Just wandering if people still want this kid? Hasnt been much talk about him in last few days. Personally i would love to get this guy and would be happy to use pick 28 on him. This sorts out a hole for Neitz when he retires and the ruck situation is better, but be better if we got Moran.

Use pick 4 - Palmer (midfield)

Use pick 14 (if TJ goes) - Rance (FB)

Use pick 28 - Murphy

I personally think thats ok in a year where after pick 25 looks ordinary

    How did we get pick 28?

    Agree though I would have a go at Murphy and Moran. The pick we get for CJ could be used to get Moran and Murphy for our pick 21 or what we get for Miller if he goes.

    Sorry pick 21 i meant.

    Although i would be sad to lose pick 21, there arnt many forwards which have already shown a lot of development. Its less risky than drafting a kid who has not played at AFL level yet. This would give us pick 4, 14 (if TJ leaves), 53 and 69 yes?.

    4 - Palmer

    14 - Rance

    21 - Moran

    These players would have to agree to nominate and realise they could be picked up earlier, and they would also have to accept normal draftee wages (60,000 a year I think on a two year deal).

    murphy would be good but is he worth 21? i would not give any higher for him.

    yeah you are possibly correct. Pick 21 is very high and could be valuable. I cant see any more trades happening to melbourne now after Tj which is fine by me

    • 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.
