Pretty sure Hardwick has shot down the Flanders rumours. Don't think Jacko is coming. And Browne is apparently close to re-signing at GWS.

Bit of a nothing article, really

Jackson was never coming

more success or less without May and having Hogan?

Am I misremembering or did Hogan ask to be traded to his home state?

I remember desperately wanting to keep him and being resigned to the fact there was little we could do: he didn't want to be at the club.

Hogan departs Melbourne

“While we are disappointed to lose the high-quality player that Jesse is, we respect this decision and his request for a trade,” Mahoney said.

“Jesse has been through some significant personal trauma in the past 18 months, and he has close ties to family members, including his mother, brother and sister, back in Western Australia.

“As a club, we understand that being closer to family in Perth is Jesse’s priority, and we appreciate the positive impact this can have on his wellbeing.”

Since debuting against Gold Coast in round 1, 2015, the forward has played 71 matches, including 20 this past season.


alex dodson who i know personally and who we were linked to in the draft last year would be handy.... 18 years old and destroying these two

with rowan marshall and tdk coming next year im not sure he gets much of a shot at the saints, really don't know how he fell to 53 we could have easily got him

With Jamaras issues off field, I think any club who has him will have consistent issues.

Stringer #2???

Well I mentioned Liam McMahon not long ago but looking like he’ll get a real shot at the bombers.

Has anyone watched Harry Lemmey from Carlton play in the vfl?

Hopefully JT and TL have.

Alright, so.. is there anything new or any targets after all the ones thrown up are now mostly taken?

Who are most likely looking at, and who are we shipping out?

Sam Flanders name gets mentioned. He’s one player that would fit perfectly in our best 18. He might get squeezed by the Suns as they have more young midfielder talent getting drafted this year. Not beyond reach in my view. Maybe an end of 2026 likely push on him.

He’s definitely one I’d be getting in the ear of

Wasted on the half forward flank while Rioli and Noble take his half back minutes and the Suns prioritise their young mids

I think Dimma has shut this one down.


It was just reported on Channel 7 news by McGuire that Wade Derksen, GWS swing man, looks likely to be playing in Victoria next season and Melbourne is the front runner.

What position does he play for us?

Thinking he is a forward / ruck

Definitely not a ruck, but can play as key position on both ends

If he comes to us he could be handy, but it needs to be borne in mind that he will be 24 and has been at the Giants for over 3 years and hasn’t yet played a senior game.

GWS “reserves” leading goalkicker.


At the moment, unfortunately we are a bloody hard sell for any new recruit to choose us.

We’re not gonna anyone, no one will come to club coached by Goodwin, reckon we’ll lose a few but wont get any. I curse my old man for forcing me to bleed red & blue, the most frustrating team in the world. I’ve supported them all my 60 years, one flag we couldn’t go to, never had our own home, we’re the only team that always loses games they should win. Carlton have been a rabble all year but they still beat the pathetic Melbourne football club!!

Maybe a few umpires?

  • 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.
