Smith has been really influential late in the second and early in the 3rd. He's playing a bit of a Brad Miller type role for us if I'm not mistaken.

    Hunt again so dangerous. Jeffry hitting the scoreboard again like he does every week.

    Keep up the hard run and intensity boys!

    It's called turning your man or taking the tackle....he is devoid of evasive skills and confidence with ball in hand and instead always panic gives to either someone about to be set upon or out to no where in particular as soon as there's a bit of heat on.  Has no assets other than staying close to his man but then rarely wins in a one on one.

    May's slackness has cost us in this role big time this year.

    Not going to argue because i agree, he does lack those things,(but what full back would turn west coasts small forwards?) thats why i thought it was his best option. tonight he attacked the ball in a pack of eagles and took the mark. So far he has done a lot more good than bad, and his tackles have stuck. on his performance so far tonight i wont be checking for his name in the outs next week.

     

    one more goal to us , and it blows it open right!??


    Jones was on his own for an eternity. Got to lower the eyes and hit those short targets.

    Where's the BIG man in the square?!?

    The only chance West Coast seems to have of scoring is for us to f things up. And boy we did not disappoint there.


    What a waste that passage was. Can't stand Kennedy.

    Defensive shambles. All because we can’t use the [censored] ball!!!!!!!!!

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

    • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Collingwood

      Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.
