Didn’t know what it meant in February; still don’t know today. I’m sure I’ll never know.

Unrelated (but possibly related): great news about Judd 🥳

It was in regards to your comment about Kozzie's situation turning out fine - it may but that is yet to be proven considering the commentary around him wanting to move west.

    Sign him up!

    I think Peter Ryan is pretty useful at getting info out of us. Plus whatever junk the players agent throws at him.

    interesting that mcvee is only looking at a short-term deal

    Thought the same but I don't mind it as he's backing himself to take a step up into bigger dollars on his contract after this one. Unfortunately my guess is that it won't be with us.

    McVee was very close to signing for 2 years in October/November. He opted to wait in an attempt to extract contract value in the early rounds. The club have upped their offer despite his injury which is an awesome show of faith. Was offered 4 years but has settled for 2 which was always his preference.

    he could be backing himself but also with Tasmania supposedly coming into the league in 2028 it makes sense for some players to renew up until 2027 because;

    1. They can use the new team as leverage

    2. They could potentially go to the new team and get a signing on bonus (which is a floated possibility).

    Is it time to start worry about him not signing a contract yet? Anybody got any intel? @Dannyz ?

    Given WC low ladder position we could lose him for very little at the end of the season if he doesn’t sign up.

    After the mega contracts we've given out, I'd hope this isn't a 'we'll see what's left for you Judd' situation.

    Sounds like a Melbourne possibility

    I’m hoping we’re looking at who can we use to get the picks we need to attract some top end talent. Of course I want McVee to stay but if he’s keen to explore going home let’s use that to our advantage in attracting a ready to go replacement like Bergman.

    I get what you’re but think we would lose out massively if Judd went to WC. Should they wish they can play hardball and pick him up in the PSD.

    He’s probably not rated as highly as he should be by people outside the club either.

    Bergman has his pick of clubs in Vic and Cal has reported he’s been offered a 7/8 contract by port.

    The net cost of changing Judd for Bergman would be way too much imo both in terms of draft capital and contract terms.

    If he wants to go and doesn’t sign a contract then there’s not a lot we can do. But given our current position we really can’t afford to lose out on trades.

    or we could package him and jvr for one of the highest rated players in the comp this year who wants to come home, solves our key forward issue aswell. also solves the issue of them two leaving in the future

    Was told he agreed to a new deal about a month ago with some finer details to be ironed out.

    I expected an announcement by now. As far as I know, nothing has changed. Judd is happy.

    don’t get me wrong judd is great and i’d love for him to stay but business is business and we need a key forward asap he is more then capable of doing that until max pulls the pin. JT will find another judd or two in the coming years so i wouldn’t be too worried also this frees a spot down back we really need to start getting games into the likes of sestan adams amw kento to see if they are up to it

    Sadly I agree with you. I would be surprised if Freo would have an interest.

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.

    • PREVIEW: North Melbourne

      Can you believe it? After a long period of years over which Melbourne has dominated in matches against North Melbourne, the Demons are looking down the barrel at two defeats at the hands of the Kangaroos in the same season. And if that eventuates, it will come hot on the heels of an identical result against the Gold Coast Suns. How have the might fallen? There is a slight difference in that North Melbourne are not yet in the same place as Gold Coast. Like Melbourne, they are currently situated in the lower half of the ladder and though they did achieve a significant upset when the teams met earlier in the season, their subsequent form has been equally unimpressive and inconsistent.

    • REPORT: Adelaide

      The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.
