    I must admit I was judging all you biased fools who thought there was nothing in it on Sunday. I thought it was clearly a week. I’ll let myself out.

    Great news. A few on here seemed to want Frittata suspended. Fail.

    he did genuinely do damage 

    Not much damage as the North player returned to the field and played out the match after it was deemed by their medical staff that a concussion test was not warranted.

    I think what has got him off is precedence rather than it being the “right thing”. I actually personally think high fend offs should be something really looked at but in this case they have judged him against what has been done in recent times which is fair. Can’t have one rule for one club and another rule for another club.

    I actually also think they should make a rule that says repeated infringements that get you a fine will automatically give you a one week suspension. This obviously doesn’t apply to Fritta but there are snipers out there that just seem to constantly skirt the edges of suspensions. 

    Right now just happy to have Fritta back in the team!

    Told ya! Anderson pointed out quite early that Fritsch's elbow was helped upwards when it met Powell's elbow: Fritsch had no intention to hurt him.

    Yep. Was always worth challenging 

    Well done MFC. We just learnt to put a line in the sand. 
    Many people will disagree with this decision 

    But we may win our 8th game for the year. 
     

    Their was no concussion, both players can play next weekend

    • 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?
