Jake Lever points the finger against Hawthorn on Friday night.

"See that? Right there! He threw it!"

"Yeah .... so what?  In rugby you can do that."

"This is Aussie Rules, you dumb ***!!"

"Oh right ... feet only ... but you can head it. So ... is that guy the goalie?"

Lever was awesome. Cool calm and measured. hes back to his 2017 all Australian form if he keeps his form up.

While May was rusty with some of his disposal, it's so good to have a big monster down back who can take the big forwards. He will be vital for is in terms of leadership down if he stays fit.

Some of Lever's disposal was awry as well. Let's look at the final result instead of nitpicking every nuance. In the old days you went to the footy and enjoyed the spectacle as a visceral once only performance. These days every time a player scratches his head band or puts a finger in one nasal aperture and lets boogs fly from the other it's not only on camera but on replay then for years on You Tube afterwards. It's an imperfect game...

Lever and May together down back

Petracca in the middle and Fritsch forward

Langdon and Tomlinson on the wings

Jones forward, Lockhart back, a rejuvenated Viney and Melksham and Kozzie lurking in the pocket

There is actually a lot of significant differences to last years side.

Sorry DD, but 'All Australian squad' form.

Same thing. The fact that he was in the initial squad alone is an amazing achievement and shows what he's capable of.

Jeffy Garlett was in that squad too from memory.

And so he should have been: he played great games for us.

Also from memory, he did kick 40+ goals as a small forward that season.

I'm sure it's already been said elsewhere, but how good was it seeing him run right through Wingard

The kick in from May to Gawn from the goal square, which immediately led to Langdon sprinting down the wing and then delivering it to Fristch, who converted skillfully on his left, was great to watch - but, on so many levels, it also represented the significant difference between this season and last.

That so many industry observers and commentators (most notably The Roar) fail to recognise these differences surprises me. Injuries permitting, we should definitely be in the mix this year. And a critical factor in this will be the May and Lever partnership - both of whom I’m hoping will be in the AA conversation by the end of this season.

I reckon they’ll both prove themselves to be fantastic recruits for this club.

I think 'balance' is the key to the 2020 team with most of the side now able to play in positions they are now suited to

It’s Leigh Fisher in the pic. If that’s his grasp on the rules it might explain the fairly premature end to his playing career!

Ha ha Yeah that may be getting a little carried away but good to see 'Tickets' & May show some solid form nevertheless.....Just hope they both stay injury free as that will be a major factor in our success.

  • PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Way back in March we contemplated the possibility of a Demon resurgence after Simon Goodwin’s summer of love. Many issues at the club had seemingly been addressed, key players were returning from injury and a brand new day was about to dawn. We imagined the coach pulling a rabbit out of a hat. The team would roar up the charts, push aside every opponent and make its way to a Grand Final ending in ultimate triumph with Goody and Max holding the premiership cup aloft under a shower of red and blue ticker tape.

  • AFLW REPORT: Western Bulldogs

    We’re back! That was fun. The Mighty Dees’ Season 10 campaign is off toa flying start with a commanding 48-point winover the Western Bulldogs, retaining the Hampson-Hardeman Cup in style. After a hard-fought first half in slippery conditions, the Dees came out in the second half and showcased their trademark superior class, piling on four goals in the third termand never looked back.

  • REPORT: Hawthorn

    The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

  • CASEY: Box Hill

    The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.

  • PREGAME: Collingwood

    The final game of the 2025 Season is finally upon us and the Demons may have an opportunity to spoil the Magpies Top 4 aspirations when they face them on Friday Night. Who comes in and who goes out?
