    Gawn had a poor game by his standards but not sure Goldy had much to do with it. He just looked off from the start.

    Using what metric?  Gawn had more hitouts, disposals, marks and less time on the ball.

    Champion player, Gawn. Less dominant than usual today, against a player who who usually does well on him. But to say he was 'slaughtered' is ludicrous.

    Kozzi. Deserved votes just for his run and pressure. Goals a bonus.

    Jackson.  Max was down the kid lifted as required

    Oliver. Lifted when we needed him most

    Frtisch   Terrific forward game. An opportunist.

    Petracca . Not his best but produced important muscle work to create clearances.

    Salem  (Langdon and May stiff)

    He has set an incredible standard.

    His work out of contests was as good as ever but he didn't use the ball well at all.

    It was great to see our 2019 draft crop turn the game in our favour today. In future, we may look at that draft as a pivotal moment for the club.

    He was also our only midfielder to get his hands on it in the 1st half.

    Goldy gets in Gawns head somehow I reckon. Every time Gawn talks about good ruckmen he always throws Goldstein's name in there as just about the best he's played. Whether it's true or not, Gawn obviously believes it, and doesn't dominate like he usually does as a result.

    Yeah, not sure about that.  Last game in 2019 Gawn absolutely pantsed Goldy - 3 goals and 3 Brownlow votes.  They didn't play each other last year.  I think it was 2016 when Gawn polled 2 Brownlow votes and had 60+ hitouts against Goldy.  Goldy did kick 5 that day and got the 3 but it was an epic duel.  I reckon Max was just off today.  Goldy hardly had a stellar impact on the game, with a 19 year old kid jumping all over him.

    Max just had an off day. He dropped marks and fumbled the ball around the ground as well.

    Hey Chook, you’ve got all three 2019 draft picks in there. That’s great!

    • 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.
