Thought Harmes was OK too.


Sorry cannot accpet Pickett (even though I like him). He must start getting game sense (lack of awareness has cost us the last two weeks)

So sad and farewell 2022 

6-Trac - battled through pain. Clearly our best. On one leg and he’s still a star. 

5-Clarry - scragged and gouged all night. Battled and tackled (12 tackles) and showed he’s a warrior 

4-Petty - battled all night and saved 3 certain goals. Great effort. Great year. 

3-Harmes 👍🏻- better. Clean disposal. One grab footy. 

2-Langdon 👍🏻- ran and ran and ran and kicked and was again in the best 

1- ANB. Ok. Just gets a vote due to his 1st half. But generally disappeared after 1/2 time. Runs into trouble. At least got two good goals. 

 

Kozzzy ok - good 1st half but his miss in the 4th (in the goalsquare… No lions ) was unforgivable 

Hibbo Ok - battled and generally beat Cameron 

May - ok. Beaten but battling on. Hipwood showed his athletic ability and perhaps batter without competing with Daniher. 

Brayshaw ok - tagged Neale(why?) but generally looked tired. Good goal in 4th. 

Hunt - ok. Nothing terrible but nothing enlightening. Did his job. 

Fritsch - ok had a great year but had two costly turnovers. Two goals but was a little off tonight.

💩Salem -just looked slow. Was he even fit. Disposal not sharp at all. Kicks to the clouds not direct. Disappointed. 

🤯Viney - ouch - had to say, heart of a lion and tackles all night but too often took wrong decision. Missed goal chance in 3rd quarter was costly. 

🤯Gawn - start of ‘22, mentioned at best in the comp. But he looked tired. Hitouts to no one. Better with a big punch. Tapped it mostly to Neale and Zorko in 2nd half. 

🤯Lever - good discipline in defence so then why???? A goal down and gives up an obvious 50. Why?? Arrogance ?? 

The spuds 

-1🥶Melksham- one good play then disappears. Wtf. Very disappointing. 

-2🥔Ben Brown - unable to mark and lead. Is he fit or strong enough. Dropped countless marks. 

-3🥔Jackson - omg. Fumbles all the time. So many dropped marks. Handballing to other players under pressure. Shines in 2-3 passages then nothing. Ummm. So disappointing.  

-4🥔Spargo - smart but essentially physically too weak. Tackled too easily. 

-5🥔Rivers - ran into trouble and panicked and fumbled. Costly mistakes. 

-6🥔 Sparrow - terrible all night. Missed goals. Missed opportunities. Cost us. Dumb tackles. Career worst game by far.

Referring to our players as 'spuds' says more about you than it does the players.

Excellent and accurate summary.

As bad as Sparrow was last night, his career worst games was the Queens Bday game in Sydney last year.

Easy to pick on individuals isn’t it?

Posted whilst angry, disappointed, frustrated etc etc. Feel like for all the years we’ve been downtrodden, our team is really good and could’ve won it again. Really disappointed in the decisions made by several repeat offenders. I know they’re not spuds.  
 

Btw there was some positives in the star ️ ratings.

Learn from it and don’t do it, seriously it’s absolutely cringeworthy (not just directed at you) to read posts clearly made solely based on emotion and frustration

It is sort of funny how one food is offensive but another is endearing!

6 Petty

5 Oliver

4 ANB

3 Langdon

2 Harmes

1 Petracca

Honorable mentions to: T Mac, Joel Smith, Bedford - who would have played great games had Sparrow, Jackson and Rivers been dropped as many on here called for.

6 - Tracc - hampered but tough and skilled, goal kicking has fallen away

5 - Harmes - provided the link option and one of few who can mark one on one

4 - Petty - saved us time and time again what an asset he is

3 - Langdon - tried his heart out but disposal a bit off tonight

2 - Clayton - Umpires enemy got no protection is a tough champion

1 - ANB for a good 1st half - needs to back himself more

After half time we couldn’t buy a mark or kick a clean goal, they were slotting them from 50, perfect playing conditions in front of 62,000 mainly MFC and couldn’t get it done. Vey sad second half at the G last night.

as good as petty was, he was regularly beaten on the lead and his man was the leading goalscorer

  • 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.
