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

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

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.

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: Friday 22nd November 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp. DEMONLAND'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS It’s going to be a scorcher today but I’m in the shade at Gosch’s Paddock ready to bring you some observations from the final session before the Preseason Training Camp next week.  Salem, Fritsch & Campbell are already on the track. Still no number on Campbell’s

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    2024 Player Reviews: #36 Kysaiah Pickett

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
