The club has put a video up on Salem bumping Gray as the fierce moment of the week.

Did anyone rate this play?

It was highlighted on Fox Footy as Gray covered 9.7m to get to the ball while Salem was 3.9m away yet Gray gets to the ball first. Amazing play by Gray but I find it strange that we are highlighting this bit of play.

What else is there to highlight?

We were that poor I would rather they didn't have one than put forward an unwarranted effort.

 

Let's just enjoy these Jaguar Fierce moments of the week as I don't envisage them returning next year

There would have been a few fierce moments in lounge rooms last night.  It's a shame they can't highlight those instead.

Was it really though? 

I get the whole "still putting his body on the line when the game was already over" thing, but who kept their feet and came away with the ball after the collision?  Salem. 

Gray was down on the ground winded.

Yes, if you listen to Ken Hinkley and look at the intent throughout the game and the result. They wanted it more than us and that's not usually the reason we lose but last night it clearly was.

 

It’s a joke right. Salem takes short steps and Gray goes hard. 
 

By the way, the video - Melbournes goals - is Only 1 minute 15 seconds. That’s how poor it was.

For a while last night I thought they'd have to release an "All the Goal" video this week.

Maybe we can have a different sponsor next year.

Kleenex or quilton - 10 softest moments.

Depends - 10 crap your dacks moments with the best hospital passes to a team mate.

Endless possibilities 

I think Lockart's attack on the ball in the first quarter was a lot more fierce.

  • 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.
