6. Gawn - great again against a very promising opponent. 8 marks, 18 possessions, 40 hit outs, all class

5. Petracca - 3 goals and 20 possessions, always a danger

4. Harmes - another workmanlike job.

3. Oliver - quiet in the second but otherwise a good game

2. Lever - disposal was shoddy but 9 marks

1. Salem - best of the rest probably

Petracca - easily bog for me. For the amount of opportunities he had it was a great game.

Bitterly sad to see a once in a generation ruckman carry this pathetic excuse of a footy side.

With the exception of these four, the remainder of the team either played a two sided game with two many flaws/turnovers or were completely shizen.  Some were a mile off AFL level tonight.  Unfortunately Oskar Baker was virtually unsighted with only three effective disposals, four turnovers and one miserly tackle.

Do people just automatically put Gawn as the best player? Not a huge influence in my opinion

Go back and have another look at the game.  18 disposals at 83% plus 8 marks as well as double digit hit outs to advantage and 40 hit outs in total against a very decent opponent.  He is carrying this side at the moment. The problem he has is that the benchmark he has set is now so ridiculously high that he needs to be twice as good as his opponent to be considered to have had an influence.  Imagine what last night would have looked like without him (you got a brief glimpse when Bruce kicked two of his goals playing in the ruck against Smith).

6 - Max

5 - Tracc

4 - Harmes

3 - Clayton

2 - Lever

1 - Frost

Without Frost & Lever we would have gone down by 60 points.................!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Every one of the above has played better games than they played last night and all made mistakes or were poor in patches, but in my view, they were still better the remaining 16 players.

  • 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?
