Future of MFC

Who do you think are some players currently not in the 22 who will have a future at our magnificent club?

Hello all

Being a Tassie lad (although from Melbourne and moving back in 3 weeks) I may be a bit biased but lets be honest Ken McGregor would be the worst decision we ever made. He is struggling for Adelaide and he would set the development of our younger players back. There is a young lad named Colin Garland playing VFL. He played two games this year and played on Neitz in a pre season game and towelled him up. He needs to be given the chance to play as he is a genuinly good player.

Also here is a player we can go after he is a Geelong rookie names Todd Grima. Being one of Todd's mates I have tried to get him to the dees. He will play in the second Grand Final in two years and was named in the VFL team of the year. Adding to that, Geelong have a magnificant list and i cannot see him getting a senior game but he could be very helpful to us. Especially as our defence is a concern.

Being two tassie boys it may sound strange, but both (if chosen) will play a bigh part in our future as both are tall players who can play the game. Also knowing them both I am sure that they will give their all and be a part of the future of our magnificent club.

I reckon a lot of people going on about our need for a key defender forget what you've raise here.

Yes we have a weakness and need a remedy, but that's why I thought we drafted Frawley and Garland. They just need some time.

i know that we drafted them to play thats why i mentioned Garland. But Todd Grima would be a plus . I played with him at the Northern Bombers in Tasmania and he was a gun. He can play forward and back as he has shown at VFL level and would cost the club next to nothing.

Don't know much about him, but he could have talent and still not get in the Geelong side with their 9 All Australians. He obviously has height and as you say he can play at both ends. Agree he would be cheap to get and should be looked at which I am sure CAC would have done already. We will see which players we target in trade week and PSD draft.

Ken McGregor would be the worst decision we ever made.

I could not agree with you more. I reckon he is an absolute dud.

If he were a backman, why does he play forward most of the time? It's not as if their CHB is anything special.

And when he is forward, he ain't kicking too many goals, and in a forward line that has no stand out!!!

    It’s been a season of grit, growth, and glimpses of brilliance—mixed with a few tough interstate lessons. Now, with finals looming, the Dees head to Kardinia Park for one last tune-up before the real stuff begins.

  • DRAFT: The Next Generation

    It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

  • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

    A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
