The Demons looked good early, but when the West Coast midfield took over they were able to do enough to register a victory.
Despite the dominance of the Eagles in the centre, Melbourne were within a point at the last change.
A lack of forward targets, other than the dangerous Robertson, hurt Melbourne who saw their five match winning streak halted.
Brad Miller was suspended for two matches for striking.
