    Not sure who gave who what

    Trac 5/5 = 10

    Clarry 4/3 = 7

    Chandler 3/2 = 5

    Brayshaw 1/4 = 5

    Pickett 2/1 = 3

     

    I reckon Clarko gave Oliver 4. He basically killed the game in the first quarter. Made sure it was done and dusted. 
    Great to see Kade recognized too! 
     

    Bloody Trac is why Clarry won’t win a Brownlow by the way. And why Trac won’t win one either.  Rude 😂

     Let Carlton supporters salivate over Brownlows and Colemans. I'll take Premiership Cups and Norm Smiths any day of the week.

    If Dangerfield copped half as much as Oliver did RE his kicking it would be a miracle.

    I think we all understand that blokes who win the ball inside and bang it on the boot under pressure aren't hitting targets as much as a loose outsider.

    Because its Dangerfield. He will run the AFL one day. Everyone just loves to fawn all over him.

    Same way that they tell me how great Hawkins is, because he literally decapitates his opponent each week so he can take a mark, and the umpires let it happen.

    Imagine if Gawn could do half the [censored] Hawkins does... he would be taking 95 contested marks a game.

    Seriously, how do you “accidentally” break someone’s jaw with your motionless hand when handballing?

    Well @Jaded No More, you either don't know the meaning of "literally", you don't know the meaning of "decapitated" or you were exaggerating for comic effect.  My money's on the last of those options.

    Yes first votes this year for Brayshaw.  He’s had a moderate to quiet start to 2023. But he proved his quality this week.

    No coincidence that he played more midfield minutes and got votes. He’s wasted down back but I understand why he’s been down there.

    Was interesting that Sparrow, Jordon, Kozzie even Harmes when he came on spent more time in the midfield. Perhaps after quarter time they thought with a 10 goal lead it would be a perfect time to blood them? Even saw Tracc and Clarry dropping back to half back on occasions.

    Tough on Dangerfield..more people hate him than recognise how valuable   he is to his team.

    You need to grow up

    When Clarrie can produce a coherent sentence people will realise how good he is.

    I really think he did his best work across half back though. His intercepting work was a real weapon for us and complemented the intercept marking of Lever, Rivers, May.

    Most of his possessions were down back too, only a few in the middle.

    Where in my post did I say he was not a great footballer?

    I said he will run the AFL one day. He has a finger in every pie and the media love him. 
    Just because I find him and his club insufferable, doesn’t mean I don’t recognize what a great player he’s been over the journey.

    I think in general because the game was done within 8 minutes and the other defenders had their forwards covered, he was able to play a lot more loosely and run off and impact forward of the centre more than usual. 
    Had a great game as a result.

    Ha ha my bad..

    I read  that you wrote " ruin" rather than "run "!! 

    In my defence I was born in Geelong and other than the home ground advantage favouritism thing I still have a soft spot for them. 

    Last years premiership team was  "complete ", brilliantly prepared  and Selwood and Dangerfield firmly turned the game when required after half time.

    I hope Trac and Clarrie can become as precisely effective as  career partners. 

    I rather be playing the Cats for this year's flag than last year's.

    I detest Richmond who were the Club that stole MFC' s home ground advantage

    • 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.
