Gawn - great without dominating 

Viney - great first half

Petracca - class above everyone 

Salem - not always convincing 

Fritsch - classy ten minutes 

May - brave and impressive 

Lever - continued excellent season

McDonald - turned career around 

Neal Bullen - some impressive moments 

Sparrow - is becoming elite

Howes - maturity belies experience 

vanRooyen - was almost exciting

Langdon - running game returns

Oliver - lacked smooth transitions

Rivers - was mostly classy

McVee - career best game

Windsor - a smooth operator 

Petty - slowly finding form

 Brown - was rarely sighted

 Chandler - great first half

Woewodin - had limited opportunities 

Billings - wasted easy conversions

Pickett - exciting but undisciplined

    Billings will not want to watch that game again.  Snatching at chances is one thing, but that attempt at a tackle on Rankin was not our brand.

    joeboy - nailed it convincingly 

    As an encore for the last Saturday’s heroics not an easy watch. Bayley Fritsch’s cameo almost worth the cost of admission.

    Back to regular away game service from the adjudicators. The team within the local team.  Holding the ball, incorrect disposal simply erased from the rule book. Either serial non- decisions, a crow ‘rewarded’ with a free kick or balls it up.

    I can't remember doing the double against the Crows and Powa in the same home and away season, this seems to be a first for mine.

    Stand to be corrected.

    In 2022 we beat Port in round 4 and then Adelaide in round 16. Both in Adelaide.

    Fritta only needs to play about ten mins a game to change it's trajectory.

    Definitely an issue. Many would have seen him grimace (at a training session?) when a fan went to shake his injured hand.

    I'd like to know the exact problem. A broken bone? Does the club expect it to heal over the bye?

    He started as a backman, but his disposal was diabolical.

    Moved to the forward line where he just had to kick at goal! His disposal has improved 100%. 

    He has got slower, so getting the ball and turning towards goal is no longer feasible. Much better defending/attacking the ball without have to turn. Good on him!!

    Re BT. Total fool. "Wowee" and "no trouble at all" seem to be his favourites.

    Re King. He flip flops so much. Someone referred to his "inane overanalysis". That description was spot on! 

    The one commentator who loves the Dees is Montagna.

    Those pesky umpires caused Billings to miss 3 goals why didn't they just let him have them again I say....

    • AFLW REPORT: St. Kilda

      The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.

      It's Game Day or has everyone given up. Maybe it is because a prime time Friday game is so rare ... double checks today is Friday ... Come on DL'ers support the team one last time for the year!
