Time to slow play tempo for the last 5 minutes and maintain possession/ prevent some cheap doggy goals in ice time

    Petty looks not totally lost up forward. Goal kicking already better than most of his teammates.

    Petracca showing some leadership

    His first halfs are getting better.  Needs to finish the 2nd bit strongly

    Imagine how dominant we would be if we had connection and work rate! 

    Rediculous, laughable free against Max

    "That's ruck-craft big boy"

    Where did this umpire come from? Does he actually understand the game? As Max said, that is what is called ruckwork. Nuff nuffs.

    The game of football is screwed. That decision against Max was evil.

    Usual umpiring gifting an easy goal that wasnt there to keep the home fires burning

    I keep on saying it... Umpiring in the AFL is actually laughable. They are pathetic [censored] weak no hopers who couldn't get a kick when they were a kid and take out their pent up frustrations on the guys that could....

    • 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?
