    Honourable mentions to Nathan Brown and Byron Pickett. I think you will find Nathan Brown did a lot of things behind the play and in the last quarter he new he was running out of puff and was looking for other options rather than hogging the ball himself. A really good effort from a player that gets bagged a lot but always gives his all for our club.

    Wow - winning really rocks doesn't it????

    Couldn't agree more about Nathan Brown. He is unfairly criticized on this forum for his apparent lack of skills. I watched his kicking closely tonight and he found his target on almost all occasions. His courage has never been in doubt.

    Actually ,I know it doesn't mean much but the HeraldSun's unbiased journalist gave Brown BOG !

    I don't know how anyone can leave Jones or Bell out of the votes.

    Both were exceptional, and had big jobs to do.

    Robbo was also very good, especially when pushing up the ground. He wasn't his 'selfish' self, as some would suggest.

    i didnt see the game live but watched the replay this morn, i didnt get to watch it with my full attention but from what i saw jones davey and holland were our 3 best while the other 3 come from johnstone, robertson, brown, white and bell...

    the thing with davey was simply that he put himself in the right positions, he crumbed well and he chased hard. jones was at the bottom of everything, and invariably got it out, one of his best games for the club - and topped it off with a great crumbing goal, and holland was our best big man i thought, marking everything, although i thought robertson, newton and the skip all looked alright up forward, even if skip looked like he'd left his contacts at home...

    johnstone is an architect, and this game reaffirmed he is more valuable than bruce when both are playing on top of their games, if we are to trade for for picks i would rather bruce go, but if trapper can play like this all next year, and bruce get his legs right and his kicking up to scratch well we could end up having a very good year.

    • PREVIEW: Richmond

      A few years ago, the Melbourne Football Club produced a documentary about the decade in which it rose from its dystopic purgatory of regular thrashings to the euphoria of a premiership victory. That entire period could have been compressed in a fast motion version of the 2025 season to date as the Demons went from embarrassing basket case to glorious winner in an unexpected victory over the Dockers last Saturday. They transformed in a single week from a team that put in a pedestrian effort of predictably kicking the ball long down the line into attack that made a very ordinary Bombers outfit look like worldbeaters into a slick, fast moving side with urgency and a willingness to handball and create play with shorter kicks and by changing angles to generate an element of chaos that yielded six goals in each of the opening quarters against Freo.

    • NON-MFC: Round 07

      Round 7 gets underway in iconic fashion with the traditional ANZAC Day blockbuster. The high-flying Magpies will be looking to solidify their spot atop the ladder, while the Bombers are desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top eight. Later that evening, Fremantle will be out to redeem themselves after a disappointing loss to the Demons, facing a hungry Adelaide side with eyes firmly set on breaking into the top four. Saturday serves up a triple-header of footy action. The Lions will be looking to consolidate their Top 2 spot as they head to Marvel Stadium to clash with the Saints. Over in Adelaide, Port Adelaide will be strong favourites at home against a struggling North Melbourne. The day wraps up with a fiery encounter in Canberra, where the Giants and Bulldogs renew their bitter rivalry. Sunday’s schedule kicks off with the Suns aiming to bounce back from their shock defeat to Richmond, taking on the out of form Swans.Then the Blues will be out to claim a major scalp when they battle the Cats at the MCG. The round finishes with a less-than-thrilling affair between Hawthorn and West Coast at Marvel. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

      The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?
