    Petty was actually pretty good.Ā

    Brayshawā€™s kicking is consistently letting us down no matter how good his intercept game is.

    Gus can be very casual with some of his kicks. Especially when heā€™s on his left.Ā

    Watching the game today, I said to my wife Petty will be a superstar for our club. He will never really be recognised as such outside the club I suspect, but he will be a 250 gamer for the Dee's.

    A bit hard on Petty, Weed and Spargo.

    Petty - timely intercept marks

    Weed - tried heart out

    Spargo - played his role

    Couldn't agree more. Probably on 180k if he's lucky and does more than a serviceable job.

    Both Weid and Mitch battled hard. They played their roles perfectly.

    Weā€™ve all called it. Petty was good all night. The number of contests he impacted didnā€™t get on the stats. Ā He must have had 7-8 spoils in crucial contests. Ā And his marking is one grab. Ā Three words for Petty ā€œAnother solid contributionā€. Ā

    Agree about Petty. He is an absolute gun.

    I thought Ben Brown was terrible. His first goal was a gift ... the result of a dropped (uncontested) mark by a Crows defender (Murray). His only other goal was in junk time. His inability to impact on contests is a problem ... he either fails to get to the contest, or 'attacks' the ball meekly with one hand. He was great last year, but his form this year is worrying.Ā 

    Weid did what Weid does. Shame he can't 'clunk' marks.Ā 

    M. Brown was passable. He did better than his namesake.Ā 

    Hibbo ... mixed bag. Did some good things, but got outmarked twice which cost 2 goals. Overall an OK game.

    Bedford ... until he kicked his goal ... didn't know he was playing!!

    Kozzy ... rarely sighted.Ā

    That's just not true, his kicking has been excellent this season and a real improvement in his game. Did have some misses yesterday but on the whole very good.

    I think sometimes you need to look past your confirmation bias of past seasons.

    • 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 Ā consecutive defeats.Ā

    • 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.
