Well done tonight Joeboy. Your best yet.

Thought Weid was good, especially back up from last week. Took some good contested marks and his kicking action is to die for. Dropped a chaos ball kick in the middle but laid an absolutely monster tackle to keep it in.

Never thought I would be saying this but you have been a bit hard on Spargo he was better than that.

JB top summation overall, team  performance improved markedly after half time as did many individual performances. Suggest alternative -Tyson teases again?

Not bad JB. Agree with most.

Tyson was good in the last. Lucky for him or else he might have gone out.

Melk sat on Sicily according to Goody in the presser so whilst he was quite he did his job as Sicily didn't hurt us.

Fritter made a few bad errors but jeez he has good hands and reads the ball beautifully. Great move putting him down back. 

Omac - aka Dr Cool - played a super committed game. Got pole axed big time at one point in the second q and wobbled up to fight another contest. Ahe is a really nice kick. Fritter, Omac, Salem, Hibberd and Jetts are all good reliable kicks which is super important coming out from our back half. 

The back six and maxy saved us in the second quarter with their fantastic desperation.

Watched Nibbler a bit and saw him run extra distances to get to cover players and wave the better players like Viney, Oliver etc back so they could roll back to the contest down the field and not get stuck on the mark. Does a lot of team things.

nice synopsis.

I think a tad harsh in brayshaw. yes he was quiet but he kicked 2 crucial goals.

weideman: converted under pressure 

and melksham was so good in the last quarter. his goal on the left from 50m was so clutch!!! hawks were coming too. then he followed it up with 2 contested marks on sicily and another goal. almost gota vote for me tonight just for his last quarter.

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo.
