    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.

    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.

    Hibberd BOG for me 

    Petracca had a big influence on the game, and would have gone close if not for a few lazy entries.

    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.

    • REPORT: Adelaide

      The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.

    • CASEY: Coburg

      The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

    • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
