Bugg does get in all the right areas, just doesn’t normally kick straight, if he can then he’s damaging.

Is in our top 5 this season for score involvements (averages) at AFL level

It has to be a bit of a concern. This season if Max was injured Peds would back him up hopefully admorably as he did last year. But Peds is 31 and would only have a year max left in him after this you would think. Hope we can get plenty of match experience and continue to develop our two young rucks.

He's not showing any signs yet of slowing down, I reckon.

Has the talent to be better than the VFL but not the skill set to make him good in the AFL. He is not alone.

Plenty knocking down the door for selection, pressure on tomorrow if you don’t perform 

One of the signs of a good club.

May need to trade for one, Aints have about 4 on their list that can’t get a run at it???

Longer.

Great to see so many playing well today to keep the pressure on, although it sounds like Frankston aren't exactly what you would term as 'stiff opposition'.

I think its mind over matter for Buggy.  He should be able to overcome that.

Bugg 5?

Yeh a chase down for holding the ball and a snap goal

Is also in our top 5 for forward 50 tackles behind Pedders, Clarry, Jeffy, and Harmes


That's all folks - after the final siren goal to Dolphins.

21.13 to4.9

Pedo & Bugg - 6 each

Interesting stats re Bugg, sounds better than ANB

A late goal to the Dolphins but it’s all over and a big win by 106 points.

But Buggs played fewer games, interesting

Sorry i was 1 off...subtract one place from each (see edit).  They are averages so all relative comparisons SF

Jeffy is going ok - a couple of goal assists which set up Pedo who's definitely been the star of the show.

Tyson is the carry over emergency for tomorrow so isn't playing. 

Thanks mate

 

Thanks KC, Drunkn67 and all other posters, sounds like a really great win from our perspective and after all that is all that counts, Sounds like Pedo had a Cracker of a game, looking forward to stats and write-up's. Go Casey............!!!!!!!!!!!!!,

Go Dee's.......!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Just came back from the game. One way traffic but a couple of observations.

Oskar Baker made several poor decisions and this was a little disappointing. Needs to inject himself into the game a bit more. And get rid of that shite haircut. If you're playing badly don't bring attention to it. I made a point of watching his game and there's clearly potential but I left unconvinced about his footy smarts (this coming from someone who was a really dumb player)

Jayden Hunt played ok but chip kicks aren't his go. Good voice out on the field.

JKH is too smart a footballer for this level but is probably unlucky to be at Melbourne given our number of mids.

Pedo was outstanding.

Bugg has presence and, to his credit, he was very good today.

  • 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.
