This group has already been special to watch, but it's scary to think just how much they will contribute as they continue to develop!

This is going to be one hell of an era! ??

    Petracca has had a bit of flak thrown his way on DL this year.  This caught my eye in the article: 

    "Only Brownlow medallists Dustin Martin and Patrick Dangerfield averaged at least 25 disposals, one goal and 1.5 score assists per game in the home and away season.  Petracca's respective numbers this year are 20.4, 0.9 and 1.4, which are bumped up to 21.1, one and 2.1 since round 16".

    He is pretty good company! 

    With Brayshaw and Oliver starring they have taken the limelight off Petracca a bit allowing him to put together a string of games in the second half of 2017 without too much fanfare. 

    I can't help but think our youthful Holy Trinity (average age 21) will quash their aging trio with average age of 31!

    I thought the same thing reading that this morning. Trac has gone about things nicely in the second half of this year, and the trio is real old guard/new guard stuff tonight. Imagine what this trio can do over a decade together!?

    It's funny how easy it is to miss these things.

    You forgot Harmes!!!!  It will be Harmes v Dangerfield I suspect....he's been in the best form for them and he's possibly a bit quick for Jack.

    What a great and classic movie scene, amazing acting and costumes, looks at least as good as Avengers Infinity Wars too.

    I mentioned this in the Petracca thread and also compared him to De Goey. He's having a fine season.

    • 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.
