Name a team that isn’t completely reliant on their two best players? It’s an odd thing to be annoyed about.

Yeo tackled him high, ended up on the ground beside him. Rolled on to him and held him down for a good fifteen seconds.

It was a fantastic goal but geez that should have been fifty but the umpires are too gutless to call it.

"Courageous" stuff there from the big-bodied WC mid.

Really struggles to get separation

Doesn't have a quick step or baulk, easy to predict him rounding onto the left

I suppose the heavy track doesn't help.

No way Kozzie milked that

As the ump said, it was a coat hanger. And yet Yeo not only deliberately and obviously retarded Kossie getting up, but kept shaking his head at the decision. Home ground Eagles know they can exert this kind of influence over the umpires, and it will ultimately work for them. If I was an umpire, that kind of stuff would sh** me blind. I just don’t understand how they’re so easily swayed.

Ridiculous comment.

He is a better option against Nic Nat. Goldstein, Nic Nat worry Max. Something Max has admitted.

Let’s see what happens to them now without Bruce. They have great midfield depth but no key position depth. Every team has their particular strengths.

Maybe have him 1 out in the goal square with BB 30 meters out.

Not reliant on bont and mcrae?

You're kidding aren't you?

 

our chance to go to the top of the ladder again and with a couple more wins, especially against Geelong, stay there. Players need to pull their finger out and get moving.

It’s disgraceful umpiring, but we know that’s 90% odds-on to happen over there, worth about 6 goals a game. The bigger question is why we’re slowing the game down at the wrong times. No run-past, no quick decision making to expose their lack of speed. They also beat us in contested ball that quarter. Don’t correct that, we don’t win, particularly not with their crowd umpire advantages. Simples. 

Ask James Jordon that question. Twice he slowed the game at half forward. Must be better

Come on Demons - show them you can will need to beat 25 of them.

Love to see the dogs without the Bont (don't even need to name another player, as that would be enough).

I would say that Jackson has done well tonight. I would let him have a solid run NicNat. He can outleap him now, just needs to make sure his taps hit the target. Will struggle body on body at the throw ins.

Max, Oliver and Tracc have to turn it on in the second half. 

Either we bring our pressure game now or goodnight. Umps will find a few more goals for Eagles as they always do. We need to win that contested ball and create scoring opportunities.

Weid would have been handy out there.

Coz his overhead marking recently has been superb?

Well for as bad as that quarter was where still in front. Need to lift big time. 

Can someone, anyone on Demonland who thinks we don't get a rough run from the umpires, please explain the free kick against Rivers.

That is the worst free kick in the last 15 years of footy. The explanation was an absolute joke and 100% incorrect 

We're getting belted by umpires.

 

Lots more players need to get involved and get the game back on our terms.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

    The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: Collingwood

    Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.

  • GAMEDAY: Collingwood

    It's Game Day and the Demons face a monumental task as they take on the top-of-the-table Magpies in one of the biggest games on the Dees calendar: the King's Birthday Big Freeze MND match. Can the Demons defy the odds and claim a massive scalp to keep their finals hopes alive?
