Frankston v Casey Scorpions

Featured Replies

Good to see Fitzy actually get a game and also get a mention in the 2s.

I presume he will be back in the 1s in no time - he needs to be tested and see what he can do, though he would be excused for being "out of touch".

How about

- Cook - looks as if he may not have played;

- Tom McDonald?

No, they both played. Not as good as a month ago.

Arrived about half way through the 1st qtr today and left half way through the last. Meaning I missed about 5 of Fev's goals and left thinking he'd kicked about 5!

Was pretty disappointed with the individual performances of the Melbourne boys today. Thought our best would have been Evans who had a good 2nd half and worked hard, still didn't get a heap of it but had a good day. A real honest footballer

Liked Jetta's game, didn't dominate but layed lots of tackles combined with 1 %'s and everytime he got the ball he looked class and use it beautifully

Dunn was pretty solid. Kicked a few towards the end and finished with 4 goals. Put in a hard working, solid performance and would be pleased. Didn't think he tore the game apart however. Copped a bit from the crowd for the moustache!

Thought Blease, Bennell and Cook struggled today. Especially Blease, really quiet periods and made some shocking errors, looked really frustrated on the bench… guess he was stuffed around a bit with MFC selection, sub and then dropped, wasn't too happy and a bit lost. Bennell and Cook very quiet but Cook did a couple of impressive things. Really not confident about those 3… Blease and Cook have improvement left though.

Campbell wasn't great. Didn't dominate the ruck as he should have and was quiet around the ground. Really liked his 2nd efforts in the stoppages though.

A really weird atmosphere down at Frankston! Some abusive supporters (that fev snapped back at) and a drum and trumpet to go with it!

  • REPORT: West Coast

    On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

    Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.
