ANB is only behind Petracca for score involvements for us.... this one hurts big time he's not easily replaceable

Top 5 (on averages) here are....

1.  Tracc 8.7

2.  Clarry 7.5

3.  ANB (equal third with Dunstan but of course Dunstan's isn't an average) 7.0

4.  Your nickname sake BB 6.3  ; and

5.  Fritta with 5.5

Harmes is just behind Fritta on 5.3

If Dunstan fires up with a similar output to last week i reckon we are well covered here

1st for tackles.
1st for goal assists.
5th for frees against (behind Gawn, Pickett, Oliver and Joel Smith - and equal with Lever).

Baffles me people still try to put ANB down.

It betrays one’s knowledge of football.

 

ANB hurts most I reckon

That run is hard to replace and has been critical to our game plan

And the hitting targets when getting on the end is immense

If Nibbler was training today then I expect there'll be more outs tomorrow unfortunately..


Interesting that Melksham was brought in from outside the four emergencies announced yesterday.

I wonder if one of the four emergencies got it as well as ANB, and Melksham was brought in.

So atm more than a third of the flag team out. Wow, a win tomorrow would be special.

Good stats, but his skill execution and overall performance has dipped this year after a stellar 2021.

At this rate we’re going to have players play tomorrow and then test positive early next week and miss St Kilda.

I’ll be super impressed if we can win the next two.

Perhaps stop doing RATs until postgame from now??

That risks next week against St Kilda… odd few weeks coming up I think

Wondering if we would have been better fared bringing in Baker to cover ANB's role instead of Melk??  Although Melk is probably better at that kick coming inside .... oh well.

From memory Melksham played the Hawthorn game early last year and was looking very dangerous

He and Langdon kicked 3 in the earlier Hawthorn game last year.

Technically both are permitted to play.

Can someone explain to me when are they gonna get rid of all these H&S stuff? Surely with player triple or even 4th jabbed and most of them already caught the disease it's just around the corner.

I worry multiple games missed, like the flu this disease can present again throughout the year.

What difference does it make? He has COVID after he most likely developed symptoms this arvo.

What is becoming increasingly clearer though is that RATs and daily testing using RATs are pointless. The club could have easily avoided an outbreak had the AFL employed PCR testing as the preferred method of testing. 
understand it’s a bit more logistically challenging, and more expensive but in our case would have probably avoided this mess.

He's had one fumbly game where his pressure and running was still elite.

Just provided stats to you to show he's having a big impact this year.

Seems you're just biased.

Sad but true, the more the odds are stacking against us, the more comfortable I feel. 57 years of underdog status is hard to shake. 
Go Dees.

Day after Queens bday. Someone in the team needs to host a COVID party and bolster immunity for the remainder of the season. 
 

There is a 10 day break.

Makes you wonder if any other VIC clubs are going to cop it in the neck like we have.

Apparently Collingwood’s entire squad (or most of it) had it in the off season. Wonder if they’ll cop a second round of it?

  • 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.

  • 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?
