    Great performance by our backline. May and Hibberd in particular were rock steady and Tomlinson looked at home in the absence of Petty.

    Kozzy has been threatening to tear a game apart like this since his first year. Unreal performance.

    .having not seen a second of this game did we wear our indigenous jumper seeing as we were in the Alice?

    No Oliver no worries. Will be a handy in next week.

    4 points that's all we need

    Why can’t Salem kick?

    He's lost his skills space jam style. Mongrel kicks and touched off the boot multiple times. May not much better

    Fair dinkum, it’s hard to please some people. Those who want to keep digging for negatives good luck to you, Mondays are always better with a win.

    No one said doing a repeat is easy, most should be happy we are at least giving ourselves a chance.

    Those thinking the win was average or not too impressive. Port were 7-3 coming the game. If they lose they are basically out of finals. They had only one injured player

    enjoy the win guys

    Just glad to get the win against a plucky Port without Clarry.

    Absolutely DZ. I prefer to think this is the kick start needed.

    We’re the worst 13-4 team! But a win is a win.

    Given there are only two 13-4 sides with just a few % points between them I would say we are equal best...

    How is levers shoulder?

    Didn’t want to raise his arm during the song to put it around May’s shoulder. So not good 

    Very brave to play on. I reckon he’ll be out next week. Hopefully only one week but who knows

    What a grinding win that was.

    Kossie, you are a little ripper. 3 Votes for you.

    Forward connection still a problem. Thank heavens for our backline.

    Melk.... your chase/rundown was something i didnt think you had in you.

    I'll take that.

    I liked it, too.

    Traditional today and thats the way it should be outside of the designated indigenous games.

    Solid win without Petty, with Lever injured and obviously without Oliver, considering Port can still make finals.

    The season is a grind at times and this game exemplified it.

    We werent much better last year at this point. Just grinding out wins - which is absolutely vital. It’s frustrating to watch when you know we have other gears. But at the end of day, regardless of how we win at this point, supporters should be happy. Top 4 is the aim. We have some big games coming up.

    • The Clayton Oliver Thread

      Melbourne have held talks with Clayton Oliver and they’ve laid out where he fits in under Steve King’s vision and been frank about expectations. Oliver is still under contract for five years, but the door is open if he wants to explore his options elsewhere.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

      It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

      The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

      The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.
