Jayden Hunt
Hunty although dropped early in the season his input wasn't enough and struggled a bit. Injured his ankle with Casey and out for6 weeks plus. Forced himself back in the side and re injured the ankle. However a few weeks out from the finals Melbourne had a settled side. He has had an up and down season however he doesn't lack the skill and application just a bit of confidence. He is an integral part of the make up but if Melbourne keep winning in finals it will be hard for anyone to break in at this stage of the season.

Post Match Discussion - Elimination Final
91,000 + at the G Felt like 70,000 supporting the Dees, incredible atmosphere and led from start to finish. Incredible football team and now l will always believed in this side that has been built since the Roos years. Now Goody is carrying on with his fantastic work so far. Viney is something special and Weideman is going to be something , infact the football club is in a good space. Yes! we can do it.

WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - BRAYDON PREUSS
Preuss is 23yo 206 cm and 110 kgs. Big boy that can move well and has impressive tap work. Is from QLD and played rugby. Converted to Aussie rules at 16. Positions played Ruck and full forward and a ready made back up for Gawny. Contracted at NM till 2020. Why would we persue him? Because he might be a good insurance incase Gawny goes down he can certainly take a mark. Maybe he wants to come to us because he wants to play for a top side and learn from the best in Maxy.

Farewell Jesse Hogan
You are in LA LA LAND You are a stirrer lol .. you don't need to cause this problem about trade. You were not at the game today obviously. You are not a true Dees faithful.

The Many Sides of Jake Melksham
Jake has speed to burn knows where the goals are and has a thumping kick. However l believe that he will be one of many that will help us go deep into the Finals in the not to distant future. Well done Jake on your 150th Afl games. Have a great game and hope that the Bomber supporters are watching and wondering why you are a better player at the Demons. Go Dees!

The Need for Outside Midfielders
Tmac struggled and hardly touched the ball bruised lung of course you know all that and very tentative. J Smith and Petty just not up to It at the minute. How can you not look slow and out of sorts when you are struggling with hand and foot? The last 2 I mention didn't bust their gut. I agree with you lets hope we don't capitulate
-
The Need for Outside Midfielders
Yes l agree with you there, However they won those games although the opposition looked slow. Is that the way it works? So if we win on the G next time we play is it because we are not slow anymore? Let's wait and see how we go at the G against Bulldogs, G Coast, SYD and GWS. and and get a better idea. There are a whole lot of reasons why we are not playing well. A win will help. Whats above the shoulder is where the confidence comes from.

The Need for Outside Midfielders
Its not that the players are unfit, they lack confidence. We beat the Saints merley 6 weeks ago we Didn't look slow then. Need to get the balance right. Players are fit however you see it. It is amazing what a win can do.
-
Farewell Dean Kent
If Kent gets himself right soon enough and maybe after the break he has the potential to break a game open. Shows that he can kick multiple goals and gathers possessions consistently when he is on. A nuggety player however, he is injury prone. I hope he stays as he still has time on his side. He could be the X factor.

Adelaide’s Tom Lynch
Lets look after our stock now that they are starting to show more promising results. Lynch doesn't fit the bill ,what we need is an outside Mid as we know in Gaff and to go after him hard. However we don't need a TMac generic.

Is Brayshaw more rounded than the Trac?
I personally don't want to compare Petracc an Gus as l love both of them playing for us. They are going to be super players and help build a great culture and hopefully lead to a to a premiership . Need to sign up Gus sooner rather than later. How fortunate we are to have both of them.

WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - CHARLIE SPARGO
It's always a good time to bring in a first gamer as we need a bit of enthusiasm and Charlie Spargo will add a bit of bite close to goals. Hopefully he is picked in the 22 when they finalise the side.

Ollie Wines
We had Ollie and was to join Melbourne at pick 4 and to be with his close mate in Jack Viney. GWS had the first 3 picks in the National Draft and Melbourne had pick no 4.which came from GWS for an uncontracted player compensation pick, that happened to be for Scully. Toumpas was to be picked up early and fell through to pick 4. Todd Viney and co decided to pick Toumpas ahead of Ollie and he slipped through to Pick 7. Note! After picking Toumpas at 4 the next pick at 5 was Jake Stringer, WHAT IF? GOD HELP US !
-
Angus Brayshaw
Angus Brayshaw will come into the side soon enough and it won't be after a concussion or an another injury , it will be because he is ready to come in fresh and.... injury free ! Got a gig late in the season after missing many games because of concussion and off the HBF and held his own. He is a young gun no doubt about that. Looking forward to seeing him back very soon. Maybe as soon as the NM game.
-
Sam Weideman
Weideman played his best game against Hawthorn. That was his first senior game late in the season 2016. kicked 2 goal and was involved early in that game. Finished the game off well. He has the potential has time on his side, however he will have to make a move on . Lets hope he turns it around very soon and showcases ability in 2018.

WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - CHARLIE SPARGO
Yes, Craig did a reasonable job and he has moved on. You say the signs do look good and it's still early to tell. Now that's sounds promising, wouldn't you say. We, all of us here want to see the club succeed. I bought my first membership for $1.25 in 1967. Fifty consecutive years as a member. I like to be around a while too.

WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - CHARLIE SPARGO
I thank our lucky stars that we have the best recruiting people in Jason Taylor leading them. the strike rate of picking in the draft over the last 3 to 4 years has been second to none. Have a look at our draft picks of recent years with Jason there.
