good luck, Kolt.

Dees should play Living Colour's - Kolt (Cult) of Personality running onto the MCG for him! 😉

Wahooo we have all been anticipating the launch of the Kolt, so glad it is at the G tomorrow night so we can witness him Debut. Congratulations young man enjoy your first game with the Dees. Go the Esperance Kolt, how happy was Jack Viney.!!

Having seen Viney roast a few younger players (no longer at the club) I take Viney’s endorsement as absolutely glowing praise. If Viney thinks he’s up for it I have no doubt.

The Kolt to kick 3!

Lock it in!

Yep, got in at $21 last night.

Knock em dead Dirk

Is everyone calling him the Kolt as they too afraid to spell his surname incorrectly?

Tholstrup - sounds like part of a saddle on a horse. keeping with equine theme.

  • The Clayton Oliver Thread

    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.
