Must have a good coach if we can still win when we are as terrible as the matchday thread would suggest.

    Demonland logic:

    Round 1 2020: 26 point loss in Perth = season over, we are terrible

    Round 1 2021: 22 point win at the G = season over, we are still terrible.

     

    Not perfect, but plenty of positives.

    Pretty much what I expected. An uninspiring win against a severely undermanned Freo. May and Lever will keep us in many contests this year.

    A Round 1 win is welcome but none of the other teams will be shaking in their boots watching that performance.

    Steven May and Jake Lever were incredible really. As good as I've ever seen from a defensive duo in our colours.

    Won that purely on talent rather than workrate.

    Clearances/stoppages and defensive running by mids still a massive issue.

    Lot to like about our next generation though, thought Jordon was great, Sparrow cracked in hard all day, Kozzy was a sparkplug, and Rivers and Jackson showed snippets.

    Lever sensational, as was his partner May. Great to see TMac find a patch of form too.

    ANB and Spargs leading the way for inside 50 delivery, but need their team mates to take notice.

    A front-running win.

    Got the job done. Will benefit from Viney, Weid, Ben Brown etc being back. Might expect Brayshaw to improve in the coming weeks given his impacted preseason.

    Spargo was good to see today. Jordon very solid debut.

    Lever has improved out of site. I was his biggest critic but he's really come on

    I think we’ll improve. The skills were poor but the intent was good. 
     

    Concerned about clearance after watching the Dogs and now Freo smashing us. Once a strength.....

    • The Clayton Oliver Thread

      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.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

      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.
