Okay let's ramble on the positive here..

Just a lazy 26 disposals and 665m gained tonight.

Its the first time i have been this excited about a first year player since Jesse Hogan and Clayton Oliver from their first year in the AFL system.

This kid is a genuine jet and yet he hasnt even played a minute in his actual preferable position as an inside mid.

What's his ceiling?

He is going to be very good. I hope he does work over summer to get some more burst speed and we will have a Tom Green / Clayton Oliver / Bontempelli infusion.

    By the length of the Flemington straight, the best thing to come out of this season.

    A genuine star in the making.

    What he did tonight, and has done before, as a 19 year old without a full pre-season, has been stunning.

    Can't wait for him to launch into 2026.

    Ever since I started seeing clips of him in 2024 I was hoping like hell we’d be able to draft him

    And thank god we did because he’s been everything that was promised and then some

    I know it’s easy to throw big names out there but he just screams Bontempelli, with some of the ‘having time’ qualities of a Pendlebury

    Can’t wait to see what he produces in 2026

    Crazy impressive talent. I'm just as bullish on Lindsay as well. These two are going to be a pleasure to watch for the next 15 years.

    Our backline, even without Lever and May, looks promising too.

    Petty, Disco, Adams, Bowey.

    Our next Brownlow and premiership captain.

    In all seriousness this kid is an absolute freak.

    Imagine questioning this first year player. Enjoy our next big thing Dees Fan. He’s our boy.

    Gotta love Harvey "The Bison" Langford he is going to be a gun for the Demons!

    Maybe still a "smokey" to win the NAB Rising Star Award?

    Nevertheless, will probably finish in the top 5 in our Best & Fairest count. Not bad for a first year player!

    I can't understand why he is paying $51 for the rising star. Every time he dominates a game i check his odds and he keeps drifting.

    We need not have bidded on Levi Ashcroft. This guy has more upside..

    Langford, Clarry and Hogan have clearly had the most accomplished debut seasons for our club in recent years.

    He hit a high watermark last night and I’m sure that the four clubs that overlooked him in the draft may have a bit of buyers remorse. (Although Lalor looked fantastic early days and Smith had an ACL)

    If you want to think about it.... how good is he ??

    He looked like he ought to be out there. ( same can't be said for half that team )

    He ran it out.. hasn't a lot of mates

    He LED by example. 1st year player f f s showing the rest how its done.

    Footy nouse.... in spades..

    Composure... sadly lacking in many.

    He ought to be just soaking in all the learnings of others.. Instead... They ought to look at him.

    Ladies and Gentlemen I present... a Unicorn !!

    May we find more.

    He’s just awesome and so is Lindsay…how good has our drafting been? Seriously would have taken Langford at number 1 if we had it, such a great pickup, was meant to be!

    Don't they have Foxtel in Heaven? If not I'd complain to the manager.

    Brownlow medalist level. Is his ceiling in my opinion and he could be closing in on the level as soon as next year with a good pre season. The fact he’s universally not seen as a runaway rising star is bonkers, the draft pool was crazy good

    I'm the same but I reckon AFL considered it's all sown up already.

    • PODCAST: 2026 Season Preview

      The boys previewed the 2026 Season sharing their early impressions of the new coach, the new players, observations from preseason training, and what they've made of the new game style. They also look ahead to the season with their predictions, the players they expect to rise, their expectations for the team, and what they see as a realistic pass mark for Melbourne in 2026.

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      When the Demons blew their 46-point lead at Marvel Stadium in Round 20 last year, the fallout was enormous. Like an event straight out of a Shakespearean tragedy, Melbourne’s final-quarter collapse left fans reeling and the club grappling with the aftermath.

    • PREGAME: St. Kilda

      With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

    • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

      Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

    • REPORT: Richmond

      Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.

      The Dees ran another clinic for the second week in a row as they easily accounted for the Tigers in the lightning interrupted shortened match at Mars Stadium in Ballarat.
