Watts Dropped from Port

Well...3 former Dees put in strong performances in the SANFL today to try and get a spot next week against us, none more so than Trengove. 27 disposals, 13 marks and 2 goals.  Barry also had 27 and Watts kicked 3 in a winning team. 

Like Ethan said, the short break might go against them this week but it would be good to see Trengove get a game soon.

    Wouldn't trouble me at all to see Trengove tear it up against us.

    (Provided we win, of course.)

    It's not that short a break given they played on the Thursday.

    I was talking about Trengove, Watts and Dom Barry pushing their claims to get a senior spot this week. Those 3 played yesterday in the SANFL.

    It’s a five day break for the ex-Melbourne players who played SANFL.

    Those three might have pushed their claims, but Port blew the Dogs away on the weekend.  I highly doubt they'll make wholesale changes to a winning side.

    Apologies. I misunderstood your post.

    I dont think any of them will be playing off a 5 day break. I thought Port would have kept him aside from the Sanfl team to come in against us.

    It does us a favour as the media attention is not over blown over Melbourne's decision to trade him.

    Part of his problem was the poor culture & development of the MFC which gifted games to players who didn’t earn the right to. 

  • Quote

    No. He was a boy who had his confidence smashed early, was never given the appropriate support  and consequently failed to develop into the player he could have been as a result.

    We may as well recruit him in 2021 for nothing and get some closure.

    • 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?
