Hibberd looks the part for someone who hasn't played in 18 months.

Haven't seen much of Johnstone yet.

He's been adapting for 12 months 

Which is nothing in the scheme of things when you sit it next to Barrassi's 5 year plan

This chick is a terrible umpire. 

no way, she's been great 


I have waited for the day that Melbourne players would get the ball, know exactly what they are meant to do next and be able to execute quickly and cleanly. We just look very even with everyone knowing what to do. Our ball movement out of deep 50 needs work (please move Vince up the ground) but otherwise looking good.

Im calling it now.

Spencer and Weideman as lock ins for round one.

Weed works so hard and is very smart, a perfect foil for Hoges.

Spencer is in good form and allows Gawn more time in the forward line.

Both make us a better side, much more balanced and dangerous.

I'm pleased for Spencer but I'm not sold on having two rucks against the Aints at Etihad, round 1.

 

Loving Oliver, Hogan and Salem. 

Not loving Tom McDonald. Give his brother the ball. 

Hibberd can have Melksham's spot.

Disagree, Spencer hasn't taken a mark hasn't troubled the scorers and only had 6 hitouts. All of Watts Frost and Pederson are better choices


Tom McDonald has been one of our best.  No errors, no turnovers & he has beaten his man.  Is giving us good drive out of defence as well.

He's made the dumbest decisions with the ball he could make. 

Missed Hibberd in an acre of space which resulted in a turnover. 

Can't believe the size of this crowd!  It's 4 times bigger than a large VFL crowd.

Still managed to find the E&B roll stand 

:wub:

Tom kicked the ball out in front of Hibberd and Hibberd then transgressed the rules

Instead of diving at the footy Hibberd should have taken out the Carlton player with a hip and shoulder and then gathered the ball.


Melksham with good moments in the third quarter so far.

Max Gawn kicks his second.

Petracca is going to be a headache for opposition sides. Hard match up. Going to be some player. Last week he out bodied Marcus Adams, this week he is pin pointing blokes and moving like Jayden Hunt. What a hard match up.

Are we that much better? Or are Carlscum absolutely disgusting???

We are controlling just about everything. OMac has done some good things.

Meanwhile, Jesse kicks his third.

Are the blue naggers missing a heap of players? 

Wowee looks like a training run for us. The pressure we are putting on is exceptional.

In saying that our skills will cost us a couple of games this year.

Considering one of their goals came from a freakish boundary shot (from a young rookie), and now the umps just gifted Cunningham a goal (why I do not know). Carlton should only be 2-3 goals.

  • 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.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    Following an injury-interrupted start to the season, McVee struggled to maintain the standard he established in 2025 as he pursued an expanded role within the team structure. He remained a firm fan favourite and the club had hoped to negotiate a new contract with the former rookie selection from Western Australia, whose partner, Lily Johnson, plays for Melbourne's AFLW side. Those hopes were dashed when he expressed his desire to return to his home state and play for Fremantle. Like all players who have worn the red and blue and are leaving this year, we wish him well in the future.
