Very good

Thorstrup. Tired second half

Langford Next big thing

Agree on Salem. Cost us two goals against and then without pressure hit their player between two of ours.

I’d drop him for McVee.

I'd swap Sparrow and Melksham. Langford and Lindsay both deserve more credit.

I can’t see why people label Langford slow, he’s quick to think, quick to react, quick to pick the right option, quick to get running to the right position, I don’t get it.

Very Pendlebury like!

Some of the best footballers I've seen were supposedly "slowish". Williams (Greg), Robert Harvey, Paul Kelly.

Clarry had a few howlers today but he did a lot of grunt work, was pretty happy with him.

Yes at least 3 absolute howlers. Two cost us goals. His endeavour was unquestionable, and he gave his all, but there’s no denying that his execution was often poor.

Yeah but..... given what he has achieved for the club and himself and to bounce back from personal adversity, and recreate himself yep, at least he has done that! He may never be as good as he was but sheeiet he still is a damn fine player, a better clubperson, and I thought his last quarter was phenomenal, won Ultra hard ball, took a few massive hits and kept going. LOVE THE MAN!

Clayton was massive in that last quarter he sure took some knocks and never faulted.

Tholstrup - provided much energy (Until he tired - good return)

Played his best game for the year. That's the minimum we should expect from him not the [censored] he's dished up this year. We are a lot better team when he's playing like that.

  • GAMEDAY: Port Adelaide

    It’s Game Day, and the Demons are on the road for the next month and will be desperate to claim a crucial win to keep their finals hopes alive against Port Adelaide.

  • 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?
