Dom Tyson re-signs

Featured Replies

He is a ripper - just needs to be fractionally quicker with his decision making and also sharpen his kicking/handball skills by about 5% and we have an absolute star.

Pretty sure Jobe Watson had similar inefficiencies that he worked through and started playing to his strengths.

Needs to get on his bike a bit when he gets the pill - gets caught too often. And his kicking from a back flank is always hazardous as he tries to do too much - needs to spend some time with Bernie who waits and waits and then pulls the trigger on the best option rather than rushing a speculative kick into the Centre Half back region.

Feel like the best footy of his career was his first year with us which was probably a bit more care free as the 1st/2nd top mid - looks like he thinks a bit too much about each disposal now. I trust him to get back to his best.

 

Dom is good!

Remember when they came after Tom McDonald... look at him now!

Remember when they came after Jack Watts... look at him now!

Remember when they came after Cam Pederson... look at him now!

Remember when they came after Bernie Vince... look at him now!

Remember when they came after Sam Frost... look at him now!

Some DL's have a shocking strike rate!

Yeah but did they come for Craig Smoker?...look at him now :)

 

His post match interview from last week is worth watching. It's a cracker.

Talks about the current belief in the group like it's this foreign concept he's still trying to get used to.

  • 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.
