and -476 for Salem for his ridiculous dinky kicks, but especially for missing an absolute sitter - not making the distance from 42 metres out.

    6 May - kept the dangerous Curnow on a pretty tight leash.

    5 Viney - four quarters of ferocious work.

    4 Brayshaw - unspectacular but effective.

    3 Petracca - influence grew as the game went on.

    2 Hunter - did more than his share of running and chasing.

    1 Oliver - quiet first half but helped turn the tide in the second.

     

    Biggest disappointment: Salem, usually so calm and cool but the radar was sadly astray tonight.

    4. Viney - forgiven for the volume of clangers because he frankly half the time it was supernatural that he even got the ball in the situations he was in.

    3. Oliver - bit underdone, eh.

    2. Rivers - one of few who really gained ground in useful ways

    1. May - Broke even with the current best forward in the game.

    There'd be some honourable mentions, but I really have to give my own -1 to Salem, who's [censored] pop-up handballs were more likely to get a teammate injured than get a counter-attack going, and whose kicking was all over the place.

    Multiple players had some good moments but simply weren't in it often enough.

    6 - JV 

    5 - Gus just got better and better

    4 - Tracc kicked the winning goal but was robbed

    3 - Hunter 

    2 - Ed

    1 - Clarry had a huge second half very rusty but he has had a huge break from footy.

    Special mentions to our mighty backline May, Lever, Riv, Judd & Bowey and our Skipper who dominated the Ruck contests.

    6. Brayshaw. Hardest I've seen him work.

    5. Viney

    4. May. Did his job.

    3. Rivers. Useful

    2. Langdon. Kept running.

    1. Tracc, 2 goals should have been 3.

    Just watched the replay.

    6 Rivers - Good in air in greasy conditions and provided great disposal and dash and tight on opponents. Most improved player by miles.

    5 Petracca - the classiest player on ground and hardest for Blues to contain scored the winning goal (which wasn't). Worked hard on defence as well.

    4 Lachie Hunter - clever positioning all night. Not dangerous but always presenting and made a hue goalsquare marking contest save early.

    3 Angus Brayshaw - like Trac seemed to realise Carlton's intensity was more than ours and stepped up and put his body on the line time and time again. But played on influential Cripps for a lot of night so loses points.

    2 Steven May - really strong and provided offensive support with his lovely left foot. Held Coleman winner to two goals and about five kicks.

    1 Jack Viney - gave it his all, but not as clean as the past three weeks, so just the one.

    How can you have no defenders other than Salem & he was probably the worst defender on the night

    Midfield was smashed for a half

    • 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.

    • 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.
