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 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.

    • DRAFT: The Next Generation

      It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

    • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

      A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
