Langdon is a very very good player and is a great pickup. Kicked 2 goals as well one from a snap from 35 out and a set shot from 45 that went straight through . Nothing wrong with his kicking for goal.

Well done Dees this has been our best win for the year. Well done Goody you deserve a big mention you have the guy enjoying their fooball and are starting to believe again. 3 big wins in the last 3 game keep bringing it on Dees! .

Great to see him hit the scoreboard, hes good enough to do that regularly.

    We've beaten three depleted teams in a row

    Granted, we won and won well as we should have - which is better than losing

    But let's wait until we replicate this a few times against better sides before we get carried away

    He may not be amongst the best but Melksham deserves praise tonight.

    Blanketed their dangerous playmaker Maynard who's been in ripping form and kicked a few goals. Very effective tonight.

    That is an amazing  assessment of his game tonight. Knocking out Mihocek had nothing to do with his game tonight, other than it was a typical, hard VDB attempt to get the ball.

    See above. Ordinary comment Nev.

    Ok, so you rate his game tonight for his 50% efficiency and 0 tackles then?

    I am stunned he didn’t have a tackle, I am sure I saw him tackling. Will have to watch again and keep an eye on him. I didn’t think his disposal was 50% either but maybe I was just excited with the win and his possessions. I am not saying he is a star but rather what I said earlier, that on a wet day I would rather  have him over Hannan.

    Love our percentage. Been a while since it hasn’t been trash. Could come in handy.

    Gotta feel for Mihocek, ran back with the flight of the ball and of all the players that could have been coming at him it was the runaway train Vandenberg.

    Fair enough mate, can absolutely see where you're coming from there. Turned out Hannan was sick and not dropped in the end anyway.

    I love vB's intensity and agro, so don't think I don't like him as a player, I'd just like him to tidy up those costly errors.

    Anyways, just rapt with the win, and probably equally as rapt with the delivery inside 50!

    Beating Collingwood. The next best thing to winning the flag

    That forward 50 delivery has turned around in the last few weeks and is absolutely helping our scoring.

    Given we gave the cats a run for their money and could have just as easily pinched the Lions game, Im starting to think maybe the port game was the odd game out.

    Surely despite cwoods outs we did the business and have asserted our right in the 8.

    100%. Goody has done a great job there it seems. Plus, seeing players like Viney and Oliver going from rated as close to the worst for forward delivery to now hitting up targets makes me very excited about what we could potentially do.

    I had him in my best. Kicked a couple, tagged Maynard out of it and more than 400 metres gained. Was close to most effective player on ground.

    That was damn near perfect. 

    Dominated early and got the score on the board before the rain came, and answered quickly every time they goaled. 

    In a season of sometimes turgid footy, that was as watchable as it gets.

    • 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.

    • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

      After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

      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.
