Really thought Oliver was unfairly pinged a lot Tonight.

Very inconsistent umpire on htb. Hot then cold then hot

    These wins galvanise teams. 

    We stepped up and despite seemingly trying to kick ourselves out of it, did what we had to do, when we needed to do it. Highlights for me, Caleb clutch tackle and goal, and the FRIBBLER! 

    A great outcome to nab this one. I still think the Blues are more dangerous. Win that, and we are on our way. If we play with the same pressure and kick better we will cover them. 

    Proud of the grit shown by the boys.

    Go Dees 🔥

     

    But we still need to improve the kicking, it was the reason we lost against Collingwood and Carlton in the finals.

    But overall a great performance.

    Wow. Gut wrenching last quarter.

    Thank you  Jeremy.

    Max - you led us to victory.

    Lever - the rock.

    Petty - welcome back

    Langdon - you can have a rest now.

    Fritsch - how the hell you were never drafted at 18yo, I will never know. You are simply brilliant.

    Suck on that Cats. I love beating that team.

    Goal of the season to Fritsch. Magic effort to win it.

    Defensively brilliant all night. Lever superb.

    Great to see Petty clunking them and back in form.

    Goal kicking not good. Far out we nearly kicked it away.

    We’re up to our necks in it this year. Make no mistake.

    Go Dees

    A few more highlights, obviously Lever a one man fortress. Probably BOG. And so good to have Petty’s mitts back on. Once he gets the feet working again, he will be a big asset. His marks were so important. 

    watching the vision right now you can see how happy the boys are for Petts. Great to see.

    I apologise for the doom and gloom in the match thread, I just can't help it. Everything about this game pointed to another heartbreaking, self inflicted loss.

    Thank god it wasn't.

    Petty the MVP.

    We’re in the hunt for the premiership. Make no bones about it. We’re a top 4 team. 
     

    I thought Geelong would beat us tonight and I am bloody wrapped how wrong I was. 
     

    we are fixing our forward issues and there was clear evidence in that game. 
     

    Petty getting the cobwebs off.

     

    [censored] bring on the blues and let’s see how they like us this year.

    • 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.
