Surely Angus is favourite for the Rising Star now. That intercept mark and charge through the middle was magnificent.

    He deserves a second bloody nomination for how he played today.

    How was Vinces goal on his left!

    Bloody cracker.

    Haven't seen a thing but just completed stats here.

    Vince posted the highest (weighted) score for the team for the whole year today. Beating the previous highest effort by the Jones boy on QB!

    Must have been one helluva game as he was supposedly tagging Blicavs as well :blink:

    Cripps is the only person stopping it being a quinella of Demons.

    And how about the follow up after Enright nailed him? Just went at the next contest even harder!

    Ignore the ridiculous headline.

    Check where ANB comes from in this clip. He's next to Lumumba when he kicks. Then next to Jones when he kicks. Then gets the jo the goose. Fantastic.

    Sure Jack played on, BUT wasn't he so super cool with that handball to ANB for a goal. He certainly is a prime mover in the thought department. Some would call it having a natural footy brain.

    Wish this bloddy tram would get home quicker so I can put the replay on! Some old bird just grabbed me on the cheeks and said "Congratulations from a Carlton supporter, you little ripper!" What a day!

    My order is Hogan, Cripps then Brayshaw.

    Cripps and Brayshaw will be two of the best midfielders in the league in a couple of years.

    Could someone let me know how Watts was today?

    I only caught the second half, but the thing that stood out to me was his defensive pressure. That's something I never thought I'd see from him.

  • Quote

    Jack Watts has truly turned a corner. Thank McCartney for all the work he has been doing with him.

    He's finally trusting his speed and strength, and willing to go in hard when he needs to.

    It's amazing what good coaching can bring.

    Sorry, I thought you all told me we were going to lose by 100?

    Credit to Goodvibes who picked it.

    So, so stoked.

    You're being very generous Nasher.

    I'm not sure I picked it. I was merely mounting a case for not getting smashed.

    Our midfield looked amazing today. So excited by Brayshaw and Viney. Tyson had some good moments but if Gawn can build from here and continue to clunk marks like he did today, we're in for a ride.

    I am genuinely thrilled for Jack Watts. He finally looks as though he belongs and has found his position.

    He had the best smile at the end of the game - I think he genuinely loves the Dees.

  • Quote

    Dont forget Vanders! and tyson if he returns to form

    What exactly is wrong with Tyson?

  • Quote

    ANB =. The other small forward we needed.

    Left foot from 50 in traffic, iced the game with it.

    I'm in the mood for being generous, mate. That really was something else.

    Jack Viney makes a massive difference to this footy club.

    I've never seen so many opposition players [censored] themselves when he digs in....

    • 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.

    • 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.
