    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!

    • 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?

    • FEATURE: 1925

      A hundred years ago today, on 2 May 1925, Melbourne kicked off the new season with a 47 point victory over St Kilda to take top place on the VFL ladder after the opening round of the new season.  Top place was a relatively unknown position for the team then known as the “Fuchsias.” They had finished last in 1923 and rose by only one place in the following year although the final home and away round heralded a promise of things to come when they surprised the eventual premiers Essendon. That victory set the stage for more improvement and it came rapidly. In this series, I will tell the story of how the 1925 season unfolded for the Melbourne Football Club and how it made the VFL finals for the first time in a decade on the way to the ultimate triumph a year later.
