    Yep sure does so we win the midfield battle and should score enough to win. Feeling good about this one and one of only 14% that have picked the Dees

    Should also add that Bytel who has been dropped played alright last week and King/Jones will be rusty in first real game back.

    We play a fast StKilda side. Jones and Jetta.

    Jetta will be fine, Jones always worries me but hey no one’s knocking the door down to replace him

    Maybe RIT but I think that our emergencies are starting to provide some excellent options should any one fail to fire in their role.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Paul Hunter....  never heard of the St kilda ruckman before (doesn't mean hes no good of course).   Max was well down on his best last week and would be looking to dominate this one.

    Add Viney to those two.

    I will assume from that comment you think Viney is a tad slow. Maybe watch him a bit

    If the the injury sub comes from emergencies, who will it be?

    Probably depends who gets injured..?? 

    On another note, I can see our backline keeping St Kilda goalless for the entire game.

    They have to nominate the injury sub before the game. 

    An earlier poster stated, before the emergencies were even named, that it would be Baker.

    Congrats to Steven May on 150 games.

    Hope you play a blinder like a repeat of the game in Alice last year and drag us over the line.

    FYI - I’m the loud bastard on level 3 outer wing conveying the same message

    Selection pretty much as expected. It would have been interesting to see who would have been dropped if Harmes was not injured.

    Good luck to May on his 150th milestone, Hope he has 150 more high class games for the Dees.

    Must admit, that Saints team hardly strikes fear on paper in terms of names. But as usual, they have a lot of run and speed.

    • 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.

      The Demons return to the MCG to take on the High Flying Hawks on Saturday Afternoon. Hawthorn will be aiming to consolidate a position in the Top 4 whilst the Dees will be looking to take a scalp and make it four wins in a row. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • 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?
