Gawn - involved too late

Viney - disappeared second half

Petracca - career worst game

Oliver - amazing first half

Brayshaw - tried but unsuccessful

Jordon - kept at it

Pickett - only dangerous forward

Jackson - another poor game 

Spargo - had little involvement 

Lever - overwhelmed and irrelevant 

Neal-Bullen- some minor touches

Sparrow - had no influence 

Bedford - 5 minute game

Dunstan - instilled no confidence 

Fritsch - 5 minute game

Rivers - loose and wayward

Hunt - was embarrassingly amateurish 

Weidemann - never looked likely

Brown - was thoroughly destroyed 

Petty - tried but limited

Melksham - goodbye and farewell 

May - still our best

    Harsh.

    In the first half he was the number one reason we dominated. Was a class above all our other midfielders and took it right up to the Fremantle midfield almost on his own.

    Second half he was tagged relentlessly by Aish and couldn't break the tag. In part because Petracca wasn't there to help out.

    Trac - clearly not 100% (he looked slow, almost disinterested in some contests). Definitely not 100%

    Christian was really sick yesterday. Couldn’t  even do a very simple favour asked by his management team.  Can’t believe he played today.

    And that's how he looked. Played deep forward for most of the last quarter.

    Disagree. He pushed the game but was unlucky to find opposition players when he cleared the ball. Oliver was becoming a problem for Freo but for some reason we benched him, and for 10 minutes. By then Freo had halted momentum. It was one of the most baffling coaching decision I have ever seen. I said to my old man “Oliver is pushing the play if we drag him Freo will take control”.

    I recon Longmire can coach. But yesterday's performance was beyond genius.

    Wow wee. There are dozens of accumulators in the comp on 800K, but rest assured Clayton isn't one of them. I can't remember one cheap possession yesterday.

    Agree ,Clayton Oliver earnt every possesion yesterday. If you want to see a freewheeling accumulator that gets cheap possesions, look no further than the bloke at Essendon who we didnt take. Thank God Clarry is not like him !

    Interesting that he was sick the day before.

    Maybe he woke up yesterday morning feeling better, put his hand up to play, but realised mid-game he didn't have the energy?

    If it's just how he's feeling, I imagine it would have been hard for Goodwin to overrule him if he's declaring himself over his sickness.

    • REPORT: Adelaide

      The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.

    • CASEY: Coburg

      The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

    • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

      After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
