Max Gawn is the demon helmsman. Best performance by a ruckman this season.

    We didn’t start all that great, and it’s probably not ideal that we leaked nearly 100 points…

    BUT

    We were challenged by a team fighting for finals/with momentum and we steered the ship. No easy games from here. 

    Importantly, we found our way to goals and it was exhilarating at times. Petty and Melksham were simply awesome. 

    Even more importantly, very quietly, can you feel us cranking up??! 

    CAN YOU!!??? 

    Go Dees 🔥

    That was a finals type match and both teams had everything to play for.  We prevailed comfortably in the end after being headed several times.  That’s what the fair dinkum contenders do!  Bring on September!

    Great last quarter and Captain Max was amazing.

    Good to see JVR play is best game thus far.

    Same! We're going to be steamrolling them with Clarrie and Fritsch.

    Sparrow, Clarrie and Fritta make that team better on paper, pig too. Going to have some selection headaches soon.

    Credit to goody. Even though Tommo had a tough one, he was rewarded this weekend. And thanks for trialling Petty once more.

    The momentum changed in the 4th quarter. I think we came out to really make a statement. A hard fought comfortable win.

    Petty not a forward hey???? 

    Watch the” Petty can’t play forward” posters jump on the bandwagon now.

    Max was sensational again and Viney is our bull.

    Maybe Binman is right too with the loading, as we certainly ran away from them in the last.

    Hopefully we can now run over teams, right through to the flag.

    No!  he is the perfect Sub.

    He is, but we are also a tall forward short.

    See how many intercept marks Richmond got today in our forward line.

    Keep Tomlinson back, drop Harmes/Woewodin/Jordon and move Smith forward.

    • 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.
