You gotta love these boys. When they are up for the fight the fight is ferocious.

I know a lot won’t agree but I thought we were really good for 85% of the game the week before. We are building nicely.

    Would love to hear from people at the game. How were we behind the ball? Looked like the set up was unreal. Did our forwards press up, or have they started to hang some one loose?

    Great Team win.

    Viney is a much better when he looks where he is hand-balling but had a great game.   

    Some concerns for me:

    Weid he just can’t find form in the seniors. I think he had 1k 1m and 1g. it’s a real worry tbh. 

    Jackson looks to be out of form big time. Could be playing with an injury but could also be his contract speculation playing on his mind. Didn’t see him in the team song either. 

    I would consider resting Jacko and bringing in Tomlinson as a forward and put Weid in the ruck with Maxy. It could help him find form.

    I knew we had that in us and at our best with that mongrel intensity no one can beat us.

    You watch us go from now on.

    Get around Port, GWS, Adelaide and Richmond (to beat Collingwood, Sydney, Carlton and Brisbane respectively).

    Let's see how many of last week's results we can reverse this week.

    6-0 interstate in the one season.

    Anyone else ever done that before?

    Certainly not Collingwood - they never travel 6 times.

    Jack Viney is our barometer, those stats are astronomical. 
     

    That should be the standard of pressure and contest for the whole team for the rest of the season, great win!!

    Jake Melksham continuing his surprise resurgence. Chased hard and provided a solid target on the lead. Probably should've finished with 2-3 goals 

    Liking his game at the moment. Adds a different element to our forward line.

    Pretty poor coverage with replays often taking precedence over live action, overlaid by commentary box prattle.

    Jackson rucked well and jumped over his opponent consistently - hope he sees that the Dees are the team to stick with Dockers are real pretenders

    • PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      With both sides precariously positioned ahead of the run home to the finals, only one team involved in Sunday’s clash at the Adelaide Oval between the Power and the Demons will remain a contender when it’s over.  On current form, that one team has to be Melbourne which narrowly missed out on defeating the competition’s power house Collingwood on King's Birthday and also recently overpowered both 2024 Grand Finalists. Conversely, Port Adelaide snapped out of a four-game losing streak with a win against the Giants in Canberra. Although they will be rejuvenated following that victory, their performances during that run of losses were sub par and resulted in some embarrassing blow out defeats.

    • 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.
