Didn't know Bode came back from a disc buldge, just getting over one of them in my lower spine myself, not a pleasant injury.

    look riley is doing a great job i must admit! he is giving young players a go and thats what we all wanted to see. As much as i dont wanna see him coach us id rather see him stay with us and continue developing younger players like he has been so far

    he really hasnt been playing many youngsters in truth.

    you cant call bate, mclean, sylvia, jones playing the youngsters because they are in our best 22 regardless.

    the only players he's developing are frawley and newton really. both who look extremely promising.

    however he still continues to play the likes of pickett, brown, holland, ward (until this week) and keeps the likes of Dunn, CJ, PJ, Garland, Buckley and others rotting away at sandringham when they culd be gaining valuable senior expereience they would never get if we were vying for the top 8.

    this has greatly disappointed me and his selfishness has meant that we havnt prepared our list for next season as well as we could have.

    There is a in correct perception that the last few games are just "play the youth".

    This is also to test out which of the NQR players should go and who should stay.

    Nevertheless some of the selections but not all have been mystifying

    • 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.
