2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.

    Not missed a game since his debut in round 1, 2023.

    Resilient, tough, classy.  Smoothest mover since TJ. 

    🙏🫰🙏🫰🙏 his contract is extended VERY soon!

    Potentially the most intriguing playing on our list. He has all the tricks and will only get better with another pre-season.

    I still remember watching his debut live at the 'G at the start of 2023 when he'd seemingly come from nowhere after he had a great pre-season. Straight away you could see that he was a smooth operator. How about the baulk on Libba at 1:17? 👇👇

    This year, you could see that his teammates were looking to get the ball in his hands more often when we were exiting 50. He took some great scalps as a small defender as well.

    He looked a little bit lost when we moved him into the midfield but I think the potential of him playing there is huge.

    Hmm not sure he looked ‘at home’ in the midfield

     May be the best half back who is a genuine defender in the competition tho - always gets the tougher jobs and is rarely beaten

    Judd McVee has really shone in our back 6, I also hope we stick with Judd down back we were a bit desperate for mids this year that will change in ‘25 and why cut our opponents a break when we have one of the best and smartest half backs in the league.

    Highly rate him as a small defender but wasn’t impressed with his midfield trial -  8 possessions as a midfielder against Collingwood.

    48 straight games from his debut is pretty damn impressive.

    • 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.
