Gawn - surprisingly didn’t dominate 

McDonald - a consistent target

Oliver - prolific, sometimes wasteful 

Langdon - seemingly without passion

May - thank God 1

Lever - thank God 2

Petracca - skills slightly off

Harmes - plenty of grunt

Jordan - impressive first half

Brayshaw - needed the run

Spargo - some important touches

Tomlinson - steady and reliable 

Salem - excellent first half

Fritsch - only some cameos 

Sparrow - was rarely sighted

Jones - played his part

Neal-Bullen - just a game

Pickett - always looked dangerous 

Jackson - will be better

Rivers - was rarely noticed

Hunt - was rarely noticed

Jetta - some important interceptions

This confuses me. Langdon played well. Ran hard all day. Is a lone wingman out there but provided good linkage and tackled well. Not the most dazzling performance of his career, but certainly a good game.

Not bad. My thoughts:

Gawn - Couldn't impose self

McDonald - Sporadic yet reliable 

Oliver - Quantity not quality

Langdon - Had some presence

May - God among boys

Lever - Back to best

Petracca - Wasteful beyond first

Harmes - In and out

Jordan - Rising star nom

Brayshaw - did he play?

Spargo - Demonlands most underrated

Tomlinson - Club best game

Salem - Too easily beaten

Fritsch - Flash in pan

Sparrow - Not his day

Jones - Closer to milestone

Neal-Bullen - just a game

Pickett - Cyril Rioli like

Jackson - Present yet wasteful

Rivers - Has some flashes

Hunt - Not quite there

Jetta - Played solid role

Rivers: many costly mistakes

I would say this..after a really promising debut season.

Rivers - 2nd year blues

I hope he can shake them

Ha, i was tempted to say that. But it’s just one game. Let’s hope it doesn’t turn out to be the dreaded second year blues.

I’d prefer if he played the team role rather than racking up the stats.

I'm comfortable with your analysis of every player apart from the above.

This guy is the Energiser bunny - runs hard all day.

Yeah, I was shocked that his disposal efficiency was 80%. I wouldn't have had him in my top 10 on the field.

I actually thought Brayshaw was ok. He laid some big tackles in the last qtr (including one on Fyfe) and did some nice composed kicks that led to scoring opportunities. He’ll be even better next week.

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
