    Yes - as discussed in the pick 79/83 thread. Really hoping we pick him...

    I’d love to get some more goals out of our small forwards not named Kozzie - so I reckon Jack would be a great get

    Hopefully he’s available at our last pick 🙏

    Interesting that he’s been linked along with the Berry. Seems a small forward is on our wish list. 
    Starting  to look like we will go with two mids, a tall and a small forward with our pick in draft and rookies

    Pardon a question I should know the answer to.

    But did Werribee  win their GF

    Anyway nice kick from the 50m line went through 1/2 way up the goal posts. So nice kick!

    Looks like he is a bit older than 18 so has been made to work,

    Not a bad thing at all.

    Looking unlikely now according to the man himself given we picked two mids with picks 6 and 11.

    Here's hoping we still pick him

    I'm guessing we're going a tall?

    Seems that way - but I'd rather take Jack Henderson. 

    Can take Riak Andrew as a rookie and the possibility of White next year F/S.

    VFL Showreel, GF: Jack Henderson highlights

    He's got a bit of zip and x factor around stoppage. Little bit Papley-esque, dare I say it.

    He reminds me of that kid in junior footy who probably studied every single way that an oval shaped ball can bounce. Whether it comes to gathering it or kicking bouncers.

    With Lindsay probably starting half back and Langford likely starting out as a medium forward/rotational mid I still think the list balance would be well served with a running forward/mid.

    Especially if we get Riak through to the Cat B list.

    Like the sound of him.

    Would be very handy to have a small forward who is also capable of going down back to play a lock down role on opposition smalls.

    Jack Henderson still a chance in the rookie draft tomorrow for the Demons?

    I don't think we have any spots. We retained all six 2024 rookies without drafting any of them to the primary list, so we're still full.

    Disappointing - thought he could have come in and had a Shaun Mannagh type impact

    very disappointed - I'm sure Johnson will be great but shattered for Jack

    I thought we had one spot after elevating Melksham to the senior list?

    We have 4 rookies (Verrall, Sestan, Hore, Brown) plus AMW (cat B) and then Kentfield (MSD Rookie). Max is 6 cat A and then 2 cat b...

    Ricky Mentha might count as a cat b/nga?

    Having spoken to a Werribee coach about Hendo missing, he said it was between Johnson and Hendo.

    Said we can be VERY excited about Johnson, who comes into a full time environment with plenty of room for improvement and stops bending over/working all day as a tradie. Said he is an absolute brute who can play forward in the AFL almost straight away.

    This is brilliant news and means we could rookie Hendo.

    FWIW, it means Yze misses and I don't think that's necessarily a bad thing. F/S can be picked up beyond 18yo...

    I think we are done, R&BF.

    Thanks for the insight from the Bees coach

    Didn't see the point of re-signing Hore as a rookie. Petty and Turner can play back if the need arises, and we have ample key forwards on our list to replace them. Hore is 29 and had an injury interrupted season. Can't see any upside in the player we previously delisted.

    From what I saw of the Werribee finals, Henderson looks like a real talent, whilst Johnson didn't look AFL level.

    Our list management continues to be puzzling.

    • Thank You Simon Goodwin

      As Demon fans, we’ve ridden a rollercoaster of emotions over the decades; the heartbreaks, the near misses, the wooden spoons, and the endless waiting. But through it all, we clung to hope. And then came Simon Goodwin. Before he ever wore red and blue, he was a champion in his own right. A five-time All-Australian, two-time Best and Fairest, and two-time premiership hero and Captain with Adelaide, Simon Goodwin was always destined to lead. When he transitioned from the field to the coach's box, first as an assistant at Essendon, he began shaping a new legacy.

    • PREVIEW: Western Bulldogs

      Long ago and far away, the Melbourne Football Club replaced its coach in difficult circumstances after the team suffered a devastating loss. In the aftermath, I penned the following words: “Then came the politics, the intrigue, the axing, the sound of the football world laughing at a club, the circling of the media vultures, the reinvention of history, the anger, the irony, the pathos, the hurt on the face of the president, the dignified departure of the coach, and the determination of the newly appointed caretaker.” Today, we’re back in the same place although one difference here is that the coach who was terminated this time is Simon Goodwin, the man who four years ago

    • REPORT: West Coast

      The Charles Dickens novel, A Tale of Two Cities, opens with, “It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, …”  This phrase highlights many of the significant challenges that humanity encounters in life, ranging from experiencing remarkable highs to living in times of despair. This is a concept that should resonate with all supporters of the Melbourne Football Club this morning as they reflect on its comprehensive 83-point victory over the struggling West Coast Eagles at Marvel Stadium. The outcome proved beyond doubt that they are the worst of clubs and that we are the best of the worst.

      With only 3 games to go, all against Top 8 fancies, the Demons face a daunting task as they return to the MCG when they play the Western Bulldogs. Who comes in and who goes out?

      The Demons return to town fresh off a thumping win over the back-to-back wooden spooners, the West Coast Eagles, played in front of a sparse crowd at Marvel Stadium, the same venue that hosted last week's heartbreaking loss.
