Was there this morning

1. Would be very surprised if Chris Dawes plays, seems to have an ongoing issue with the ankle, left on the golf cart half way through and returned, media in attendance so may appear

2. Jack Watts did not do the main session, I got there about 9.30am and he was training with the Casey group, did everything for about 20 mins and then left, assume like Sam Blease last week he has something personal to attend to

For all the junior coaches, Satterly spent about 20 mins with Hogan looking at his kicking for goal

One interesting bit, there was media there, couple of cameras and Craig took them onto the ground to be near the main group when they were warming up and do a little drill

I hope they don't play Dawes in a similar condition to last week, it only did him and the team harm by having him out there virtually incapacitated.

How was the intensity from the main group? Take anything from it?

Could be why a few people left early

Just tweeted

Melbourne will hold an open training session at Gosch's Paddock from 2:00 p.m.

The main group was up and about as they like to say, Frawley looks refreshed, so perhaps the injury was a good thing, if that makes sense, Craig was all over the place during training, in a good way, one on one seems to be his speciality, had a quick chat with Watts before he left.

Watched Rohan Welsh taking the Casey boys for something different, he is good, no wonder they are flying

The good news is Viney, looks nearly ready, still doing laps and bit of ball work

  • 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.

  • POSTGAME: West Coast

    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.
