    That's all the tweets they've uploaded so far.

    Did mention towards the end that they don't expect to see Ben Brown play some sort of footy until about round 7.

    James Jordon also most likely to debut this weekend.

    DD36 thanks for all this, don’t get to listen to G and T,  

    does Max get help from , the coach or other ex captains,  or instructors who guide him through the early years of captaincy. 
    Not many AFL players are rocket scientists indeed some are barely articulate. They can play great footy perhaps but that does not automatically lead to the responsibility of leading a group of  players. 
    I know personally I can barely lead a horse to water.

    Hope the club provides some sort of structure for him.

    Come on Demons only a couple more sleeps

    and happy equinox. Couple of days yet

    Well that would ensure there will be an injury in Q4 or earlier if the coach wants to pull an underperforming player.   Doesn't Goodwin have enough to think about now without having to have another decision option.

    Very uninspiring TBH!! Hopefully his pre-game speeches have a better effect on the players?

    Who have been our rucking captains? Big Carl? Don Cordner. One of those two, probably Carl in this instance, could surely demonstrate some of the finer points of intimidation to Big Maxy?

    At least if Goody is on radio we don't have to watch his left hand scratching his left leg.

    This is just your MFCSS talking - I expect him to provide a target and allow out excellent midfield a more reliable option than they have had. If you want to make it easier on yourself by having subterranean expectations go for it - but reality does not promise such a pathetic return.

    Reality is you have no way of knowing and you can't resist making the most negative comments whenever you get half a chance.

    Reckon we will get more out of Ben Brown in 5 games than T-Mac in 18

    Correction... YOUR reality says his knee is a mess.  The removal of debris would suggest that the cause of his knee swelling has most likely been addressed.

    Can see the leg scratching even in a radio interview. Hope the players are more invested in him than I am.

     In the meantime next tv interview we should play the leg scratch drinking game

    • 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.
