That Kossi bloke is not too bad.


Langdon had five second half possessions with 1 tackle. Went missing big time.

I think that's the problem.

Our lack of quality smalls and theirs being so good really stood out today.

Tom McDonald - Best on GroundĀ

Johnson - tried but lacking

A bit tough I think, I thought he was very competitive and strong in the contest. Pretty good for mature recruit, never played at the level

Henderson also looked comfortable with the pace of the game

Lindsay looks swift and classy! Thought I was watching a Febey ā™„ļøšŸ’™

Also gave 2 goals away in the first half through lazy kicks...going backwards no less

I heard the ABC call for the first half and watched mist of the second half.

i think I agree Chandler, Howes and Fritta

should be embarrassed to take the coin for this week and be nervous about next week’s.Ā 
and I think the AFL and their round zero can shove that idea where the sun does not shine.

we did well but not well enoughĀ

Fritsch out Turner in, and put May at FF

Chandler out Spargo in

I was at the G and kept a close eye on Fritsch for most of the game.

Whilst he was far from his best and didn't trouble the scorers, I was encouraged by him getting a lot more involved in the sleeves up, second & third effort type stuff, rather than his more typical floating around the fringes waiting for someone to get it to him.Ā 

If he isn't getting points on the board I at least want him putting heat on the opposition defenders so someone else potentially can.

To my eye, he did that job pretty well.

How much credit does Fritsch have in the bank after his Grand Final success?

At what stage can we say that his performances just aren’t worthy of automatic selection?

Carefull....

At times he looked sore and at one stage he couldnt run but in aswer to the question probably by round 4.Ā  Still, who comes in?

I agree

He showed no interest at all getting himself into the game

Fortunately for him, we don't have a replacement

Bowey - impressive all game

Yes Chook, I felt that Bowey was impressive across the game, not necessarily all game - but it was great to see him more active and inventive with his kicking skills, accuracy and tenacity in winning the ball on occasion. He can only put these experiences in the bank, work on these, become (once again) a really good clearing backman. I'd hope that the return of Judd will add to his capacities etc.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: #7Ā Jack Viney

    The Demon stalwart surpassed the number of his father's appearances for the club towards the end of the season. As he approaches his thirties, his pace is inevitably slowing, and he is likely to explore alternative opportunities beyond the team's midfield.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: #8 Jake Lever

    The Demon premiership defender who has the reputation the master of intercept possessions as well as great leadership qualities managed only eight senior games this season as he battled injury and form, prompting speculation that he might be enticed to look elsewhere.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: #10 Daniel Turner

    ā€œDiscoā€ took his time (four seasons) but the mid-season draftee has been a shining light of Melbourne's campaign, improving to become a versatile option at either end of the ground. He has great marking skills which allows him to play as a marking target up forward or an intercepting defender down back.Ā

  • 2025 Player Reviews: #11 Max Gawn

    The skipper delivered another outstanding season, leading the team from the front, participating in every game, and earning club champion honours, while also securing an equal record eighth All-Australian blazer as a ruckman.Ā  Max Gawn is arguably the greatest exponent of ruck skills in the history of the game; an exceptional leader who has guided the club to a premiership, through the challenging times that followed, and now into the next phase of its storied history.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: #12 Koltyn TholstrupĀ 

    It was a frustrating season for the former number 13 draft selection, who failed to build momentum in his second campaign; Tholstrup played only nine games, having been omitted twice and substituted out three times. However, he demonstrated promising signs in the midfield at Casey towards the end of the season, and big things are anticipated from him in the coming years.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: #13 Clayton Oliver

    Clayton Oliver, a four-time best and fairest winner at the club, has navigated a challenging period over the past two years, marked by injuries and personal issues, but has demonstrated promising signs suggesting a return to his optimal form in 2025. He is presently contracted to the club for an additional five years, with a substantial annual salary of approximately $1.7 million in the final seasons of his agreement. All at Melbourne are eagerly anticipating his resurgence to his previous peak performance levels.
