    Fantastic player. One of the best pick ups we have had in quite some time.

    A proper footy player works extremely hard and owns the wing at the G

    A most valuable player  looking forward to a great 2021

    A really strong 9/10.

    His disposal could improve and you always need to leave room for improvement.

    Shame he wasn't given the opportunity to cruise down the wings of the G much this year. 

    An absolute bargain for a second round pick. Another shrewd piece of business my Mahoney and co.

    A brilliant pick up whom we apparently targeted very early in 2019.

    Had a great season but he and the club would want more than a 2 goal 8 behind return.

    6th at the club for score involvements though so he's pivotal in setting up our forward 50 transition.

    His disposal and decision making improved as the year went on, he was a great pick up who will get better.

    Ed Langdon  a running machine. he has the stamina to go all day  and doesn't seem to tire out from one end to another. He is amongst  of our best pickups  IMO and had an excellent year  finishing in our top 5 in the B&F..

    Reminds me of the way Powell fitted in, really made a difference in a few line games, and John Henry style runner (will break his own heart) with his effort.

    If only we could get Jayden Hunt to emulate him. He has the pace to get open like Ed, the question now is if he's up to it. Would prefer him playing forward than back tho.

    Outstanding year. Everything we could hope for.

    Doesn't get sucked into the contests on the skinny side. Pivotal in stopping a lot of switch plays.

    Huge tank and endurance. Always provided an outlet on that wing. Iffy ball use but this improved as the year wore on. Keep working on his disposal and I’d like to see him add a few goals next year. Excellent pick-up.

    Really impressive first season at the club. Looks to have a very good attitude and hopefully has another couple of levels to lift his game further.

    • PREVIEW: North Melbourne

      Can you believe it? After a long period of years over which Melbourne has dominated in matches against North Melbourne, the Demons are looking down the barrel at two defeats at the hands of the Kangaroos in the same season. And if that eventuates, it will come hot on the heels of an identical result against the Gold Coast Suns. How have the might fallen? There is a slight difference in that North Melbourne are not yet in the same place as Gold Coast. Like Melbourne, they are currently situated in the lower half of the ladder and though they did achieve a significant upset when the teams met earlier in the season, their subsequent form has been equally unimpressive and inconsistent.

    • 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?

    • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      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.
