Can’t we just have an awards night without Dusty? Not a forward pocket at all, undeserved selection once again.

    Was Luke 'I can't imagine an AA team without Joel Selwood' Darcy a judge again? Or Ling..

    Will be surprised if they go with 2 rucks. Think Max misses, as will Clarry

    Yeah thinking Max will miss out now. Bench will be stacked with mids and maybe Butler. 

    Well this aged well, Andy ?

    Well done Max and Tracc. Given NicNat only plays about 65% game time, makes sense to play the second ruck!

    I love Max Gawn. I think he's an absolutely brilliant ruckman and a terrific ambassador for the club.

    But he shouldn't have been in the squad for this season, let alone the final 22. He really needs to "do a Luke Beveridge" and donate that jacket to Steven May.

    Impressive from Caleb Daniel. Dogs have a decent list, better than ours I'd venture (more depth).

    Both Dangerfield and Bont named at half forwards..

    Dangerfield = 11 goals

    Bont = 11 goals.

    Meanwhile true forward specialists players in Papley and Butler miss out...

    Papley = 26 goals.

    Butler = 27 goals.

    Worst AA side ever!

    No matter how you look at it, there's a bit of history in Max's accomplishment tonight.

    With four selections now under his belt, Max Gawn has overtaken his numbersake, Jimmy Stynes, as the most AA selected player in MFC history.

    He’ll be in there. I’ll be ropeable if he isn’t named on the ground. 

    Max will probably be on the bench. 

    Clarry will miss out. 

    Nailed it.

    Max is the third Melbourne player to make the AA team after finishing 6th in the club B&F after Adem Yze in 2002 and Michael Hibberd in 2017. Just goes to show how different people see it.  Consistently different by the look of it.

    That would be Barassi and Garry Lyon

    well done  big Max .The posters expectations of you are ridiculously high. you deserved the 3 previous inclusions and you deserved this one as well .Nic Nat had a great year but  you are still the best ruck in the competition

    May out of this side is a massive blunder. albeit having 3 AAs for non finals teams is a not a good look.
     

    Ling needs to be pulled off the selection panel. Geelong are always over represented and Danger gets a free ride. Guthrie on the wing. Seriously?

    Apologies! Clearly a MFC history lesson is in order.

    Reckon I’d take the Bont on the HF line over Butler. His second half if the year was poor

    Papley was the best small forward this year

    • PREGAME: Western Bulldogs

      With only 3 games to go, all against Top 8 fancies, the Demons face a daunting task as they return to the MCG when they play the Western Bulldogs. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      The Demons return to town fresh off a thumping win over the back-to-back wooden spooners, the West Coast Eagles, played in front of a sparse crowd at Marvel Stadium, the same venue that hosted last week's heartbreaking loss.

    • PREVIEW: West Coast

      It was bad enough that the Melbourne Football Club created yet another humiliating scenario inside its wretched season at Marvel Stadium last Sunday, but the final insult is that it has been commanded to return to the scene of the crime to inflict further punishment on its fans this week. Incidentally, if this match preview, of a game that promises to be one of the most unattractive fixtures in the history of the game, happens to cut out of your computer screen three quarters of the way through, it’s no coincidence. I’ll be mirroring the Demons’ lacklustre effort against St Kilda from last Sunday when they conceded the largest last quarter turnaround for victory in the history of the game.

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.
