    Excellent win, very strongly influenced by our next generation players.  
    My votes:

    6.  Rivers  -  BOG!  His week by week improvement as a mid bodes extremely well for our future, both in 2024 and beyond.  
    5.   JvR  -  his best game at the level.  Another youngster on a significant upward trajectory.  Huge future for a young KPF.
    4.   Windsor  - has shown great potential from his debut in Round 0, and today was his best yet!   
    3.   TMac  -  choosing the right option, and pin point passing by hand and foot were features today.  The only ‘elder statesman’ in my votes, but he’s rediscovered his ‘youth’ as a defender.   
    2.  Pickett  -  always dangerous, and continuing to build his consistency in the combined midfield / forward role.  
    1.   Chandler  -   excellent game as a defensive forward, which was great reward for his outstanding work-rate.

    I reckon we turned an important corner today, but next week will be more testing material.

    6 - Trent Rivers, has taken over the reins

    5 - Jacob van Rooyen, best yet 4.4 could have been 5-6.

    4 - Caleb “The Duke” Windsor showed his full range of skills today, had strong impact

    3 - Tom McDonald provided defensive excellence , I would also love him to go around again in ‘25.

    2 - Kozzie what a great game and loved that he finally took that screamer.

    1 - Mr. Ed Langdon back to his best, looks like he is enjoying playing footy again, maybe a new contract just around the corner?

    Then ANB, Jake Melksham (makes us better), Kolt, Chandler, Salo, Judd McVee, Frittata is back, we batted deep today, great team effort, no passengers.

    6 Rivers - looks at home in the midfield

    5 JVR - at last several confident aggressive contested marks - pith that his sharp shooting wasn't his usual 

    4 Windsor - cool calm and collected and love his disposal

    3 TMcD

    2 McVee

    1 Kolt

    So many after #3 that there will be a lot of apologies

    Quite remarkable to think that it is more than feasible to say that our best 5 players on the ground were 23 and under. Rivers, Windsor, Kossie, JVR and McVee. Honourable mentions to Chin, Kolt and AMW. Add to that most of our established  'stars' were good to average it's a very encouraging performance.  Sure, it's only the Eagles, but it's a 10 goal mauling.  Not sure if this has occurred often in the AFL.

    • GAMEDAY: St. Kilda

      It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      It seems like only yesterday that these two sides faced off against each other in the centre of the continent. It was when Melbourne was experiencing a rare period of success with five wins from its previous six matches including victories over both of last year’s grand finalists.  Well, it wasn’t yesterday but it was early last month and it remains etched clearly in the memory. The Saints were going through a slump and the predicted outcome of their encounter at TIO Traeger Park was a virtual no-brainer. A Melbourne victory and another step closer to a possible rise into finals contention. Something that was unthinkable after opening the season with five straight defeats.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

      The Demons come face to face with St. Kilda for the second time this season for their return clash at Marvel Stadium on Sunday. Who comes in and who goes out?
