Fritsch unlucky. Had put together back to back excellent seasons. Will hopefully have another premiership medallion to make up for it

    Don't forget that pause for dramatic effect. Like a blues guitarist holding that note just a bit longer!

    Not watching this [censored] any longer. Hawkins as captain = straw that broke the camel’s back

    "So tom, you're captain of the All Australian team!"

    "I thank everyone at the Geelong footy club!!!"

    If they want to award it like this, change the title from Captain to 'Bloke that's been round for a while and we want to recognise'. Worse than when they made Buddy captain

    Only one of two explanations 

    Rigged or complete idiots that hate Max Gawn are making the decisions

    For the historians, are AA captains just always guys who have been around a while?

    If so, I get it, but again I'd prefer picking a team with Pendlebury in as the AA captain, and Lingers and McLuggage as the wingers.

    Basically, which team would beat the US All Stars if they played AFL?

    J Brown has backed up his appalling attitude to Zorko’s sledge with an inarticulate Bogan-like performance tonight. FMD there must be someone better out there than him.

    Hawkins as captain completely devalues the notion of AA captain. It 100% should be Maxy

    Hawkins captain? Ya mad?

    Equally as bad as when they gave it to Rance. AA captain is often a selectors favourite/lifetime achievement  award

    Absolute stitch-up. The good news is we play better when challenged rather than receiving pats on the back. 

    A few stolen awards tonight, only assists our finals campaign

    Great stat!

    Batting at a roughly 50% punchable face ratio though, which makes me fear for Max's reputation amongst fans of other clubs!

    Also, Gawn has equal or more premierships than all but Carey on that list #sorrydanger

    • 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.

      Round 14 is upon us and there's plenty at stake across the rest of the competition. As Melbourne heads to Adelaide, it's time to turn our attention to the other matches of the Round. Which teams are you tipping this week? And which results would be most favourable for the Demons’ finals tilt?

    • 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.
