I hope you're right, its round 20 though, surely if he wanted to stay he would've just signed by now ?

I hope he stays because it will be hard to get full value for him. He’s always been kinda understated and has had a poor year, so a first rounder is way out of the question. I’ve always been a believer that a proven quantity like McVee is much more valuable than a crappy second rounder that will be pushed out ten more spots on the night. That’s the best we could get too.

Not necessarily. I don’t know when it will be announced, all I know for sure is that he’s not leaving the MFC.

I still think he'll stay if the stories are on here are true that he has a local girl and is enjoying his time in Melbourne.

The local girl is Lily Johnson, who wears 33 in Melbourne's AFLW team.

Yes, but she's very happy in and at Melbourne. She was beaming last week at the season launch.

Twomey said his partner is an Adelaide girl, and that those two clubs as well as the two WA ones are interested

Twomey’s wrong 😶

And she now has a sponsor 😉 which makes both her and Judd extra happy.

As it is our 2nd round pick would currently be 24, which looks alright, but will probably blow out to early 30's on draft night.

Lily, a Tasmanian, was on the Pt Adelaide list.

I suspect Twomey read the label and not the list of contents!

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.

Fully agree - Hibbo & AMW are totally different types.

Hibbo was quick enough for the smalls but was physical & aggressive enough for big bodied fwds.

In any case AMW has shown potential but is a long way off being a regular player.

Trust folks! We never announce contract extensions off losses. Our next win is when I would expect news regarding his extension. That is, if we can win another game.

Have never seen us extend a player after a loss, it just is not the "timing".

Only other scenario I can see if he plays a cracker in an honourable loss, maybe they extend as we are running out of time to get that win on the board.

Pick “24” would likely blow out to pick 35 or 36 on draft night.

  • REPORT: St. Kilda

    When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

  • CASEY: Sandringham

    The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
    Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

    The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.

    It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?
