Brock McLean

Madness
in Melbourne Demons

Featured Replies

He played well but I'd like to see him play out the year with this form or something close to it.

I'd rather Neita retain the captaincy and Chook get it in 2009.

    Nice article on the Melbourne site:

    McLean narrows focus but widens appeal

    He labelled his last 3 weeks as 'crap'... how can you not love him? :lol:

    Also spoke very well about lack of discipline.

    “If you are angry, just walk away or take it out on a strong tackle or something like that.

    It can be frustrating but you have to think of the team first.

    It can be the difference between a good game or a bad game or a close win or close loss.”

    Great minds think alike ;)

    I loved that article, better than the usual, we need to lift and be more accountable etc etc

    Robbo will be captain next week so there is no point even discussing it. :)

    No, hence he won't be captain next week.

    he has not played well enough,

    his form needs to be consistant.....

    he doesnt need added pressure on his shoulder just yet

    Never seemed to bother Bruce or Green...

    And while I agree he doesn't need the extra pressure, it's a moot point. We're not out there to make finals. The more learning experiences we can get into him the better. And it's Brock, if in doubt, put him under pressure. With the exception of the last 2 weeks, he's thrived under pressure...

    Is it not his 200th game next week? I'm sur ei heard that, and if it is he will captain the side.

    As much as i'm fan of Brock Mclean, i'm kinda over talking about him.

    He WILL be a great playa.

    He WILL be our next captain.(barring #$^$%&$&%^*)

    He WILL be our franchise playa.

    So could ppl stop feeding the small feeble minds who continually take pot shots at Brock.

    "It's not Brock's fault u were mistreated as a child."

    Sorry but what don't you understand?!

    Yes, it's Robbo's 200th but he isn't in the leadership group (and rightfully so), and therefore cannot captain the side.

    It hasn't been done in the past for players such as Jeff White in their milestone games and will therefore not be done for Robbo.

    Case closed!

    Now back on to Brock... :wub:

    • 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.
