    6 May - aside from that shocking smothered kick howler early, he was prominent all game. Marked well and generally kicked well. Getting older though - no longer sprightly with ground balls.

    5 T.Mac - as with May, our only chance of someone taking a clean mark and I can't remember any errant disposals. And anyone who thinks Lever should come in for him next week has rocks in their head. By contrast our third wheel down back Petty clearly should spend a long stint in the magoos.

    4 Chandler - gees this guy has improved. Played left half back and is just so smart and puts his body on the line.

    3 Bowey - got better as the game went on and continues his great start to the season.

    2 Fritsch - has copped the blowtorch the past three weeks and clearly was our best forward all night. If it wasn't for the fact that he currently has the yips, then no-one would be knocking him.

    1 Gawn - embarrassing early with a couple of huge howlers, but you have to give him credit for sticking at it and hopefully he played himself back into form, especially now that TC is injured and not an option to help him out.

    Tracc & Chin were more than handy, our bottom six really stunk it up.

    6 May - with TMac was the difference between a defeat and a humiliation.

    5 McDonald - definitely one of his better outings.

    4 Gawn - still a true warrior even if the years may be starting to take a toll.

    3 Chandler - for his sheer effort and gut-running all night.

    2 Petracca - influential but still not the dominator of old.

    1 Fritsch - some classy moments but sadly the radar is still astray.

    Like all of us, I’d love to have been celebrating 4 points, but it was at least a comfort to see several of our ageing leaders showing the way.

    My assessment:

    1. Gawn - Great to see our Skipper fight off adversity, and get back to some solid form. Work ethic was exemplary, and did lots of little things that often don’t get noticed (as borne out by his stats sheet shown by @spirit of norm smith above). Thanks Norm.

    1. May - The ‘dam wall’ would have broken much earlier if it hadn’t been for Maysie’s staunch defence. Great to have him back, and back in form.

    1. McDonald - Tommy wasn’t very far behind Maysie in deferring the inevitable last quarter breach in our once impenetrable defence.

    3. Oliver - A fair way off where we know he can get to, but that just shows how good he is at his best. He’ll get there, I reckon.

    1. Chandler - Busted his gut all night, applied pressure and I don’t recall any significant errors. Our only season-on-season improver imo, and it’s mostly based around fitness, work rate and consistency.

    1. Langdon - Worked tirelessly as he always does, and disposal was ‘iffy’ at times, as it often is.

    • 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.
