A new dawn, a new @[email protected] - and what a game to kick off the 2026 season! #GoDees #DemonSpirit #MelbourneFC #AFL #AustralianRulesFootball #AFLDeesSaints

Great stuff Melbourne, really terrific win in Steven King’s coaching debut! Look so much more positive & energised, and even just another Pickett and Van Rooyen finally realising his full potential add so much besides. Dees going to be pretty exciting to watch this season I reckon. #afldeessaints
