Petracca - surprisingly selfish game

Salem - took easy options

Brayshaw - a few moments 

Harmes - tough but loose

Jackson - continued disappointing season

Hibberd - was generally safe

Lever - steady all game

Jordon - was rarely effective 

Neal- Bullen - couldn’t get involved

Langdon - suffered from constriction 

Bedford - overwhelmed by occasion 

Bowey - didn’t handle pressure

Brown - poor second half

    Thought Pickett worked harder than most.

    He always works hard but rarely gets the bloody ball

    Three words 

    Beaten in clearances 

    No contested marking 

    Melted under pressure 

    Forwards must lift 

    totally missing Tmcd

    lost premiership favouritism 

    Harmesy stopped fending

    TMac so important.

    He may not kick goals always, but he bodies opponents, makes space and attracts one of their best backs.  Last year, Fritta and BBB benefited from TMac's presence alone.

    When the opposition knows they have our current midfield relatively covered, they do not perceive our forward line, as a stand alone unit, to be much of a threat.

    We need to understand this and our leaders have to rise to the challenge.

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.

    • GAMEDAY: West Coast

      It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?

    • FEATURE: 1925

      ï»żA hundred years ago today, on 2 May 1925, Melbourne kicked off the new season with a 47 point victory over St Kilda to take top place on the VFL ladder after the opening round of the new season.  Top place was a relatively unknown position for the team then known as the “Fuchsias.” They had finished last in 1923 and rose by only one place in the following year although the final home and away round heralded a promise of things to come when they surprised the eventual premiers Essendon. That victory set the stage for more improvement and it came rapidly. In this series, I will tell the story of how the 1925 season unfolded for the Melbourne Football Club and how it made the VFL finals for the first time in a decade on the way to the ultimate triumph a year later.
