    He started in the centre and had 1 possession to halftime I think.

    He started on ball. At the opening bounce he was in the middle.

    He did nothing the entire first half.

    So he didn't get a touch at the opening bounce...you think he was in the midfield for the entire first half?

    I reckon we started to get the mix right as the game went on.

    Brayshaw is an integral part of that mix if we're going to be successful.

    6. Clarrie - back yourself son and you will be elite as shown tonight 

    5. May - awesome down back never looked in trouble 

    4. Viney - set the tone in the first and was good throughout 

    3. Lever - along with May controlled the backhalf although some strange decisions to punch when he could have marked but very good overall 

    2. Trac - nearly set the game alight on several occasions and showed some real class at times

    1. Weid/Jacko - loved their work together in bringing the ball to ground and second efforts at ground level

    The response was in relation to the earlier post, which was wildly wrong and impugned the coaching group, not a comment on the efficacy of Brayshaw.

    I agree with the sentiment of the earlier post.

    I don't think the coaching group have handled him well at all.

    I think we have had the mix in the midfield all wrong.

    Tonight was better but as a group they can work a lot better yet.

    There's a lot of premature love (and hope) for Jackson!

    There's good reason for that 'Fanatique'...he's a beauty.

    Yeah the sentiment was good, it just reeked of ignorance factually.

    Unbelievable game by Oliver - it was everything we had been hoping for since his debut and shows that both he and Goody have finally understood what so many have said on DL and other places. That was the most elite game we have seen by anybody at this club for a long, long time.

    6 - Oliver - trade bait? ?

    5 - Viney - having a very good year

    4 - May - love his physicality and leadership down back

    3 - Petracca - not quite, but still good

    2 - Harmes - thought he was good, in the first half especially

    1 - Jackson - doing a great job for a young fella

    Special mention to the Weed, Harmsey's first quarter and Brayshaw's last.

    Closely followed by Lever. Brayshaw gets the Encouragement Award. His last quarter was vintage and hopefully he can continue on from there.

    Apologies to Lever. 
     

    Salem was ok but not in my best.  He still didn’t use the footy to a huge advantage. 15 metre kicks are soft targets for a bloke with his talent. He can lift and show us what he is really capable of.

    • 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?
