Think Howe played like 5 games up forward then Collingwood got some injuries and Buckley was like "oh well". He's never seen the forwardline since lol.

Roos always knew he wasn't a forward.

That's not true Collingwood turned him into a defender, he never played down back for Melbourne. Just ask the pies supporters.

I don't believe we have a young player ready to step up so there is no development issue but more likely a list issue.

It's going to be interesting to see how we handle White.

Do we see him as a potential ruck or a KP player???

Either way if he makes it he's still a few years off.

There is obviously a development issue at play with several players who are not getting played in their positions or getting a decent run at it - that does not change depending on what level of skill the player has – and the football department needs to improve.

That's a different issue. I'm talking specifically about the ruck position.

 

Cal Twomey on Gettable stating that Adelaide have previously held interest in Judd, and now that the NWM chase is effectively over, he's posed the question as to whether Adelaide visit this again and 'up the interest'.

He's also framed this against the signs being that JM will stay with the Dees and that has been the indication all season.

Culley, AMW, Mentha all announced as extending until the end of 2026. Damn boi.

Happy with AMW re-signing.

I know it was only a match simulation against North but he looked terrific that day and he was absolutely penned in for the GWS round 1 game in the absence of McVee.

(Mind you JVR played his best game of the year in that match simulation so I'm sort of arguing against myself...)

Not sure we should be picking an AFLW team to please the boyfriends.

He's dating Lily Johnson. Not sure it actually makes any difference

It doesn’t make any difference.

A grand total of zero.

Why would you post this in Judd’s contract thread? It has nothing to do with Judd’s contract. Maybe you accidentally posted it here instead of in an AFLW thread? Or maybe this is a failed attempt at humour?

Lily is a football player in her own right.

Ah, thanks! I was definitely confused. Makes sense. Surely he takes into account her being here but that’s about all.

I’m guessing he’s not happy with conditions and wants a huge pay increase or role to remain, or has resigned to the fact he’s leaving and will. Based off he’s most recent form, not overly upset if he goes, which is a shame because he was really quite smooth for a while there.

Great to see Goldy back

Unsure, but they certainly have had more success.

It will if Johnson finds herself out of the team and Daisey offers her a contract.

Only once they moved on,Bedford was a sub for half his games ar the Dee's

jj is a premiership player with the mfc, made a grand final with bloods, no finals in 2025

bedford has gone from someone who has been a great tagger to someone who is arguably on the fringes of gw$ best side

Bedford plays every week for the Giants, he isn’t a fringe player.

Awesome to have Goldy back in the side!

But the poster’s comment “concerning” had nothing to do with the W team selections and everything to do with Lily Johnson being dropped which is “concerning” purely because she’s Judd’s partner. 🙄

i was aware Lily is Judd's girlfriend

my response was to allay the concerns regarding team selection. Goldy and Gall make us stronger (no disrespect to Lily or Pisano)

Yeah, you and I are on the same page, we just don’t know it 😅

  • PREVIEW: Fremantle

    The dominant storyline coming out of Round One for Saturday Night’s clash at Optus Stadium centres on the influence of the big men. The spotlight naturally falls on two elite ruckmen who, five years ago, shared the stage in Melbourne’s memorable premiership triumph.

  • NON-MFC: Round 02

    The compromised AFL fixture will get another test this week with the first lot of teams getting a bye after only two matches. Despite this Round 2 starts off with two cracking games as the Hawks host the Swans at the G on Thursday Night and then on Friday Night the Crows host the Bulldogs at Adelaide Oval. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • THE STATS FILES: St. Kilda

    As part of the effort to trim the runtime of the regular podcast, we’ve been looking at which segments could be reshaped without losing what makes them valuable. One segment that naturally came into focus was Binman’s Stats Files. Not because it isn’t important; quite the opposite. It’s become such a substantial and much-loved part of the show that it deserves a little room to breathe.

  • PREGAME: Fremantle

    After a stunning victory over the Saints in the first round of the Season the Demons head over to Perth to take on the Dockers who choked in their first match against the Cats. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • REPORT: St. Kilda

    One of the big stories of the AFL off-season was the spending spree of Melbourne’s Round 1 opponent, St Kilda. They splashed out heavily, first to retain Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera - the hero of last year’s epic come-from-behind miracle victory -turning him into a $2 million man. They then effectively took out an expensive overdraft to recruit a string of expensive players from other clubs. It was a risky investment strategy and, although it’s still early days, it certainly failed to pay off in Sunday’s season opener, with much of the glitter turning to fool’s gold.

  • POSTGAME: St. Kilda

    Never in doubt!!! In Steven King’s first game at the helm of the Melbourne Football Club, the Dees outlasted Saints in a wild, momentum-swinging thriller at the MCG, running out 13-point winners.
