Time to get Jordan Lewis into the coaching role.

Made one really bad mistake, but other than that was ok

Thanks Joeboy.  I look forward to this each week.

Agreed. Great 66 word game summary.

I didn't think he was at his worst, but there were a couple of turnovers that didn't help - the no look handpass to Grundy for the goal wasn't great but nor did he drop his head either. Our backline is just looking really solid right now.

Would love that.

Wouldn’t listen to Garry Lyon to much, we have to win by over a hundred points for him to give us any credit

Agree.  Lever was average. Good spoils. One good mark. One missed tackle.  Two bad turnovers that cost goals.   Had a good last 3 weeks but today was “not his best”

I agree with all except Jones.  He had a good game.  Effective with the footy.  Tackled hard.  Noble and Daicos won’t be saying he is slow.  

Yeah I liked them all but I thought Jones made some real important contributions at times.

Jones is not slow just old, he has never been slow, it's a known fact every demon player is 29% slower then the average AFL player.


Brayshaw - works effectively attacking

Salem - possessions more favourable

Langdon - keeps getting better

Petracca - much improvement left

Oliver - same as traktor

May - heart in mouth

Fritsch - 'looks' very good

Viney - same as usual

Hibberd - never sure what

Preuss - market value doubled

Melksham - better than Hannon???

Lockhart - continues to impress

vandenBerg - very courageous player

Jones - 8 to go

Weideman  - structurally important now

Harmes - just not sure

Spargo - continues to surprise

Tomlinson - goodness gracious me

Sparrow - 27 . . . good get

McDonald - market value halving

Lever - some big questions

Pickett - please don't drop

MFC - Nice century score.

Weid - Kick to me.

Preuss - No more lumbering.

TMac - One good goal.

Pickett - Busy little bee.

Trac - Watch my goal.

Vanders - Watch out boys.

Gus - Seen the light.

Spargo - Wind him up. (And watch him go).

Oliver - Hitting the targets.

Jones - years best game

Harmes - is really struggling

Lever - Had a shocker.

Only one to have a shocker mind you.

Expectations give him a key role on the backline, demanding a larger territory in which to intercept and dispose of the ball. He is not as strong in such roles; he needs to start off in the back pocket/half back flank area where the range of the roaming role is more constrained; thus, his interceptions and run-on to play (as a play maker) can be done without interim periods of exhaustion or late arrival,  getting to the contest and/or reading the play as a more defenders concentrate at the location of the incoming ball. Ping! He's there, he's got the ball, he has disposed of the ball, he is reading ongoing play as he returns back to his 'nest'. Reduce the area of responsibility, increase the effectiveness of his disposal and his chipping-in to the turnover. 

Tomlinson reminds me of a Neeld-era player. Can't see it.

  • PODCAST: 2026 Season Preview

    The boys previewed the 2026 Season sharing their early impressions of the new coach, the new players, observations from preseason training, and what they've made of the new game style. They also look ahead to the season with their predictions, the players they expect to rise, their expectations for the team, and what they see as a realistic pass mark for Melbourne in 2026.

  • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

    When the Demons blew their 46-point lead at Marvel Stadium in Round 20 last year, the fallout was enormous. Like an event straight out of a Shakespearean tragedy, Melbourne’s final-quarter collapse left fans reeling and the club grappling with the aftermath.

  • PREGAME: St. Kilda

    With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

  • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

    Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

  • REPORT: Richmond

    Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.
