2025 Player Reviews: #29 Tom Campbell

in Melbourne Demons

The 33-year-old Campbell has yet to play AFL football for Melbourne, but his Casey form has been strong and he has been retained as a ready-made ruck depth option who is widely regarded as someone who is excellent for the culture of the club.

    For the benefit of people new to the club and for the removal of any doubt, Tom Campbell is the ruckman on the left in the photograph.

    Fortunately not needed in ‘25 but he played some dominant games for Casey and after all he is our Max Gawn insurance.

    Exactly right. He is doing his job which it's to be ready if called upon. Milton said: "they also serve who only stand and wait". Apparently Max refuses to be "managed" so Campbell doesn't get a go. Not his fault.

    I took a shine to Campbell when he arrived at the club (no idea why, since I'm based in Sydney and no longer use social media outside of Demonland 😅). Glad he's here to provide positive leadership and role model a team first attitude / selflessness!

    He sure is. Tom is Ben Brown version 2.0 and it’s no surprise they’re very close friends.

    TC’s social consciousness and his unprejudiced views are being exposed to our players and the young players especially will benefit greatly from this.

    IMHO

    A bit D & M quoting one of the classic English poets in a footy site. Better the D&M than the usual B&D though, maybe.

    But nonetheless true. Majak was another who was there but not required, and also a great training foil for Max. Brundy not so.

    • GAMEDAY: Richmond

      It's Game Day on Friday night. ANZAC Eve. The big stage at the ‘G. The Demons return to the spotlight for one of our most significant nights on the football calendar, taking on the Tigers in a clash that always carries extra weight given the gravity of occasion of the commemoration of the ANZAC Spirit. Under the lights, in front of a packed house, this is where moments are made. Can the Dees rise to the occasion and deliver on the big stage, or will Richmond spoil the night? All the build-up, discussion, and in-game reactions here. Go Dees.

    • NON-MFC: Round 7

      Round 7 is here, with the ANZAC commemoration games taking centre stage. Who are you tipping this week, and which results would be most favourable for the Demons?

    • PREVIEW: Richmond

      Who would have imagined, when the season kicked off early last month, that Melbourne would emerge from the opening six weeks with wins over both Queensland powerhouses? At the time, Gold Coast and Brisbane were the competition’s early pace-setters, the flavours of the month, and the prospect of the Demons toppling both within the course of a fortnight seemed remote. Yet here they are, banking those scalps alongside home victories over two traditional Victorian rivals and building a quietly impressive resume.

      The Dees hit the big Friday night stage for the first and only time this season when they take on the Tigers under lights on ANZAC Eve at the G. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • REPORT: Brisbane

      Before Sunday, the last time the Brisbane Lions had walked onto the turf of the Melbourne Cricket Ground, they celebrated the pinnacle of the sport - an AFL premiership secured in emphatic fashion for the second consecutive year.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      From the outset, the Casey Demons lacked any spring in their steps. They were out-hustled and out-bustled and finally outplayed by the Brisbane Lions by 38 points on their home turf in perfect conditions at Casey Fields.
