Been a while since I have posted but has anyone heard anything about the Demons being linked to Ash Johnson from Collingwood? Shane McAdam connection allegedly has Johnson interested in joining the Demons. I assumed he was contracted but can't find details.

Unless he is delisted he won't be leaving and the fact Kreuger has been let go indicates he is needed.

Also fyi, Shane and Ash are brothers

Contract for next year, so wasn't traded.

Wouldn't touch him with a 10 foot pole. He's got poor attitude and work ethic. He battled away in the VFL for most of the year despite the Pies crying out for forward targets due to injuries to Mihocek and McStay. 

Struggled in VFL, kicking 10+ goals less than our own youngster Jefferson. 

Probably best to close this thread and burn it with fire.

 

He’s contracted for next year and wasn’t traded so he’d have to be delisted with a year to run to get to Melbourne.

He looked like the worst player in the league in 2024. Made Shane look good by comparison. Lazy, uninterested, devoid of confidence.

If he didn’t have a contract I don’t think he’d be on an afl list in 2025. 


We have been humiliated by Collingwood for about 2 years now.

They laugh at us!

No way should we take another lazy footballer!

His brother Shane McAdam is lazy enough!

I am a No. Huge disappointment this year at the Pies.  Played VFL and lack of work ethic. Has the talent.  Not the dedication. He’s contracted so unless he’s delisted, move on.

Seems similar to his brother re preparing and training or are you just [censored]..d off with the family unfairly? 

If this is true then why are they not keeping him instead of Krueger who also seems injured all the time. 

BTW is Krueger a cousin of Shane and Ash by any chance?

Reckon a chance on Krueger would not be stupid move for sssp or get him to on train with us in pre season,

I never referred to his family. Not sure why you've mentioned them?

I gave my opinion on a player struggling for form at VFL level who is worse performed than options we already have in the VFL. The common knock on him is poor work ethic. His VFL coach Fraser even called out his poor work ethic in a post game interview late in the year. 

Unless Johnson has a great season next year, he won't be on an AFL list going forward. He's being kept by the Pies because he's still got a contract, where as Kreuger is out of contract. Kreuger is an injury prone battler and will likely head home to SA to play in the SAFL if he can get on the park.

Nah his family is from Darwin/Alice Springs (Kreuger)


Just another on a long list of AFL players who showed a glimpse of immense talent when playing Melbourne...and at no other time in what inevitably turned out to be a short career.

Started his career with a bang but then got bored with footy and is now running the clock down on his contract. Will be back in Port Hedland or wherever after next season.

Markov helps win them a flag last year then delisted/rookied 

Nice way to reward him

Rookie spots need a major overhaul if Markov gets a rookie spot

  • REPORT: Geelong

    I was disappointed to hear Goody say at his post match presser after the team’s 39 point defeat against Geelong that "we're getting high quality entry, just poor execution" because Melbourne’s problems extend far beyond that after its 0 - 4 start to the 2025 football season. There are clearly problems with poor execution, some of which were evident well before the current season and were in play when the Demons met the Cats in early May last year and beat them in a near top-of-the-table clash that saw both sides sitting comfortably in the top four after round eight. Since that game, the Demons’ performances have been positively Third World with only five wins in 19 games with a no longer majestic midfield and a dysfunctional forward line that has become too easy for opposing coaches to counter. This is an area of their game that is currently being played out as if they were all completely panic-stricken.

  • PREGAME: Essendon

    Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

  • NON-MFC: Round 04

    Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

  • POSTGAME: Geelong

    The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.
