Fritta! Trac still BOG for me, got us going.

Should have said 8 goals between Fritta and Brown, instead of 4 each.

    Well done Joel Smith. Played your role well

    Credit to the Crows they came to play but we got the win, kicked accurately for a change, no injuries and playing for the minor premiership next weekend

    Great time to be a Dees supporter

    Dare we dream.

    I'll take a 7 goal win anytime. The game was by no means pretty but I'm pleased that we controlled the game in the last quarter and didn't allow Adelaide to get back in it.

    The standouts were Langdon and Fritsch. They both had their best games for weeks. I also felt really confident when the ball went in Lever's direction. He's one of the best intercept markers in the competition.

    TOP OF THE LADDER, BABY!

    Field day for Fritter. Great to see better conversion from our forwards. It's a funny reversal of the last game we played against these guys. It's hilarious that our accuracy kept us in this one at the start.

    We're coming for the minor premiership!

    “Let’s drop Fritsch” from the game day thread. NFI.

    Would have called for a straighjacket if you'd suggested at quarter time that Fritsch would snag 7.

    The biggest upside today was Langdon, spargo and Fritta all back to their best.

    Great work from Trac, Petty and Jackson.

    Forge the the game I still can't get over Fritsch! When was the last time we had someone kick 7? 

    Hardly touched it in the first quarter, that was up there in Farmer 2000 vs Collingwood territory!

    That was a good win without Viney, May and Tmac. 
     

    We’ve definitely played better and some of our method was questionable at times but gee whiz we’d would’ve struggled without Fritsch.

    Loved that. Wasn’t pretty, but ticked all the boxes IMO. Kicked goals against the run of play in the first, weathered the challenge in the third and buried them when they put up the white flag in the last. Very content with that performance. Did what we had to.

    Bring on the minor premiership battle next week.

    Dropped marks. That’s what makes him elite, and we build the game around him down the line. He dropped 5-6 from memory and was very dirty on himself.

    That game felt exactly like a game where the result didn't matter. We didn't get out of second gear it felt like.

      The Demon stalwart surpassed the number of his father's appearances for the club towards the end of the season. As he approaches his thirties, his pace is inevitably slowing, and he is likely to explore alternative opportunities beyond the team's midfield.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #8 Jake Lever

      The Demon premiership defender who has the reputation the master of intercept possessions as well as great leadership qualities managed only eight senior games this season as he battled injury and form, prompting speculation that he might be enticed to look elsewhere.

      “Disco” took his time (four seasons) but the mid-season draftee has been a shining light of Melbourne's campaign, improving to become a versatile option at either end of the ground. He has great marking skills which allows him to play as a marking target up forward or an intercepting defender down back.

      The skipper delivered another outstanding season, leading the team from the front, participating in every game, and earning club champion honours, while also securing an equal record eighth All-Australian blazer as a ruckman.  Max Gawn is arguably the greatest exponent of ruck skills in the history of the game; an exceptional leader who has guided the club to a premiership, through the challenging times that followed, and now into the next phase of its storied history.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #12 Koltyn Tholstrup 

      It was a frustrating season for the former number 13 draft selection, who failed to build momentum in his second campaign; Tholstrup played only nine games, having been omitted twice and substituted out three times. However, he demonstrated promising signs in the midfield at Casey towards the end of the season, and big things are anticipated from him in the coming years.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #13 Clayton Oliver

      Clayton Oliver, a four-time best and fairest winner at the club, has navigated a challenging period over the past two years, marked by injuries and personal issues, but has demonstrated promising signs suggesting a return to his optimal form in 2025. He is presently contracted to the club for an additional five years, with a substantial annual salary of approximately $1.7 million in the final seasons of his agreement. All at Melbourne are eagerly anticipating his resurgence to his previous peak performance levels.
