    Perry’s looking more comfortable this week and is strong overhead.

    Jordan is playing with confidence and has had some good run and carry plays.

    Viney is getting the attention usually reserved for Clarry and Trac.

    May and Lever very strong.

    Brown providing a strong option but needs to dig a litter deeper to cover stkilda’s defensive switch.

    Langdon running into some form.

    Melksham is dynamic and will hold his spot in the team.

    I didn't go tonight either. I go every week, pay $1000 in memberships, sort of didn't feel like paying more to go to to a concrete jungle and get home by midnight again.

    Yep same. Time slot is brutal. Especially living outside Melbs. Sometimes I do miss the all-Saturday arvo fixture.

    Not at the game.

    Can anyone explain why we're trying to switch the ball so much tonight?

    I would expect it's because running it down a wing with 50 handballs allows the opposition to flood into our forward 50 and clog it up so it rebounds out or we try and kick snaps in a congested forward line.

    We're switching but doing it very deep and slowly (Barry white style baby uhuh).

    Might want to take on the corridor a bit more aggressively.

    Not at the game either,. 😜

    Brayshaw an absolute butcher -  44% efficiency and turns it we in terrible spots -  some of it is just careless -  needs to lift intensity.

    Max and Kozzy a mile off.

    Even just a genuine effort would be more than what he’s done so far. Doesn’t look like he’s trying tonight.

    Do we have a nickname for Taj? (Where “Taj” could be akin to Steve for Steve Irwin - another Australian legend)

    Selection of Spargo and Melksham has been much criticized. Both are doing far better than the much-vaunted Kozzie.  It's baffling and frustrating because we all know how dynamic Kozzie can be.

    He's had 1 touch tonight and had had a poor season to date

    But for whatever reason, we'd rather express our ire towards players who are in the thick of things and who are constantly under pressure with their disposals

    At least they are getting the damn ball and not hanging out the back ... spectating

    How far is he allowed to run? 
     

    so many umpire errors. 

    What they pay and let go is so random

    • 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.

    • GAMEDAY: Collingwood

      It's Game Day and the Demons face a monumental task as they take on the top-of-the-table Magpies in one of the biggest games on the Dees calendar: the King's Birthday Big Freeze MND match. Can the Demons defy the odds and claim a massive scalp to keep their finals hopes alive?
