Jones - disposal was iffy

Viney - great second half

Jetta - had little involvement 

O.McDonald - was rarely troubled

Smith - little to excite

Lewis - fumbled too often

Frost - impressive and steady 

Salem - kicking was sublime

Stretch - improved with confidence 

Oliver - 4 impressive quarters 

Gawn - dominated the centre

Fritch - is looking tired

Melksham - was hardly sighted

T. McDonald - provided a target

Spargo - did little well

Hogan - team focused game

Neal-Bullen - effective tagging game

Garlett - on shaky ground

Hibberd - reliable and effective 

Brayshaw - classy and prolific 

Harmes - continued impressive patch

Petracca - more impressive output

 

I'm loving the Salem attention at the moment. His skill in this 22 is massive.

 

Fritsch looking tired?  What game were you watching joeboy?  The bloke had 25 touches and got better as the game wore on.  

Who was ANB tagging by the way?  

Generally agree with the rest, but the Fritsch one is a shocker.

I hope Stretch gets a game next week?

Fritschy was good tonight.

Why wouldn't he? i thought he showed good composure, busted tackles, laid tackle, adds much needed speed why would he get dropped?

 

Fritsch looking tired?

He was clearly a top 5 player and was gliding for mine.

Think ANB was tagging himself - and it worked.


Lewis - 50m penalty was undisciplined and tendency to avoid picking up the hardball looking to soccer it / disposal wasnt as effective perhaps the humidity / not his best

MFC - small forward problems

Garlett did a bit, but not enough. Spargo was similar. We are in desperate need of a solution when the ball is brought to ground inside our forward 50. Melksham and Nibbler are also cooling off meaning we are very Hogan and Tmac reliant for kicking a winning score 

I don't have the answer, but this might be something to address in the draft.

He was tagging the standard of the game and it worked.   But unlikely he was shutting down a specific opponent.  He started on the bench and in the first 15 minutes he can be seen chasing after Sheridan, Hamling, Ryan and Wilson at various points.

Well he has been in the past.

Drop him for Baker. Give him a kick in the ass for a better end to the year!

  • POSTGAME: Sydney

    The Demons controlled the contest from the outset, though inaccurate kicking kept the Swans in the game until half time. But after the break, Melbourne put on the jets and blew Sydney away and the demolition job was complete.

  • CASEY: Northern Bullants

    The Casey Demons travelled to a windy Cramer Street, Preston yesterday and blew the Northern Bullants off the ground for three quarters before shutting up shop in the final term, coasting to a much-needed 71-point victory after leading by almost 15 goals at one stage. It was a pleasing performance that revived the Demons’ prospects for the 2025 season but, at the same time, very little can be taken from the game because of the weak opposition. These days, the Bullants are little more than road kill. The once proud club, situated behind the Preston Market in a now culturally diverse area, is currently facing significant financial and on-field challenges, having failed to secure a win to date in 2025.

  • GAMEDAY: Sydney

    It’s Game Day, and the Demons have a golden opportunity to build on last week’s stirring win by toppling Sydney at the MCG. A victory today would keep them firmly in the hunt for a finals spot and help them stay in touch with the pack chasing a place in the Top 8. Can the Dees make it two in a row and bring down the Swans?

  • NON-MFC: Round 11

    Round 11, the second week of The Sir Doug Nicholls Round, kicks off on Thursday night with the Cats hosting the Bulldogs at Kardinia Park. Geelong will be looking to to continue their decade long dominance over the Bulldogs, while the Dogs aim to take another big scalp as they surge up the ladder. On Friday night it's he Dreamtime at the 'G clash between Essendon and Richmond. The Bombers will want to avoid another embarrassing performance against a lowly side whilst the Tigers will be keen to avenge a disappointing loss to the Kangaroos. Saturday footy kicks off as the Blues face the Giants in a pivotal clash for both clubs. Carlton need to turn around their up and down season while GWS will be eager to bounce back and reassert themselves as a September threat. At twilight sees the Hawks taking on the Lions at the G. Hawthorn need to cement themselves in the Top 4 but they’ll need to be at their best to challenge a Brisbane side eager to respond after last week’s crushing loss to the Dees on their home turf. The first of the Saturday night double headers opens with North Melbourne up against the high-flying Magpies. The Roos will need a near-perfect performance to trouble a Collingwood side sitting atop the ladder.
