    Well I stand corrected. This is why I’ll need to think about it.

    Yeah. Stand by your thought that the leading tackler on the ground can’t lay a tackle. Good lad.

    I said I stood corrected on his tackling stats at that point P-Man. His second half tackling has also been very good.

    I stand by my thoughts he isn’t up to it and adds very little.

    Instead of attempting to belittle me, enlighten me on his upside?

    Oh many pardons. Am I belittling you? I‘m terribly sorry. 

    Please return to your zealousness to sink the boot in. I’ll stop hurting your feelings.

    Not sure where the so called hurt feelings come into it, but thanks for the pompous reply.

    Now as per my previous post, please let me know your thoughts on JKH’s positive future at the Melbourne Football Club.

    Why did you ignore half his post? What is JKH's upside?

    I don't see it either. But I think he gives it a real go. I'm just not sure he's fast enough to lock down a position.

    I thought he did alright today. Finished with plenty of tackles and looks hungry for the ball

     

    Has definitely improved since his last game

    Did enough in last qtr to keep his spot. Tackle count good. We need guys who hunt down tackles

    He tackled strongly and he was quite neat with the ball at times and quick to release.  Had some poor moments but worth another chance.  Probably playing in a position not suited to him as well (wing).

    yes i think its a bit premature to start calling for his delisting. his first game in a while and he did a lot better than some others. Showed a little give him a little more time, he could be pretty handy.

    First half was soft as always.

    Got in some late game tackles.

    Is and always will be depth.

    Worked his way into the game

    Agree,  and with 9 tackles he's earnt another crack despite the slow start .

    In for another week of the key to getting a game is being a competitor.

    His job shouldn't be to get 40 touches. That's what we have Clarry and Gus for. If he gets blokes thinking twice when taking their time to size to their options, then keep him in.

    Did a great kick to Hogan for a goal. 8 tackles Give him some credit

    • 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?
