Kind of shocked heโ€™s about 1 from 100 in taking contested marks even with getting clean hands on the ball so often.

That has to flip, got to be purely confidence and some strength under the ball because he marked it with ease in juniors.

His reading of the play and decision making are both excellent. Hopefully we see some more on ball time because we need that smarts in the corridor

Possibly his best game yet. I know he kicked 3 against the Hawks earlier this year but today everything he did was damaging. On top of his use of the ball by foot, I was really impressed by his releasing handballs and decision making.

agreed. the release to chandler for a goal was superb.

 

24 touches, 6th most on the ground, at 75% DE, 3 goal assists, 9 score involvements, and always in the right place to receive on the outside of the contest.

Kid is a jet.

That kick to Melk made me drool. His gut run to spoil (3rd quarter?) was also exceptional.

3 goal assists, 9 score involvements, 500m gained. Seriously good.

Just now, whatwhat say what said:

very hard to see him not being the rising star winner at this point

not sure what other rookies are close to as assured

curtin 26 and 1 for the crows yesterday his only competition for the award

his skills are clean and sharp and he uses the ball very well

great pick for us

Curtin giving him a run for his money but to be fair heโ€™s a second year player in a top 4 team

Youโ€™d have to think Langford is polling the best out of the 2024 draftees - having an absolutely stellar debut season ๐Ÿ‚

For someone so left-side dominant, he still has plenty of time with ball in hand.

Heโ€™s arguably in our best 5 players already and will remain that way for many years to come

imagine him after a full pre season

XL too who barely had any preseason and itโ€™s showing now

Surely heโ€™s the Rising Star favourite. Another excellent performance. He was so composed in tough contests.

Reckon Curtin is currently

Realistically, how many players in the comp can spot that handpass to Chandler, and also nail it? That's just one of his brilliant displays today. Kid's a star.


Absolute gun..

His kicking is an absolute weapon. Hes got a great mix of that Pendles composure and Viney grunt.

Have to agree this kid plays like he has 100-150 games under his belt. Poise and makes the right decision so often.

Vital for our future.

Curtin has had a few good games recently, but across the whole season Langford is a clear level above. He's averaging 7 disposals more, more goals, more tackles, more score involvements, higher disposal efficiency etc. He's currently ranked in the top 100 players, with Nick Daicos the only other debut year player to do that since pre-covid. Levi Ashcroft is the only player eligible who could otherwise win it, though he's had the luxury of playing in the top team, getting lots of easy ball fed to him across half back and his disposals haven't been as damaging. Langfords disposal efficiency and hurt factor is through the roof.

He's absolutely flying and looks like exactly what we hoped he'd become. Future star midfielder who hits the scoreboard - our next Trac.

He is 5th line of betting which is absurd.

Must be because most punters don't watch boring Melbourne matches late every Sunday arvo. I don't blame them.

He's worth a bet at those demented unbalanced odds. Thanks for the tip!

Not sure if its been mentioned but the handball in traffic in the second quarter to set up chin for a goal was just sublime vision.

So many would have thrown that on the boot to a pack inside f50.

Crazy that he has that sort of game sense and IQ in his first year.

Should be the favourite for the Rising Star.

  • GAMEDAY: Western Bulldogs

    It's Game Day and the Demons will be running out on the field with a new Head Coach, albeit a caretaker, for the first time in 3,060 days when they face the Western Bulldogs at the MCG today. What do you want to see from the Demons in the first match of the Post Simon Goodwin era?

  • Thank You Simon Goodwin

    As Demon fans, weโ€™ve ridden a rollercoaster of emotions over the decades; the heartbreaks, the near misses, the wooden spoons, and the endless waiting. But through it all, we clung to hope. And then came Simon Goodwin. Before he ever wore red and blue, he was a champion in his own right. A five-time All-Australian, two-time Best and Fairest, and two-time premiership hero and Captain with Adelaide, Simon Goodwin was always destined to lead. When he transitioned from the field to the coach's box, first as an assistant at Essendon, he began shaping a new legacy.

  • PREVIEW: Western Bulldogs

    Long ago and far away, the Melbourne Football Club replaced its coach in difficult circumstances after the team suffered a devastating loss. In the aftermath, I penned the following words: โ€œThen came the politics, the intrigue, the axing, the sound of the football world laughing at a club, the circling of the media vultures, the reinvention of history, the anger, the irony, the pathos, the hurt on the face of the president, the dignified departure of the coach, and the determination of the newly appointed caretaker.โ€ Today, weโ€™re back in the same place although oneย difference here is that the coach who was terminated this time is Simon Goodwin, the man who four years ago

  • REPORT: West Coast

    The Charles Dickens novel, A Tale of Two Cities, opens with, โ€œIt was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, โ€ฆโ€ย  This phrase highlights many of the significant challenges that humanity encounters in life, ranging from experiencing remarkable highs to living in times of despair. This is a concept that should resonate with all supporters of the Melbourne Football Club this morning as they reflect on its comprehensive 83-point victory over the struggling West Coast Eagles at Marvel Stadium. The outcome proved beyond doubt that they are the worst of clubs and that we are the best of the worst.

    With only 3 games to go, all against Top 8 fancies, the Demons face a daunting task as they return to the MCG when they play the Western Bulldogs. Who comes in and who goes out?
