Judd mcvee is a 200 gamer right? Right?? 
 

He is an absolute star and seeing that [censored] stringer getting absolutely towelled up was just so amazing to see. 

Need a contract extension pronto!

    My only negative is that they subbed the wrong player off. How Bowey kept playing when AMW was actually playing well is beyond. 

    Bowey is a huge worry for me moving forward alongside Petty and Sparrow.

    Judd McVee out marking Lance Whitnall was the highlight for me on too of many others of course.  Kid is a serious talent.

    Shame about the last 10 minutes, it ruined what was otherwise a really strong four quarter performance.

    Hate seeing JVR spend so much time in the ruck but not sure what else we can do.

    Sparrow really needs time at Casey, I'm not sure what he brings to the side at the moment. Seems to be spending time in the forward half but only had 2 tackles and can't hit the scoreboard?

    OK I'm in london & just saw the scores. Oh my god I'm so happy.

    How did we win this?

    How did we go in the ruck?

    Maybe we need to trust goody and his plans.

    Go dees. What a weekend,  pies lose and so do the bummers

    That was bizarre umpiring in the last 5 minutes.

    For example the bombers throwing the ball all night and they pluck one out of nowhere against rivers.

     

    Yep.. horrible call. It’s decisions like that that really make me think the umpires have been given a direction to help the opposing team make a comeback.

    Caddy was the youngest player tonight.

    And apparently we had the next 7 youngest.

    The bombers are still in rebuild mode.

    The Kids are alright

    Credit to McKay.

    They would have been list without him.

    A thought experiment.

    Imagine taking draper and Merrett out of the bombers team tonight (the equivalent of gawn and tracc).

     

    I thought that was the best game I’ve seen McKay play. He really set them up well behind the ball.

    Can't believe Windsor is only two years older than me... So much class at just 19. All the youngsters looked amazing today!

    Though he had the luxury of not playing on JVR, and instead he got a very underwhelming Petty.

    Agree, and that likely translates on field as well.

    • 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.
