Jones - dynamic when needed

Dunn - unstoppable in defence

Hogan - constantly provided target

Watts - dynamic link man

Dawes - tried but clumsy

Viney - wonderful tagging game

Lumumba - dynamic and safe

Brayshaw - great second half

Tyson - lethargic and wasteful

Cross - outstanding tagging role

Garland - excellent defensive drive

Michie - just lacked nous

Vince - another wonderful game

McDonald - was rarely noticed

Neal-Bullen - failed to impose

Grimes - better second half

Garlett - just a cameo

Howe - finally 4 quarters

Jetta - displayed great endeavour

vandenBerg - tough and disciplined

Harmes - made an impression

Gawn - knows he belongs

    Harsh on Tyson. Was a bit wasteful but nine tackles, six clearances and 23 disposals indicates he did a decent job.

    Disagree on Dawes. I thought he was good today.

    Tysons disposal early was horrible and so was hi awareness but I thought the second half he got much better.

    Dunn was superb, thought Garlos was good too

    Cross killed Sidebottom after halftime, he had 21 to half tim then Cross went on him and he was hardly seen after that.

    Pretty good joeboy, although I think it's a little harsh on ANB. 15 touches and 6 tackles is not a bad effort from a first year player.

    Neal - Bullen will be a player.

    esp playing as a fwd flanker

    Dawes had the second highest disposal efficiency (85.7%) only behind Brayshaw - he was actually decent today but needs to impact the scoreboard more

    Not sure if it's because he's playing with an injury, but Dom Tyson seems like he has lost a bit since last year. Last year in tight he always looked classy and always had more time and managed to get out of traffic without being caught. This year he seems to find some space but gets pinged for holding the ball a lot more. Hopefully next season he can return to his 2014 form. A very important player and could be an elite midfielder if he keeps improving.

    Tyson had some brilliant in close handpasses today

    Tyson got caught htb plenty last year as well.

    Really? I counted at least 5 times he got the Dukes to the ball and dropped it. Failed to kick that goal in last qtr to seal it. Fumbled it regularly today. I would say poor.

    Collingwood- won't play finals

    Melbourne- broke the hoodoo

    Good clearance work, but the stats don't show how slow he is with ball in hand.

    Those who hate Toumpas loved to pipe up about every time Toumpas got caught with the ball - it's happening to Tyson far more regularly than it ever happened to Toumpas.

    It's a frustrating trend in Tyson's game right now - he's coasting to contests a bit, and when he gets in them he's regularly too slow to dispose of it.

    Still, as I said, I like his clearance work and we need to keep playing Vince, Viney, Tyson, Jones with Gawn to keep them learning.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

    • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Collingwood

      Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.

    • GAMEDAY: Collingwood

      It's Game Day and the Demons face a monumental task as they take on the top-of-the-table Magpies in one of the biggest games on the Dees calendar: the King's Birthday Big Freeze MND match. Can the Demons defy the odds and claim a massive scalp to keep their finals hopes alive?
