6. Petracca was outstanding all night.  His decision making and ball use set him apart.

5. Gawn, like Petracca was imperious. O'Brien is a very good AFL ruck and at times he made him look like a schoolboy.

4. McVee is developing into our very own Corey Enright.  Cat like reflexes, doesn't ever go to ground, sublime foot skills and as clean as a whistle.

3. May played like a guy who hasn't missed a beat.  Understandably his first half was better than his second, but he helped withstand the Crows early charge and got us going the other way.

2. Sparrow is really proving his worth as a mid forward.  Now a genuinely good AFL player who has become another problem for our opposition.

1. Fritsch played the best individual quarter of the night.  Granted he did little in the other three, but his scoreboard impact ended up being the difference!

And a big thank you to Fritsch, Windsor, Viney and JvR!

Sparrow. Fantastic game from him

then it gets hard

Lever Rivers Mcvee Howes Tmac

Windsor so much time, composed and fast.    and Langdon

Viney and AnB

the forwards I thought all of them worked and spread the load. Perhaps the sub change should have happened at the last change. In my view BBB ran all over the place. 
one appalling miss to picket early no goal.

two appalling frees missed that gave them goals. Should have been 30 points plus. Surely Kozzys was a football act smother!

If West Coast were smart they’d be targeting McVee to go home. 
He’s young, classy, shows great leadership, is well suited to Optus Stadium and plays a super important position very well.

We are very lucky to have him

  • 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.
