    Scott is the one that gave 2 to Motlop

    The 5 best players on the ground were clearly Demons... Ling gave his 5-4-3-2-1 votes all to Demons

    Scott is a biased [censored].

    But Roos strikes me as the type to have the class to award a token vote (and note the 1 vote) to the opposition just out of respect and determination not to be biased. Scott was probably filthy and made sure none of his got any 'reward'. In particular I reckon he knew that Viney blanketing his skipper was their major undoing and voted accordingly. Motlop was pretty good, but Brayshaw probably still deserved his votes.

    Motlop ???????

    Motlop was bloody good, especially in the first half. I don't have a problem with him getting some points.

    Agree, thought Motlop kept them in the game.

    His contracts up, is he worth a go at....'Machsy' what's the word on him?

    We could certainly do with a bit more outside run and he does get his own ball.

    Having just watched a replay of the game, I'd say Motlop certainly deserved recognition.

    He kept them in the game.

    But big Max was IMHO the standout.

    One of their only players who provided run. 27 touches and 2 goals. He'd slot in nicely at Melbourne.

    Next year he would be a depth player for us, might struggle to get a game at the dees.

    I live for the day that a player like Motlop is a depth player for us who would stuggle to be in our best.

    • The Clayton Oliver Thread

      Melbourne have held talks with Clayton Oliver and they’ve laid out where he fits in under Steve King’s vision and been frank about expectations. Oliver is still under contract for five years, but the door is open if he wants to explore his options elsewhere.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

      It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

      The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

      The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem   

      Salem proved to be a valuable contributor as a reliable and solid one-on-one medium-sized defender in what was undoubtedly his most impressive season since the premiership year. He remains a highly capable rebounding option for the Demons as he approaches his 200th game at the club.
