My 3 word player analysis V Carlton

in Melbourne Demons

Featured Replies

Gawn - willed to win

Viney - great first half

Salem - almost a liability 

Rivers - not always reliable 

Lever - held his opponent 

Petty - outstanding most game

Sparrow - was not sighted

May - strength and application 

Jordon - not moving freely 

Oliver - class and input 

Langdon - limited since injury

Brayshaw - prolific and courageous 

Fritsch - career worst game 

Neal-Bullen - was rarely sighted 

Spargo- another uninvolved performance 

Brown - saved by goal

Pickett - hero but limited

Petracca - not as dynamic 

Jackson - just a game

Hibberd - loose but important 

Melksham - only winning forward 

Hunt - great last quarter

    Which Salem were you watching?

    And the only thing Lever held with a blade of grass. He was shocking.

    We’ve looked a worse team this year since Salem has been back.

    I think the praise for Melk could be higher. It wasn’t just the 4 he kicked. He started to look like the player in 2018 who was so crucial in setting up our forward fifty forays.

    Wow - I watched another game as well -

    Salem - Fritsch both played well - the balance were competitive including Brown Spargo Langdon and most others you bagged - Watch the replay ! Slowly !,

    He also gave Kozzie the ball for the winning kick. He actually could have had 7. Missed 2 and was robbed of a mark late in the game 30 out.

    Fritsch played well.!! . No. No. No 
    4 disposals. 1 goal 1 kick (both from the down the field free kick on 1/2time). 3 handballs (I think two to Carlton players) 8 tackles but that’s because he was always second or behind or trying to chase. 

    I love Fritta and he always will be a star. But he was off tonight.

    Only Salem questionable, otherwise good job Joeboy.

    Disagree. Jackson 'just a game'?  A terrific game. Brayshaw...disposal is atrocious .

    Hunt- Instinct is best 

    His dare to break the lines was crucial late.

    I’d prefer eight goals and one tackle.

    Forwards are there to kick goals (something we struggle to do now) so the obsession with forward tackles for a player like Fritsch is weird to me.

    Our forward line has been hugely critiqued for a lack of forward pressure.

    Indeed, Fritta was off and didn't kick his usual handful of goals. Instead he knuckled down and applied plenty of pressure. Would love for him to kick a bag every week but he has shown improvements to his game when he can't manage to get involved on the scoreboard.

    Fritsch is an impact player like in the gf. when he gets on a run hard to stop but can go missing for the odd quarter

    • 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.
