    Job done, move on. 
    Still feel like we aren’t clicking and seem to lack some polish, plenty to work on. 
    Port next week will be a great test

    I hope Petty and Petracca are playing.

    Can't believe I'm going to have to watch Sparrow have 12 touches a week @ 28% efficiency for the next 8 years

    10 of those in the first half and then he just stopped.

    I can still remember 2014 when we lost to them by 50 points but it felt like we’d had a dip. More than happy to have the roles reversed. 
    Loved Trent Rivers’ game today. Vins is having an excellent season. 
    Not sure what Sparrow brings. 
    Go away Jason Dunstall. Sick of having him cheer against us.

    Really feel like petty not playing the second half had a bigger impact than I thought it would, doesn't help that the hawks actually decided to stop playing like a U-16 team for 10 mins

    Rivers was best on ground in terms of exceeding expectations but the Big 3 midfielders were just immense.

    Hibberd slaughtered Breust and May, Lewis. The backline was very good. Clearances remain an issue - can’t understand why given the personnel. Real shame that Petty was subbed out - was looking to be a turning point game for him as a forward. Love what Spargo brings.

    A solid win, but after a couple of soft kills we really need a challenge, bring on Port

    Bigger challenges to come. We bank the 4 points and move on.

    Last week was not a soft kill. We got lucky to win.

    A solid win for May's 200th over the horrible Hawks.  Gotta be happy with the result.

    Looks like BBB in for Petty next week

    Tracc 50/50

    That Sicily.... what a [censored] and i don't mean for the Tracc tackle either.  Some of his work off the ball when he feels he's out of the contest is school yard rubbish.

    If you offered me a ten goal win before the game I would have taken it.

    What happened to Trac?

    Rolled ankle.  Seemed unperturbed when interviewed post match.

    It felt like that was the game where Petty kicks a 3-5 goal haul and really gets his confidence up, started clunking them which was nice

    I'm watching back the Kayo coverage and Trac was interviewed and reckons he's fine but just caught in a tackle.

    Hopefully the physios can buff that out

    • The Clayton Oliver Thread

      Melbourne have held talks with Clayton Oliver and they’ve laid out where he fits in under Steve King’s vision and been frank about expectations. Oliver is still under contract for five years, but the door is open if he wants to explore his options elsewhere.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

      It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

      The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

      The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.
