May - better after first

Gawn - no votes today

Chandler. - strong running game

Rivers - often an observer

Petracca - important but limited

Fritsch - seemingly without passion

Salem - just a plodder

Oliver - couldn’t handle tag

Lindsay - needed more involvement

Johnson - replace with Roo

Pickett - unfortunately well held

Melksham - little drive today

Turner - a solid game

McVee - not his best

Langford - looking very tired

Windsor - poor under pressure

Langdon - untypically quiet game

Sharp - Viney obviously replaces

Sparrow - little involvement again

Bowey - little defensive drive

Petty - limited contesting effect

Lever - liability in defense

Laurie - made no difference

I enjoy your 3-Worders JB.

I concur with these 69 words, yet, we kicked seven more scores and had 17 more I50s, which baffles me that we looked so poor yet we did so well in the I50s!

All I can do is turn to a high-power: Buddha .

Buddha once said: "this is not as bad as it seems".

Anti-Saint to Buddha: "no, but our season is over and winter has only jus begun, now tthat is bad Buddha, when we have blown three seasons with poor kickin'"!

Buddha: "Anti-Saint, you win"!

 

Melbourne = FeS2

I think Lindsay is the better player, I'm more concerned with Langford on a wing & in general. fumbles too much below his knees and gets caught out in 2 way running, would rather Windsor or Langdon back on one wing.

Lindsay is good on the other...

And Langford is too slow for the wing. Better rotating forward and in the guts.

And yes, please put Windsor back on the wing 🙏

To be fair Budda may have downed a few single malts at the time of that famous quote.

Fair enough. Just think commentators are talking him up a bit. Langford is likely tired.

Spargo - dodged a bullet

Another player that should be considered lucky to play another game! Unless break glass in emergency situation!

  • 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.
