He'll be ok. A bit like Jordan Lewis was. A solid first year, middling second and probably a mix of Casey and Melbourne games in his third. What he does offer is forward nous. Other than Melksham, that is something we've not had in many a long year.

Today's winner.....

 

I would expect this will be announced today.

 

If the trigger for a third year is that he has to flatten Maynard in a football act sometime during his first two years then I'm onboard.

Any word out of pies B&F last night?

Apparently Mihocek’s departure was written on the big screen at the event but went largely unnoticed due to the crowds’ inability to read.

Brilliant 😂

I heard Fly had to sound it phonetically for them.

Also largely missed by the crowd as they struggled to hear anything over the constant slurping of their dentally-approved 6 course soup degustation

I have a different 'take' on Lewis. I don't think he played particularly well. However the fact that a high profile player (albeit well past his best) wanted to come to MFC sent a message that perhaps we were (or could be) a destination club. Perhaps it assisted in encouraging others to come to the club? (I'm thinking Lever, May, Langdon, Brown.)

I am guessing King will push Petty back, but imo he is too slow to play in defence and is better as a forward. He finished the season well.

My pies tragic friend who absolutely warned about Buckley- "don't take him", is a massive fan of Mihocek and says he's thrived even though playing a lonely hand as a sole big forward. Says he'd be a great get for us.

Lewis was the first green shoots of credibility. Big impact in that regard. And still kept up sniping approach for us. Excellent footy brain must have been a bonus in the locker room too.

Petty will go back. TMac is already on record stating his role is to help develop our young talls in the VFL which I'd say is the reason why he was dropped from our side for Lever this year despite being probably our most in form key backewrly in the season.

Mihocek is a good pickup in that he will work well with Melksham and JVR while.also allowing Petty to play back. Also I think playing Petty forward for the past couple of seasons is good in that it provides us the flexibility to swing him forward depending on the situation.

Will Checkers wipe out our SparGod compo pick?

You'd think so. That might be why the AFL didn't announce the Spargo compensation yesterday.

Spargo for Mihocek is a nice swap.

Has requested a trade, presume there will be a token 4th rounder to not dilute the compo

  • The Clayton Oliver Thread

    Melbourne have held talks with Clayton Oliver and they’ve laid out where he fits in under Steve King’s vision and been frank about expectations. Oliver is still under contract for five years, but the door is open if he wants to explore his options elsewhere.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

    It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

    The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

    The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem   

    Salem proved to be a valuable contributor as a reliable and solid one-on-one medium-sized defender in what was undoubtedly his most impressive season since the premiership year. He remains a highly capable rebounding option for the Demons as he approaches his 200th game at the club.
