6 Viney - kept fighting and chasing all night and almost got us across line late.

5 May - Huge factor on Hipwood who killed us last time.

4 Gawn - scragged and maimed but kept trying his darndest

3 Oliver - A couple of woeful early kicks but his workrate was amazing

2 Lockhart - Clean when others weren't.  Intercepted courageously. What a game

1 Lever - Smart all night, even though he was less prominent than May.

 

Gawn was definitely in our best 6 tonight.  Position by position he was the only midfielder who wasn't beaten by his Brisbane counterpart over the entirety of the game.  Neale, Lyons, Zorko, McLuggage pretty much had their way tonight. Whilst it wasn't one of Max's stellar performances he was very good again.  Viney's effort was outstanding after half time and Oliver had his moments as well, despite some less than average disposal early. Tracc played just a game by his now lofty standards, just the one mark and no score. But as a group they lowered their colours.  I'll be really interested in the coaches view of this one.  I reckon a defender or two might pop up.

Not sure I agree with this. If you win the tap out but we lose the clearance then your effectiveness must be in question.

And for a ruckman if you only take three marks then I don't see how you feature in the votes ahead of guys that won their positions like Lever, May and probably Melksham...

Yes but there are 6 votes aren't there?  I agree May, Lever and Melksham were in the best 6 too. My point was that Gawn clearly wasn't beaten by his opponents and provided our midfield first use.  I think you'll find Goodwin agreed with me on this point in his presser.  Our mids were too fumbly and when the ball got loose the Brisbane mids tore us a new one.  That is not Gawn's fault.

5 Oliver - settles after a couple of early errors

4 May - very solid

3 Gawn - didn’t get the marking, but still good

2 Langdon - underrated game imo

1 Petracca - quieter but still good

  • REPORT: Geelong

    I was disappointed to hear Goody say at his post match presser after the team’s 39 point defeat against Geelong that "we're getting high quality entry, just poor execution" because Melbourne’s problems extend far beyond that after its 0 - 4 start to the 2025 football season. There are clearly problems with poor execution, some of which were evident well before the current season and were in play when the Demons met the Cats in early May last year and beat them in a near top-of-the-table clash that saw both sides sitting comfortably in the top four after round eight. Since that game, the Demons’ performances have been positively Third World with only five wins in 19 games with a no longer majestic midfield and a dysfunctional forward line that has become too easy for opposing coaches to counter. This is an area of their game that is currently being played out as if they were all completely panic-stricken.

  • PREGAME: Essendon

    Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

  • NON-MFC: Round 04

    Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

  • POSTGAME: Geelong

    The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.
