Haven't watched the game due to being overseas, what's happened to Salem? Says he's injured, AGAIN?! 

Have said nothing on tv about it so far. He was in the midfield and then disappeared so possible. 
He is too fragile to play midfield.

    I am not saying it’s working. Or a good strategy. Just answering the question. 
     

    Midfield and defense should be ashamed of this performance. Senior players an absolute disgrace with lack of accountability and defensive effort. 
    No excuses and I love May but Jesus stop carrying on like a pork chop, you’ve been embarrassed today. 

    Yep, I gotcha.

    We seem to be quite amazing at coming up with a strategy and sticking with it ALL game even when it's clearly not working.

    10 mins left and there's still loose Freo players everywhere in their f50

    It's that same old question mark about our lack of flexibility and adapting mid game if something is not working.

    Hasn’t been mentioned on the TV. Will let you know when I hear.

    This was never a team that was going to challenge for the flag. I had us making the 8 even with Gawn and Trac. Gonna be tough from here on out.

    After really fighting hard last week, did not expect us to be as soft as we have been today.

    Billings with 15 and a goal in a Q has been better than most

    I'm not sure what it says about our steam when Billings has already had more possessions in a half than about 3/4 of our side.

    Also I think we can dispel this is our 2nd home [censored]. Yes I know the significance of the ground but we are hopeless here.

    For what exactly?

    It was going to be hope for the rest of the season Murdoc. I'd like to change it to 'hope I've still got a little Scotch left from last week'

    Not that it makes any difference to the result but why does Sparrow continue to 'walk on water'? Seriously, when was the last decent game he has played? 2021 GF? So did everyone. Please don't give me 'he's playing a role'. [censored]. OK, midfield cupboard is fairly bare but make an example this bloke. Promote Brown and let Tom kick off the dew at Casey.

    And too slow off the mark.  Too often second to the ball.  He is simply NOT a mid fielder in any sense of the role and brings nothing to the table other than handing the oppo another opportunity at first use.

    Another terrible coaching decision from Simon today.


    Our shape around stoppage has been diabolical today along with everything else.

    Div 7 type positional awareness.

    Because something something he plays good defensive rubbish

    Lever embarrassing -  leaked goals all day.  Honestly can’t believe how lose he’s been and when he has won the ball he’s turned it over consistently

    Yes Turner, handball it back to Fritta so he can get gang tackled. 

    If a bloke of Turners size can’t mark he shouldn’t be in the team. That dropped mark was amateur hour

    • 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.
