Judd McVee contract

Red and Blue Flame

We could seek out Kane Farrel from Port, doesn't get as much attention as Bergman and is likely to miss out of a payday there.

Slots in well to replace McVee as a flanker with good skills. We need to target players in 24-28 age bracket and he's hitting his prime at 26.

    From memory, haven't we had interest in him previously? Potentially misspeaking but I seem to recall us being linked to him loosely over the past few years.

    I heard that May is leading the reverse Coleman in goals conceded to key forwards.

    McVee must be leading the reverse Coleman in goals conceded to small forwards. Moir another small who just gone to town on us (apologies to McVee if someone else had the job on him but I'm not enduring that game again to verify)

    Was he on Harvey the week before too?

    McVee would've started on their premier small forward in Curtis.

    Who knows if he spent time on Harvey throughout?

    Harris Andrews and Callum Wilkie are also in the top 5. Meaningless stat, just means they are taking the best forwards every week.

    Who's been playing on Kossie the last month,you do know that Bowie,Rivers and Salem all get goals kicked on them and they aren't the best small forwards

    With 5 weeks to go in the season, it is concerning, that a player is still not signing, after having an Offer from the club since last year and obviously several negotiations since.

    Hopefully we get some good news soon.

    Lever definitely spent a fair bit of time on Harvey. I think McVee was mostly on Curtis.

    I was at that game and everytime I would look down back it was Rivers who was on Curtis.

    We've got a significant hole ever since Michael Hibberd left the club.

    We dont have that big medium defender that can take on the likes of Zurhaar, Dangerfield when up forward.

    McVee has been poor this year unfortunately. How we let Ashton Mior kick 4 goals on the weekend is just appalling.

    Howes form is lifting and may develop into the Hibberd type role. Surprised he wasn't selected against Carlton after being BOG at Casey the week before.

    Do we know for a fact he was on Moir?

    I mean, whoever it was, it shouldn't have happened. Between our medium defenders in Rivers and McVee someone gave him far too much latitude.

    We have a history of making ordinary forwards look like Wayne Carey once a year.

    All my instincts tell me he is gone.

    However the inside line according to some of our own say its all bullocks and he is signed up. I tend to take some comfort in that view given a proven track record.

    With Rivers now playing in the backline with Bowie and Salem,McVee doesn't get the same opportunities,im thinking there's other teams that want a ball carrier, just saying and by the way the team is going with Goody's non magnetic changes,why would you want to stay.Club is going nowhere atm.its a wait and see moment.

    Surprised me as well. And the perfect protype defender suited well on Moir.

    AMW could be our next Hibbo. He has similar traits with speed, aggression and his willingness to defend.

    No. I don't think so. If McVee did play on him it was only at times. I'd say Turner was on him more often than others.

    I really really dislike Carlton's list but I really like Moir.

    That's not to excuse at all. We shouldn't be letting talented six-gamers kick four goals at any time, let alone when we're playing half a VFL team.

    On this occasion ignore your instincts, GS. Judd isn’t going anywhere. Have faith 😁

    Not only is AMW smaller then Hibberd but he is more suited to the dangerous smalls such as Charlie Cameron, Rankine, Nick Watson, Willie Rioli types. He'd match them for speed and aggression.

    Hibberd had a good blend of being able to play on the smalls but could also sit on Dusty Martin, Patrick Dangerfield or a Toby Greene because he had strength and frame to able to match it with those bigger bodied type meduim forwards.

    I see AMW as a Mathew Whelan type lock down defender who would play on the likes of Stephen Milne and Jeff Farmer types.

    Twice this year we've had Cam Zurhaar get hold of us simply because we had no decent match up on him. Kind of player that Hibberd would have easily locked down on.

    The cherry on top for Hibbo was that booming left foot kick that could easily hit a target 60m away

    • 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.

      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.
