2025 Player Reviews: #46 Jai Culley

Demonland
in Melbourne Demons

Featured Replies

The tall former Eagle was added to Melbourne's list at the final moment after Andy Moniz-Wakefield suffered his season-ending ACL injury. Following a solid season at VFL level, he earned a senior debut late in the year in the midfield against his old side. His form was impressive, and he will remain with the Demons, with the prospect of lots more football at the elite level.

    His game against Frankston showed that he's got weapons to be a pretty handy tall forward.

    Culley has a bit to work on regarding his defensive workrate and positioning, but nothing that can't be fixed with a full pre season with the team.

    He clearly has some traits that are very exciting and which give him an excellent chance of becoming a long term AFL player, particularly his size and marking.

    Jai clearly has talent and shows strength and versatility and marks well above his height.

    I am looking forward to him as a midfielder, wing or HF.

    Work hard Jai - you can play a huge role in us getting where we want.

    A real positive to end the season with. I can see him being a Blake Acres type wingman but perhaps more damaging forward. Aerially very strong and nice kick.

    One of the positives gleaned from 2025.

    Can play, with raw talent that will only benefit from a solid preseason.

    Best of all, he looks like he really wants to be out there, and if we have a team full of that sort of enthusiasm, we will improve very quickly.

    He’s been a passionate Demon all his life. I’m not saying that makes him a better player but geez it doesn’t hurt. He doesn’t have to cultivate a red and blue heart, he’s always had one ❤️💙

    Excellent signs in the handful of games he played, think he's got a bright future.

    Just a wild idea, why could Jai be a key forward for us, loves a big grab as we have already seen.

    Bigger than almost all our other supposed key forwards.

    Just as a reference, Logan Morris for Brisbane is 191cm, Jai is 194cm.

    JVR, Jai, Fritter, Jefferson/Kentfield, Kozzie, Chandler, Trac or another small and thats a forward line you could get some goals out of.

    • REPORT: Essendon

      Melbourne’s much vaunted finishing power evaporated at Adelaide Oval on Saturday afternoon, exposed for the third time in four years by its Essendon Gather Round hoodoo.

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      Not long ago, the narrative surrounding Melbourne was steeped in pessimism. There was some concern among the pundits (and even some fans) that the club would arrive at the AFL’s Gather Round still winless, vulnerable to a familiar adversary in the Essendon Football Club, and facing significant scrutiny from an ever-critical media on a national stage. Things have changed.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      Steven King astutely identified the issues that had plagued the Melbourne Football Club over the past two and a half seasons when he auditioned for the newly created coaching role. The side that had claimed the 2021 premiership had become stodgy, slow-paced, and hesitant to take the initiative.
