My one word analysis of the Pies game - PLEASING

PLEASING - To beat this mob anytime, any place any how.

PLEASING - To win three in a row is such convincing fashion.

PLEASING - to see Spargo snag a few with good positioning and movement. He also looks to have benefited physically from a good pre-season

PLEASING - to beat this team by 10 goals

PLEASING - to see a full 4 quarter performance from the team

PLEASING - to see a good even performance from the midfield.

PLEASING - to see Sparrow develop very well and look at home in a top class midfield

PLEASING - to watch Preuss' performance in the absence of Max

PLEASING PLEASING  PLEASING

 

One other PLEASING aspect to the broadcast of the game was the vision of the rest of the list's reaction to the win and the smiles and cheering from the race. they look like a happy mob.

Coaches votes are in:

Ed Langdon (MELB)
Clayton Oliver (MELB)
Angus Brayshaw (MELB)
Christian Petracca (MELB)
3  Steele Sidebottom (COLL)
3 Taylor Adams (COLL)
2 Charlie Spargo (MELB)
 
WOW.  Big difference in view of the coaches!  Best guess split:
5/1, 5/1, 4/2 for either Langdon/Oliver/Brayshaw
4 for Petracca
3 for Sidebottom
3 for Adams
2 for Spargo
Langdon, Oliver and Brayshaw the only ones to get votes from both coaches.  But coaches had a very different view on who was best or second best on the ground.  Or 3rd best or 4th best or 5th best...
 

That's as big a disparity as we have seen I suspect

 

 

Watching just the highlights and I'm embarrassed by the favouritism we received from the umpires. It's not the first time I've said that vs. Collingwood. Strange. But I don't know how you could live with yourself being a West Coast fan. Also Spargo everywhere. 

Watching the actual replay and Lockhart has a long way to go still. Love his endeavour but he was out-positioned or -manoeuvred on multiple occasions and cost us in my opinion at least half the Pies' goals. Still happy for him to stay there. Or get Rivers in.

I liked this too, kudos to the broadcast for that.

I think that was also Gary Pert in with the players at the end of the game.

Good look that he was not with the corporates.

Showing his support to the team. Emotionally Intelligent, well done, especially after his spray.

Agree. So often It's the exact opposite.

Langdon was good but I certainly didnt think that good. Oliver has being awesome with his disposal the last 3 games. Now playing very clever footy. Gus has done a 360 and showing what we hoped he would. Definately found his calling in the middle. Trac going from strength to strength. Midfield is back to being rightly feared. Spargo puts in 110%.

Langdon is now consisently very good because he is using his tank to burn off opponents and becomes a sole target and/or outlet player.  It looks like he's doing it easy but its not his fault his opponentn can't keep with him.

One of my favourite players now.

Couldn't agree more 17

The number of times this year he has been on his own, screaming for the ball, has been amazing. He seems to, until recently,to have been largely ignored by the midfielders

He made a huge difference to our connectivness and cohesiveness.

Brtlett was the one who gave the spray not Pert. Was good to see him there tho I agree, was sitting on the bench during the game as well, nice to see him get a win against his old mob.

He's 24 and played 79 games!!!! His best years are ahead and hopefully all going to be at the Dees!

Keep it in mind he did it against Philips I think who has been an outstanding wingman for a few years.

    Melbourne have held talks with Clayton Oliver and they’ve laid out where he fits in under Steve King’s vision and been frank about expectations. Oliver is still under contract for five years, but the door is open if he wants to explore his options elsewhere.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

    It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

    The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

    The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.
