We dropped by one point then into the breeze. A pretty good quarter.

Just listened to Zanker being interviewed then at the end of the half. Geez she was stuffed and really struggling for breath. I'm wondering if the spicy cough has got her a bit this year. She is such a good player for us and has been out of sorts all year.

    Kate Hore needs to realise the pressure has gone way up this year and take first options. She consistently burns team mates 

    How do you rate Paxman’s first half?

    North really lifted their intensity that quarter.

    We're 17 points up but I'm worried we might drop this.

    I think it will be very close.

    Gotta love him. He can't help but talk about the Dees almost exclusively.

    Can’t see them pulling back 17 points in last, close maybe but am expecting us to win

    they're throwing everything at us and we're holding on

    About 15 inside 50s to North to one for us in the last quarter and we only conceded one goal. Great defensive effort.

    Great win Dees

    She’s been excellent since Mick came to his senses and moved her to the wing at half time last week. New lease of life

    Yes! Very important win.

    Some great coaching moves tonight,  Shelley Heath completely blanketed Kearney. And I like Maddie Gays move to a half back role.

    gillard is a ripper as a tall defender

    I like her game. Reads it very well, punches, uses her height advantage. She’s doing an incredibly job as an 18 year old who was barely eligible for the draft

    • PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      With both sides precariously positioned ahead of the run home to the finals, only one team involved in Sunday’s clash at the Adelaide Oval between the Power and the Demons will remain a contender when it’s over.  On current form, that one team has to be Melbourne which narrowly missed out on defeating the competition’s power house Collingwood on King's Birthday and also recently overpowered both 2024 Grand Finalists. Conversely, Port Adelaide snapped out of a four-game losing streak with a win against the Giants in Canberra. Although they will be rejuvenated following that victory, their performances during that run of losses were sub par and resulted in some embarrassing blow out defeats.

    • 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.

    • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

      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.
