No true small forward! Kozzy better than Moore everyday of the week. 

I disagree. Love Kozzie but Moore has kicked one less goal and has Kozzie covered in just about every other stat

 

Two mids on the half forward flank. Yeah Heeney does kick goals but come on.

I - Whitfield, Neale, Treloar, Butters

 

Happy for Treloar, he's been huge this year 

 

Max now one of only 10 players picked 7+ times

How on earth does Zorko and Ryan get AA honours. Selectors have no idea 

Fantastic Max! A bit of sunshine in our current dark days. Best ruck of all time 

 

Otherwise, can’t decide what’s more egregiously wrong:

- Ryan and McGovern both selected over Andrews

- Waterman selected over Curnow and Stengle

GAWN HAS TO BE CONSIDERED AS ONE OF THE GREATEST RUCKMAN TO HAVE EVER PLAYED THE GAME. 

CERTAINLY IS MELBOURNE’S GREATEST RUCKMAN 

No. He is the greatest.  Simon Madden next but did more work as a forward.  As a pure ruckman Max has no peer.

Absolute legend and arguably the best player in the comp over the past 5 years. Looking forward to his next 3 - 4 years.

Congrats to big Jesse and turning his career around.

Really do miss him.

Superb Max ty.

In such illustrious company now with 7.

Very few can claim that mantle.


We will be able to tell our grandkids that we were privileged to watch the Great Max Gawn play. What a legend.

Waterman over Curnow is ridiculous. 

Massive congratulations - I desperately want him to get a 9th and another flag, he'll be a AFL legend after that. That's where I think he sits. ( I think he is already, just he'll need those stats to get through the bias against anything Melbourne).

Instead of floating stupid ideas like Wildcard round why doesn't an AA 2nd team even come close to getting a go?

The Dorko selection baffles me??

Not really.

Curnow is over rated and yet to really prove himself - when it counts. Good player, thats all.

  • 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.
