Gawn - uncharacteristically quiet game 

Hibberd - finally got going

May - not his best

Tomlinson - a sad story

Lever - great second half

Salem - cool under pressure 

Rivers - loose but energetic 

Baker - little to commend 

Langdon - kept on giving

Petracca - no votes today

Oliver - better second half

Fritsch - our most important 

McDonald - important in defence

Spargo - great with ball

Pickett - genius at work

Brown - a limited debut

Jackson - enjoyed more responsibility 

Jones - composed when required 

Hunt - was rarely sighted 

Neal-Bullen - had little involvement 

Jordon - calm and tough

Melksham - selfish and limited

Very harsh on Baker, I thought his effort in the second half was commendable, especially in neutralising that 2 on 1 contest out on the wing. Needs to improve his disposal though.

He was everything wrong with Melbourne in the first half. Couldn't hit a kick, tried to do something and turned it over. Didn't feel like he had an opponent.

Sets a pretty high standard does Steven! 25 touches, 14 marks, 550 metres gained!

AnB probably has a pretty big vault of bad games, but that was one of his worst in a long time.

probably the only unforced changed for one of chandler/bedford

baker was serviceable, actually competed and got to the right spots but cannot hit a chest with his kicks they just float and loop didnt give the target an advantage after theyd done the hard work getting front spot on their man

Really shoudn't considering Salem was invisible until 2nd half, May was beaten in the air by a kid consistenly and Lever was fumbly until we took control.

Rivers* locked down Stephenson really well.

Unbelievably negative comments per se. 

Came off an incredible win against the Tigers, played on a ground some have never seen. 

A hard fought win, great second half, top of the ladder, yet so much negativity. 

Really don’t know how supporters can be so critical. 

Feel happy and positive , please.

Yeah. Spot on. Pathetic whining. Also disrespecting North, who were beaten by the same margin by Geelong 2 weeks ago - at Geelong.

I'd feel a lot better if Tomlinson and Viney weren't injured...

Not to mention how often since 1964 Melbourne dropped these games, not to mention how we have hardly won in Hobart.

In the meantime, in the Twos are two beauties with enormous potential - Chandler and Bedford - and Uncle Nev is playing great football.

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date.

    BEST OF THE REST by Meggs

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9. A huge achievement in what was a dominant season by North. For Melbourne fans, the season was unfortunately one of frustration and disappointment
