  1. Injuries are injuries but if we look at Richmond’s current injury list, we should definitely not be complaining about our lot.
  2. The persistent Tigers held on for three quarters before the Demons, powered by some accuracy in front of goal (for once), ran away at the end of the game. Harry Petty kicked 6.0 while Jake Melksham and JvR managed 4.0 each. Unfortunately, all three were missing when the team was ousted from the finals in September.

  3. Scouting Notes: AFL Academy vs. Coburg VFL
  4. A versatile player to look out for in this year’s draft.
  5. Joel Smith is also out for reasons that are well documented.

  7. Squads named for Victorian Under 18 trials
  8. Based on the above and the club's published injury list these are the AFL listed players we can expect to see tomorrow. Jed Adams, Kynan Brown, Kyah Farris-White, Tom Fullarton, Lachie Hunter, Matt Jefferson, Bailey Laurie, Andy Moniz-Wakefield, Josh Schache, Ollie Sestan, Adam Tomlinson, Daniel Turner and Will Verrall. However, based on some of the training reports, one or two of the above might not play.
  9. This is usually a big game on the draft calendar - one in which reputations can often be made. PREVIEW | AFL U18 Australian Academy vs. Coburg VFL
  10. The squads have started coming in for the U18 National Championships and high-flyer Ned Bowman (see post above) has been selected. 2024 South Australian U18 squad finalised
  11. He’s the Kolt but not from Snowy River. Still, it’s worthwhile recognizing the work of one of our great poets who knew quality when he saw it.
  12. Ollie Sestan was not named on the injury list. Mystery injury of the week?
  13. Five games in and they’ve already named a railroad station after him!
  14. ANB not there? That’s a surprise.
  15. Thanks to everyone who contributed. We have a full match preview ready but now await the tribunal verdict on Kozzie to enable the final edit to be done.
  16. I really haven’t noticed it - probably because I’m more interested in the content.
  17. Good start … and the clubhouse leader. Where are all of our expert commentators?
  18. Injury Report | Defender Set for Return Check out Melbourne's latest injury report ahead of Round 5. Looking forward to Daniel Turner’s return.
  19. It’s interesting that after five matches, a number of our supposed best 23 have hardly graced the field of play or not appeared at all. In addition, there are a few who have played in circumstances where they aren’t close to full fitness (eg May - ribs, Oliver - hand). And one or two of the younger brigade are getting closer to selection. Which means that there’s still a lot of improvement left in the coming months.
  20. Melbourne established its credentials as a top four contender with a thrilling come-from-behind one point win over the highly Brisbane Lions at the MCG. Max Gawn, Christian Petracca and Jack Viney starred. MELBOURNE 6.2.38 8.3.51 12.4.76 16.9.105 BRISBANE LIONS 3.3.21 8.4.52 15.7.97 16.8.104 THE TEAMS MELBOURNE B J. McVee H. Petty J. Lever HB J.

  21. Another big win to the Sandringham Dragons, this time over the Eastern Ranges in the rematch of last year’s Grand Final.

  22. The vision I’ve seen of the controversial mark paid to Carlton’s Matthew Cottrell suggests that Fremantle was robbed yesterday. Why didn’t something like this happen last year when we were deathriding them?
  23. Does this rule out the possibility of getting a Burraburger at the game?
