Have you ever seen a better performance from a Full Back? Maybe a handful of Scarlett games.

Beats his opponent and wins the footy and rebounds 

5 Lever - great marks  and spoils and smart tonight

4 Petracca - his goals were the difference. Gd looked cooked and out of sorts but willed himself on 

3 Langdon- run and run and run and wins the footy, an excellent game 

2 Rivers - showed maturity beyond his years, smart and composed and quick and skilled 

1 Salem - important possessions and good run, he is very important 

apologies to Weid Clarry, Maxy and Hibbo until injured.

Apologies to Rivers.  That second half was a beauty from the 5th game rookie.

Good games from Wagner and Hibbo (until injured).   


6. Oscar (by a fair margin)

5. OMac

4. Oscar McDonald

3. May (but only coz Oscar was there to make him look good)

2. TMac for being the brother who got us OMac

1. The rest of the team can share this point (for all being aboard the OMac train)

Oliver and Viney unlucky not to get votes from me. Viney did a great job on steele after half time and Oliver was a bull at the stoppages all day long. Richard Wagner was actually fairly good on return after being a bit fumbly early.

Somewhat surprised that the Weid is so far down the list.  Is one of the form forwards of the comp and his contribution to team structure has been very important to us.  Perhaps another case of awards voting not being a true reflection of player value.

He’s averaging around two goals a game but every week he’s more or less at that average and he’s also having a lot of games where he’s out of the action for periods which isn’t conducive to getting the big voting scores.

6. May

5. Petracca

4. Langdon (great either end of the ground)

3. Salem (composed game)

2. Gawn (back line intercept marks)

1. Viney (for his tag on Steele)

 

The whole back line played well, OMac, Lever, Hibberd, Rivers, even Jones.

I also thought that Spargo, Melky, Brown and Weid, all had important touches or moments. Pickett will be fantastic, creates uncertainty for the opposition. 

That last half of football was the most intense and strong willed from Melbourne that I can remember.  Not greatly skilled perhaps but what a game, and we won a close one....

 

Go Dees

  • REPORT: Richmond

    The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourne’s Anzac Day Eve clash against Richmond would have been disappointed if they turned up to see a great spectacle. As much as this was a night for the 71,635 in attendance to commemorate heroes of the nation’s past wars, it was also a time for the Melbourne Football Club to consolidate upon its first win after a horrific start to the 2025 season. On this basis, despite the fact that it was an uninspiring and dour struggle for most of its 100 minutes, the night will be one for the fans to remember. They certainly got value out of the pre match activity honouring those who fought for their country. The MCG and the lights of the city as backdrop was made for nights such as these and, in my view, we received a more inspirational ceremony of Anzac culture than others both here and elsewhere around the country.

  • CASEY: Richmond

    The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.

    The Demons hit the road in Round 8, heading to Perth to face the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium. With momentum building, the Dees will be aiming for a third straight victory to keep their season revival on course. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: Richmond

    After five consecutive defeats, the Demons have now notched up back-to-back victories, comfortably accounting for the Tigers in the traditional ANZAC Eve clash. They surged to a commanding 44-point lead early in the final quarter before easing off the pedal, resting skipper Max Gawn and conceding the last four goals of the game to close out a solid 20-point win.
