Coached the last 2 seasons in the VAFA, is far from the most credentialed coach in Div 1… Fantastic assistants, however it’s the senior coach that does the heavy lifting.
Would love to see MV play finals, just don’t see it when have 6-7 others better placed imo.
Will not finish top 5…. Have lost 3 top players in Fry, Ryan and Aitken + a couple more. Big name recruit in Toy (won’t play full season) then done well with young 1 pointers returning to club. Have they gotten better? Hard to say, have gained some depth though which is great.
Going to be a...

Dont agree. Melbourne are tipped to slide big time and Adelaide haven’t improved ladder position in years.
Would wager that Gold coast finish ahead of Adelaide and Melbourne this year.
Stiff copping Sydney and Carlton; the rest can live with.
10 games outside Melbourne
3x Sa
3x Tas
2x NSW
2xPerth.
It is terrible. Certain other Melbourne clubs will be 5 games Max. Better not be a trip to Geelong in there.
May as well be called the travelling Kangaroos which is a name we worked so hard to move away from.
Apparently it is Tigers, Crows, Dees as the bottom 6 double ups. Then Sydney, Dogs and Carlton as the top 6 and middle 6 double ups.
Not confirmed yet however fixture is sharping that way which makes me think it’s very accurate.
Not a big fan of the CEO coming out and saying ‘he will stay’…. Then when asked, ‘he said it last year I’m not saying anything he hasn’t said ‘
Let contract talks play out privately, not in the public setting. Cant imagine Luke or his management would be thrilled with that.
Yes. Round 2 is a home game at marvel so I suspect round 1 is an away game vs dogs at marvel (could be wrong )
Dogs game is a Saturday and Dees Sunday.
St Bedes looking like the early team to beat in 2025. A fair few signings of ex players returning. Have lost a couple however would expect them to be very strong in C grade, young age profile also so plenty of room for development.
Districts going to finish much higher . Retained majority of list and added Cavka who is undoubtedly the best player in the comp and a couple handy recruits he has managed to bring with him.
The only concern is it reeks of a club going all in to win a div 2 flag, what happens when go up to div 1 and they lose 6-7 senior guys? Similar thing happened in 2015 and it ruined the club.
Have a good 16s and 18s this time around, however that is not enough and can’t just rely on it. It is...
Hadfield gone hard, must question the age of the recruits though. Have a very good 18s which we saw winning the flag.
However majority of recruits this year are early to mid 30s, not sustainable if do have some success.
Great to see them on the rise though !
Good player, kicked 55 in C grade and still lost every week by 10 goals plus though.
Need a lot more…. Will struggle to make finals in D1 with current list.
Has played the last 3 years, albeit only limited amount of games. Wouldn’t expect him to play any more then 12 games, however will make a big impact in the games he plays.
Lock didn’t play a game last year and struggled in 2023. Yes ex AFL however don’t think he’s a massive inclusion. Good for leadership and experience though.
