    Great highlights!

    Fritta's goal was amazing against Geelong! It is definitely my number 1# goal of the year.

    Fritsch should've been one of the three finalists for AFL GOTY.

    Something in here, too, for the Chin-pickers to ponder?

    Fritta's against Geelong is my pick, as it was also at such a consequential time of the game.  When he kicked that it pretty much sealed the game for us.

    Love alot of the other goals too.

    Overall, watching these clips reminded me we were really not that far off flag contention this season bar a run of rubbish season ending injuries to several of our guns.  Only just lost to Brisbane (after they'd turned the corner) and Port away and even the GWS loss doesn't look that bad given how they faired this season.

    I still remember the morons on reddit saying it was a regulation "easy" dribble goal. Sure many of us grew up practicing that inward curbing dribble and would kick it half the time. but the push off, the time of the game, the fatigue and pressure, but also the rarity of it: I don't think I see that many dribble goals like that each year, despite the morons saying it's easy. If it was, everyone would do it. Anyway, it's a decent goal of the week type of goal. 

    That being said, id be more impressed if the Cat player gathered it, ran 10 metres and Fritta chased and nailed him in a HTB tackle and then kicked it from the boundary. I'd take that over it every day of the week. :laugh:

    • 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.
