I’m far from a Lewis hater but can’t understand how could be in the votes today.

Lewis gets a vote cos unlike others he kept buttering up for secondary contests

We had a lot of top liners down (Hogan, Gawn, Salem) and a lot of b-graders plodding it up (Trac, Gus, Harmes, Spargo)

Ugly loss


Can someone explain how Jetta get in our best with 10 possessions and 2 tackles in a backline that let through 20 goals?

Agree. I am going to sleep on it.

Probably because he was clearly in the best. Too many too quick to pot him.

6 T-Mac - too tall and strong in one-on-ones on Scharenberg once sent permanently forward.

5 Oliver - Copped Treloar and others working him over, but our best midfielder on a dirty day for most of them.

Really struggled to find votes from here

4 Lewis - Yes I know he was exposed for pace time and time again, but he kicked the ball with precision time and time again - except for his late blunder pass to Jones. Should never have been allowed to play last line at times, but that's not his fault.

3 Fritsch - Smooth mover and I suspect when I watch replay he will come out even more clearly on top on his wing.

2 Jetta - Caught out for pace like all of our defenders and his 18-year-old opponent kicked four goals, but he read play really well again and worked his butt off in defeat.

1 Gawn - I thought it was pretty close in his battle with Grundy and because Cox smashed Pedo when the stars rested, maybe a few of us downplayed his contribution.

Apologies Spargo - Our second quarter spark, but unfortunately couldn't keep it going, like most of his mates.

Gee, it says a lot when I've included 3 or 4 mids in my best, but we were smashed around the stoppages all day!

As hard as it gets to find 6 worthy today.  So many were so far off their best it wasn't funny.

We played about as well as we did against Essendrug (output wise as a team) and got rightfully pantsed.  Probably more of an indication of were the Pies are at.  Bloody good form team right now as mentioned pre-match with genuine multiple A graders.  Could go close to making the big one this year.

6.  T-Mac

5.  Clarry

4.  Lewis - apart from that last horrible turnover across HB and inability to close down space on opponents quickly enough (zero tackles...wasn't alone in closing down space quickly ...Vince / Oscar et al) he was easily in our top 6 or so in terms of involvement.  Also topped our rebound 50 count with 8.

3.  Fritsch - this bloke just gets better and better!  Amazing courage also for such a small frame!  Other bigger framed (more experienced!) players could do worse than watch some examples of this young fella's effort / courage!!

Reality check for a lot of our ypunger boys, but won't do them any harm

 

6. Tommy. Six goals, fought hard and tried to give us a sniff. 

5. Gawn. Even the Collingwood fans sitting near me thought he was smashing Grundy. 

4. Jetta. The only defender who put in today. 

3. Oliver. Just keeps getting the ball.  Should have had three goals.  If he had kicked them he would be higher. 

2. Brayshaw. Some classy touches while holding a pretty solid tag.

1. Fritsch. Really, he tried, he worked hard, and nobody else deserves a vote. 

All 21 votes to T.Mac no one else deserves a vote.

  • 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.

  • GAMEDAY: West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?
