Seston and Jefferson really impressed me that quarter. 

Luke Dunstan has to be under serious consideration for next week surely??

I know we got belted at the contest last night but I struggle to think a team with Oliver, Petracca and Viney need another grunt player. I’d go either Brayshaw on ball and/or JJ wing/on ball and roll the wingers through the forward flanks more. Laurie hff an option too.

Dunstan remains almost purely Oliver and Viney insurance to me.

Jefferson might be years away from afl footy but boy he can run and jump at the ball. When he and JVR combine its exciting.

    Dunstan gets a lot of it but his kicking is terrible as soon as any pressure is applied to him. Would rather someone else replace Harmes against Swans

    Both Schache and JVR look confident and getting plenty of touches. Howes as well

    Big Bell the ruckman looks like he's worth keeping an eye on

    I agree. I haven’t seen anything from Dunstan at VFL or AFL since he’s been a Demon to suggest he is anymore than a good VFL player any more. I’d be getting games into Laurie, JJ, Taj (when fit), and maybe Howes, D. Smith and Moniz before recalling Dunstan.

    Why the hell are we allowing a FB to run the ball 25 meters out of the square without bouncing?

    What’s going on with Will Verral?

    Just a guess but they might have the young talls on 15 game contracts and rotate them. They all have a heap of work to do on their bodies and don’t need to play 20+ games 

    Not sure if they got KFW linked with a lower level. Or if he needs it

    Where’s Shache?

    Was about to ask that?  Copped a knee in the head late in Q3 so hopefully not concussed.

    Jordan way too slow there with the shot on goal.  Interception by Sestan who walks it in for the sealer

    So JVR doing enough in the ruck to take Gawn's spot? Or TMac's spot?

    Maybe... T Mac but I expect not

    JVR having a good last quarter... not doing his chances any harm

    Gosh if that commentator barracks any harder for the Dogs he'll blow a woofer valve.

    2 solid intercept marks at HB by JVR

    JVR has been in the ruck most the quarter I think. He may be the only option, not sure, or it could be his audition for next week.

    So many shots from the Dogs have been from the boundary.

    Casey's done well to force them out wide for a fair chunk of the game

    • 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.
