Incredible effort for Tyson to get up from a fracture arm sustained less than 2 weeks ago, and he coexisted with Viney and the other inside mids.

Yes

T.McDonald - great first half

Yep ... and the same degree of effort was there in the 2nd half

Harmes - loved his application 

Here we go

Salem - was all class

Yep

Petracca - had limited involvement 

Really classy but can do more ... the last quarter handpass to Jones was the game-ender though - Kudos.

Tyson - tried and failed

Played well and played his part.

Fritsch - was rarely sighted

Standout moments as usual - vital player

Hibberd - dynamic when needed

Yep

Spargo - tired and overawed

The 22nd player picked was not disgraced

Manzel had like 1 touch and then he smashed Ablett. Jetta is so underrated it’s a joke. Best small defender in the competition by a mile.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc.
