Is there an echo in here?

Happy to hear this. Need all the leadership we can get.

I almost beat Peter Ryan in my defence


Couldn't agree more re the leadership situation (same goes for Tmac), but also, while I know Milkshake has his detractors (on this forum at least) I am rapt he stays on for his footy smarts, skills and forward line marshalling. We are always better with him in the side, and miss him greatly when he isn't. And good on him for being rewarded for staying the course - he could have easily run up the white flag with that knee. A class act...

Are all those that kept saying he was only getting a game because he is mate of Goodwins' or that he has photo's of Goodwin in previous years going to support this, the hypocrites will of course.

Absolutely fair and with several outgoing players it looks like depositing are done which is one very small but good side effect of Nibbler, Gus horrors! Then Brown retiring & Tommo moving on with KFW & JS delisted were prob basically done with Hore waiting til end of trade period to hear his fate. Smith obviously still on list which seems a mute point to me now but if allowed to play next year I guess it makes sense but that while mess id rather just see forget the whole thing tbh. Hunter id expected to hear about by now but think surely that’s on cards.
 

Continuity of list is a VERY good thing.. 

 

To be honest, our depth is so poor, we are in no position to be pensioning off the likes of Melksham and T Mac. It's not a slight on these two, but we have noone coming through the ranks to challenge them for a place in the team.

It was a no brainer that Melksham and T Mac would be given another year.

Very happy to have Jake Melksham commit to another year he and TMac provide strength of character experience and leadership to our group.


Great signing. Really improved our forward line when he came back into the side with his field kicking, goal assists, and on field leadership. I know it's highly unlikely, but gee I'd love to see Melk win a flag.

I think his detractors have shrunk over the journey.

Fully behind Melk getting an extension, our fwd line functions better when he’s up there and just a great person to have around a team that feels like is starting to skew younger.


Happy with this. Do we know if he stays on as a rookie or back on the main list?

Agree with the “one more year”.  Mainly because our erosion of depth and Melksham can help guide others.  I think he stays on a lower dollar contract based more on games played.  Definitely the forward line looked more potent with him in the team and his kicking for goal is elite (unlike most others).  

IMO a good signing.   
Experience.
Leadership.  
Poise.  
Skills. 
And he has really only had a couple of months of match day battering this year that should leave him quite a bit fresher than many of his team mates and opponents.

Keep bringing the boys to the yard

I would be looking at him playing this year with a view to a Coaching post if it can be done in a later time.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • 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.
