Shame re Jvr.

Gone from being a really promising player to a liability.

Has tried but only amassed two marks and zero goals.

Now there is a question mark over Jefferson but early days for him.

Melksham and Petty fwd would have helped.

Oh well.

I think this may be our season finished

But I liked our pressure for three quarters.

Kicked ourselves out of it with the umpires not helping as well but we had our chances.

Just a continuation of no decent fwd line.

Same old same old.

Why Turner wasn't moved fwd I don't get.

Goody gets set in his ways.

    Absolutely lost thisgame at selection. Fwd line abysmal

    Jefferson, Fritsch jvr all useless today


    Season over.

    You don't score on your dominance this is what you get.

    Dorks are pretenders don't care what anyone says.

    Fed up with 5 years of atrocious goal kicking, we waste every time.

    We should've won the game.
     

    Another game and another dysfunctional display by our forward line. It’s the same story every season.

    What a disappointing end to the game. Level at 3Q, in it. 5* goals loss and out without a whimper. Lame. Can’t blame that on umpiring.

    Yep Turner moved forward way too late and the Kolt should have been on earlier

    Worst thing this happened in 22,23, 24.... And so on.

    Nothing [censored] me more than seeing an opposition player get stuck into one of our young players and not a single teamate coming into help.


    When are we sacking our 'High Performance Coach'

    Oliver clearly not up to standard, we can’t keep covering for him means everyone else working twice as hard and we are cooked by the 4th qtr

    I agree our goalkicking was atrocious and we were generally sloppy but with better umpiring we’re up by 2+ goals at half and we are absolutely not tied at 3q time.

    • 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.
