Oliver - genius at work

Petracca - continued outstanding season

Brayshaw - enjoyed more involvement 

McDonald - played his part

Langdon - an important connector

Sparrow - was rarely sighted

Fritsch - classy but wasteful

Hibberd - important attacking defender

Lever - outstanding all game

Weideman - didn’t take chances

Salem - was rarely required 

Pickett - ready to erupt

Hannan - was great early

Spargo - surprised us all

vandenBerg - didn’t offer much

Rivers - composed and promising

Melksham - not captain material

Jackson - some exciting involvements 

May - confident and important 

Jones - did just enough

Tomlinson - provided some linkage

Harmes - needs a rest

 

Agree with all... except for two.

Sparrow has a really good game.  17 touches, 4 tackles and a goal is a good day out for a kid in his second season.  He is really showing something at the moment.

And thought Weideman deserved more than 'didn't take chances'.  While that is true, he was excellent in the first half and really kept us in the game.

Joeboy - very accurate review

I agree with comment Melksham- not captain material.  I think he’s on the edge of the selection precipice each week.  He’s a great kick for goal but doesn’t get involved enough.  I would have preferred May as the captain in absence of Gawn or Viney.

  • POSTGAME: West Coast

    Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.

  • GAMEDAY: West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?

  • FEATURE: 1925

    ï»żA hundred years ago today, on 2 May 1925, Melbourne kicked off the new season with a 47 point victory over St Kilda to take top place on the VFL ladder after the opening round of the new season.  Top place was a relatively unknown position for the team then known as the “Fuchsias.” They had finished last in 1923 and rose by only one place in the following year although the final home and away round heralded a promise of things to come when they surprised the eventual premiers Essendon. That victory set the stage for more improvement and it came rapidly. In this series, I will tell the story of how the 1925 season unfolded for the Melbourne Football Club and how it made the VFL finals for the first time in a decade on the way to the ultimate triumph a year later.
