What a weird career for Jake, but a very good career all things considered.

Never quite found his spot at the Bombers. Went through the drugs saga then came to us, and was in much the same position until Goodwin put him forward of the ball, which was a masterstroke.

In 2018 he was incredible. 32 goals and was one of the best i50 ball users in the league

Then he regressed? Couldn't make it into the 2021 flag winning side.

2022 he looked done.

2023 had a late season resurgence, including that forever memorable goal against Brisbane, then unfortunately got injured. With the way he was playing, the injury took away a goal or two a game and may have cost us a shot at the flag.

Will hit 250 games in 2025 if he plays every week.

 

Is he the last of the suspended Bomber drug scandal players still playing?

With Dyson Heppell's recent retirement, I believe that is the case.

 

EXCELLENT outcome.

A classy, experienced, intelligent player - something we need a lot of right now, especially up forward.

Was happy with his return this year, I imagine he will be vital next year. 

Onya, Melk! 


Good news

He had a ripper season in 23 before I reckon his injury cost a flag ( along with Gus going down)

I must say prior to last year he had a couple or more fairly inconsistent seasons.

Even after coming back this year he came back on fire but then went quiet. I guess flattening out at the end of this year he had a good excuse in terms of fitness and conditioning 

But last year and a couple of games this one, he's proven he still has what it takes. For his size he has great strength and takes some great marks. Hard at the contest and not afraid of being bruised. Adds a little bit of " controlled" agro up forward.

Article doesn’t say if he will remain on the rookie list or not. Given we seem to be getting tight for rookie spots I assume he’s back in the main list. Anybody know for sure?

He's always been one of my favourite players.  He seems to run like crazy and he's tough. 

My favourite trait is his kicking.  Hopefully he can teach his teammates.  

He's normally clean and accurate, but sometimes his kicks are the sweetest peaches, beautiful to watch.

Melksham’s field kicking is amongst the best in the league. Not so his set goal kicking unless he takes shots from ridiculous angles. 

By any meaningful measure, Billings and Hunter are far better players. I wonder why the difference in the love?

Are you serious? not being argumentative just asking

Melksham:

You have the best kicking skills on both feet in the team. 

You are a great mark for your size

You are an experienced leader

Act like it, stay focused and involved in games and you can dominate 


I admire his body work in out-positioning his opponents. Makes it look easy. Something I wish Fritta was able to do, or more precisely learns to do.

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.

That was then and if you knew anything about footy he was lazy and didn’t play with  any  spark or enthusiasm. Thsts why he wasn’t anywhere near our Premiership team.!

Thats why so Many then ( not now) echoed the Goodwin angle.

Nothing to apologize for.

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • 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

    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.
