6- Howe ( Fantastic all day . Skills were sublime )

5 - M.Jones ( Far from outstanding , but our only successful runner )

4 - Frawley ( overwhelmed , but focused all day )

3 - Trengove ( actually looked fit and played accordingly , though was still swamped )

2 - McKenzie ( hard at it all game , but rarely hurt opposition )

1 - Jamar ( merely for weight of knockouts , but unfortunately little support from onballers )

    Absolutely not.

    He was rucking against Zac Clarke. Clarke is awful. He's only playing because Sandilands and Griffin are injured.

    To take 0 marks all day is pathetic for a ruckman. 1 kick is just as bad.

    Jamar was rank.

    Who cares.

    Get some real people running the club before even considering who the "best" players are.

    Such negativity. This is a positive thread to reward those who actually try.

    x 2. Only blokes who went hard at the footy once today. When the footy miraculously made it into our forward 50, davey was the only bloke who made any attempt to keep it there. Watch him nev and tapscott, learn something ffs

    1. Mckenzie (put effort in which is something a majority need to look at, his & Nicho's shortfalls would not stand out as much if some other players put the effort in neither of them are any worse than Matt DeBoer, Adam Selwood, Brad Dalziell or others on AFL lists who are surrounded by quality Mids)

    M.Jones

    Terlich he will be a big out if broken ribs confirmed

    Trengove

    N.Jones he is all heart and god he would be a great asset in a good side

    Howe a must keep for this club

    Worst On Ground goes to Jamar. 20 something nothing hit outs against a d-grade ruckman and a rookie listed ruckman. 1 kick. 0 handballs. 0 marks. 6 tackles because he was too slow to ever get a hold of the ball.
    Awful performance. He has quickly fallen away as a player, and the fact he still has 2.5 years of his contract remaining is a huge concern for us. At his best he would always compete hard, provide a marking option around the ground and feed it off to runners passing by after clunking the marks from kick outs, long kicks to the wing etc. This made up for the fact he never had a high disposal count.
    Now he is a liability. if he wins a tap it goes straight to his feet and is useless. As soon as the centre bounce is done he falls over and we effectively play a man down from then on around the ground as he struggles to jog along to where ever he thinks the next stoppage will be. He wouldn't and shouldn't get a game at any AFL club based on form.

    6. Howe - really good.

    5. Trengove - possibly his best for a couple of years.

    4. Terlich - continues to impress.

    3. N Jones - if only he had some decent midfield support!

    2. McKenzie - a bit closer to the Jordie we know and admire.

    1. M. Jones - ok

    • PREVIEW: North Melbourne

      Can you believe it? After a long period of years over which Melbourne has dominated in matches against North Melbourne, the Demons are looking down the barrel at two defeats at the hands of the Kangaroos in the same season. And if that eventuates, it will come hot on the heels of an identical result against the Gold Coast Suns. How have the might fallen? There is a slight difference in that North Melbourne are not yet in the same place as Gold Coast. Like Melbourne, they are currently situated in the lower half of the ladder and though they did achieve a significant upset when the teams met earlier in the season, their subsequent form has been equally unimpressive and inconsistent.

    • REPORT: Adelaide

      The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.

    • CASEY: Coburg

      The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

    • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

      After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
