Going for 48 consecutive rounds in the top-four
Going for our 13th consecutive interstate victory (last loss was QB at the SCG in ’21)
With a strong side in (Pickett and arguably Salem the only ones missing), it should be a good test of where we’re at.

2023 Nick “426” Smith Memorial Trophy Leader-Board

It’s the 2023 edition of the Melbourne Board’s MVP main thread; the Nick “426” Smith Memorial Trophy.

#41 Judd McVee – better than Salem(?) Discuss

Welcome to the Melbourne Football Club, Judd Mcvee.

Judd was chosen at pick 18 (due to Melbourne winning the 2021 AFL Premiership) in the 2021 rookie draft. Judd is yet another player from the great city of Perth, Western Australia.
