    Petty spent most of the day on Larkey

    Some of these comments are absolutely absurd.

    Xerri is best ruck in the comp and still on the rise. Max had one bad game against him. He doesn’t need to retire after one poor game. 
     

    Langdon was a bright spot last year and he’s being asked to shift roles this year. He’s had a bad game. Doesn’t mean his career is over. 
     

    Get a grip people. 

    Let's discuss Max more in depth.

    Do you think he's got the speed and stamina require for the current style of footy?

    Unless you make him a more permanent piece in our fwd line, don't see him being good come next year. He's been a great ruckman and thanks for your service but we need to move forward.

    Sad thing is we haven't got anyone good to bring in.

    Goody never makes strong statements & drops players that need to be dropped

    Losing is not the issue it the lack of effort by senior players and the lack of talent on those coming through. This is no light on the horizon stuff. Absolutely no positives at all

    No. He's still a very good player. Trouble is he's had to carry everything by himself for eons.

    The club admitted as much when it recruited Grundy.

    Did it bother replacing him ?

    Na. Just didn't care.

    9 goal belting by north. I’m dreading the Geelong game

    Speed? He’s never been fast but somehow managed to be the GOAT and a 7x AA selection…

    Stamina? Absolutely. He’s still a warrior. 
     

    Are you sure you’ve been watching the same Max Gawn that everyone else has for the past decade?

    of all the rubbish from this team today our greatest club champion of all time is the guy you’re ready to kick to the curb???

    Far too many broken tackles today.

    More inside 50s and losing by 10 goals is something. 

    Rivers must be pulling his hair out. Working so hard to find an option. No one leading or moving at all. Finally finds an option and delivers accurately under pressure. The player he kicks to bombs long or turns it over.

    Not as much as Clarry


    Jeez, that trash today Collingwood is beating us in stats for the game!IMG_6323.jpeg.a7f5b8123438ec365b8f0cf3bee578b5.jpeg

     

    Midfield absolutely pantsed today, poor stoppage set up, need to honey pot then getting burnt in transition.

    Gawn well beaten

    Viney 3 times blazed into f50 straight down Combens throat, handballs not hitting targets, kicking over teammates in the open.

    If you want to be a laughing stock you sack the coach in Rd 2

    Stay strong regroup and back your players, to turn the basics around

    Our problem is that we won't move forward, like with Goodwin.

    That includes the playing list, as hard the decision may be.

    • 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.

      It's Game Day and the Demons face a monumental task as they take on the top-of-the-table Magpies in one of the biggest games on the Dees calendar: the King's Birthday Big Freeze MND match. Can the Demons defy the odds and claim a massive scalp to keep their finals hopes alive?
