Monday game against the Bulldogs - 2:30 pm 

Any information/team listings for this practice match? Hard to find material to preview and consider. Any salient advice would be welcome.

    Just word of mouth from a golfing friend - was not sure whether it was on or not. Hard to gather info over here in SA if you are not a Crows or Port fan.

    Disappointing that the VFL guys will play tomorrow morning so it might be hard for the emergencies or 23-26 to get a full hit out. Not sure how we will manage the game time. Most clubs so far have subbed in 23/24 sometime around the half and given 25/26 a run in the last.
     

    Certain players might be in the VFL side to get a full run rather than being the sub players in the main game.

    Anyone heading to Whitten oval for the early game? Might just make the trip to see Gus and a few others run around.

    I might go for a look, then head back to Marvel afterwards. Make a day of it.

    I'd rather go and be disappointed, than not go at all and maybe miss the only opportunity to go to live game all year. 

    This time last year I went to practise match v North at Arden, followed by All Stars game at Marvel.

    We all know what happened after that... ?

    So yeah, while I can go I will!

    Fine Dubdee was just suggesting it could be horrible. Actually think we will win both.

    • 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.
