    In 2021 in close games (margin 12 or fewer points) we were 4-2 and a draw. When the margin was 7-12 it was 3-1.

    Since then for games 1-6 margin we're 6-12 and for games with a margin 7-12 we're 5-7 (and all games under 13 points we're 11-19)

    This year in the 2 goal or fewer points margin games we're 2-5. If I'm not mistaken we lost our last 3 of these games in '24 so that's 2-8 since midJune last year! I am so f****** sick of the close losses!

    (The new format is infuriating! Somehow I clicked on the wrong link....again)

    I do hope Melk and TMac get offered another year. On the list I think there are 6 delistings from this year and only 3 draft picks. 3 off the list is the minimum and maybe we can get 3, 24-28 y.o. good players to join for next to nothing.

    Thanks R&BF

    iirc a 'R' FA is in the top 10% player payments. Not sure all those 'R' are so should they choose to go we can't match the offer. Of course rules may have changed.

    btw, is Fritsch 31yo?

    He's turning 29 in December.
    Contract expires end of next season, so will be 30 in December 2026. Think that is what is meant to say.

    Commentators for the Casey v Box Hill Hawks game made 2 references to Campbell having been given a 1 year extension........shheesh! surely we can find someone younger who won't play a senior game.

    I think offering a mature 'in case of emergency' ruck a cheap 1 year extension is relatively low on the list of issues at the Dees at the moment to be honest.

    From what I can find RFA is top 25% of payments, although I think I had a couple wrong here and they should have been UFA Thanks :)

    I have added players who are delisted Free agents as their own category, I think I have them all, but if anyone notices anyone incorrectly labeled, just let me know

    Also yeah I had Fritsch one year too old.

    can we keep this thread as an absolute bible and only update it on official MFC reports and not heresay and speculation? has been no word from MFC regarding a contract extension, the commentators hearing a rumour could just be coz they read demonland pre game to find out some words to sprout

    Probably shows the club have now lost faith in Verrall of they're wanting to keep Campbell for another year.

    Agree DZ, I’m bullish on AWM and especially Culley.

    Haven’t seen much of Mentha as of yet but fingers crossed. Small nippy forward is a definite need.

    A very good start to the Off Season IMO.

    • PODCAST: 2026 Season Preview

      The boys previewed the 2026 Season sharing their early impressions of the new coach, the new players, observations from preseason training, and what they've made of the new game style. They also look ahead to the season with their predictions, the players they expect to rise, their expectations for the team, and what they see as a realistic pass mark for Melbourne in 2026.

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      When the Demons blew their 46-point lead at Marvel Stadium in Round 20 last year, the fallout was enormous. Like an event straight out of a Shakespearean tragedy, Melbourne’s final-quarter collapse left fans reeling and the club grappling with the aftermath.

    • PREGAME: St. Kilda

      With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

    • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

      Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

    • REPORT: Richmond

      Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.
