Congrats to May, Gawn, Clarry, and Trac. It was largely a very well picked AA team (Curnow in the forward pocket was a bit NQR though).

I just wish they'd pick wingers and actual captains as captains. 

Being a captain isn't a joke - you have to actually know what you're doing in the position. Kind of like every other position on the ground.

    Agree, it's an honour and a privelage to have that captaincy. They don't just give them out in Wheaties packages.

    Hawkins captain? He is not even the captain of his own team. Wtf? 
    This is a Geelong [censored] fest. Vomit. 

    That is such a joke.  He does not even deserve to be in the team.  His stats were boosted by cheap goals against north, west coast, and Essendon (4.0 per game).

    Against decent sides he was average at best. 16 goals from 8 games against finalists (2.0 per game).  Just as well they didn’t have our draw and play 11 games against top 8 teams.

    Yet rewarded with captaincy. Joke.

    Bailey Fritsch, best medium fwd in the game. Play a tall on him and he’ll beat them on the ground, play a mid/small on him and he’ll beat them in the air. 8th in the goal kicking playing in a team with the hardest draw in the competition. 
    Fritsch is a gun and hopefully a dual premiership player come the end of September.

    Charlie Curnow Carlton 64
    Tom Lynch Richmond 60

    Peter Wright Essendon 53
    Max King St Kilda 52
    Aaron Naughton Western Bulldogs 51
    Bayley Fritsch Melbourne 50
    Lance Franklin Sydney 50

    Dane Zorko probably eats his Wheat Bix dry.

    When they named Hawkins as Captain I just switched off the Telly. Give me a break. A Captain should be a leader of men. Hawkins is far from that.   Makes me sick.

    Gosh.  So many posters complaining so much about something that ultimately means so little.

    We're here to win back to back premierships.  The rest is just a sideshow.

    Other than Hawkins being named captain, it's actually a really decent side.  I'd have swapped Hawkins for Lynch but otherwise it's hard to see who didn't deserve to be in there.  Congratulations to Gawn who is clearly the best ruckman since Dean Cox. 6 AA's puts him in rare air.  Oliver will be there soon enough, and well done to Petracca and May on their achievements.

    True, but we Posters do not like imposters.

    • 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.
