    Harmes needs to go. 

    Jetta and Jones did pretty well.

    Hunt should feel nervous with Hibberd now fit.

    Rivers had a shocker but keep.

    Harmes was woeful. Disposal appalling. Sparrow didn’t do enough. 
     

    Depending on fitness Viney, Melksham and Hibbo will all push their claim.

    Harmes out please, lazy lazy game

    Goody put harmes as a Fyffe tag in the last 10 minutes. He was ok but if he doesn't tag he's out. James jordan embarrassed a few out there today.

    Doubt you can play Jetta and Hibberd in the same side. Even if they both have more ability than Hunt. 

    Melksham and Viney - both needed in the 22 at their best, both ordinary if they aren’t on. Sparrow and Jones the most likely outs I guess? 
     

    Harmes had some stinking moments but I feel like our midfield covers the ground far better with him in there. 

    Also want to give Chandler a chance sooner rather than later. He has some class. Can we play him on the wing?

    I only knew Fyfe was playing when he was giving away free kicks (paid or not paid)

    Who’s moving to half back in that scenario? Melksham?

    On balance No changes for mine

    They'll be better for the run

    Give the boys who got the job done a chance to do it again

    I thought most did their part today .

    However, Viney must come in if fit.  Milshake will also probably get a gig.

    I thought Hunt was ordinary today. I know he has pace but it's not much use if he doesn't get a hold of the pill and breakaway or lay some rundown tackles. Can't recall Sparrow doing much either.

    JOnes and Jetta will not and should not be dropped. Jetta won a lot of 1:1s today and was very solid down Back

    Sparrow, Jones and Hunt the clear three contenders to make room for any potential inclusions IMO. Harmes wasn't fantastic but I don't think he was anywhere near as bad as people are suggesting. 

    If fit, I'd consider Viney and Melksham for Sparrow and Jones. Hibberd could maybe take Hunt's spot. Yes there's a speed loss there, but Hunt made so many mistakes today it might still be a net win.

    • 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?
