I believe he is/was injured during or after the Hawthorn game. Ankle. 
 

Should be back just in time to get picked ahead of Weid.

At FF for Casey.

Mind you, Brown was pretty handy in that last quarter against Hawthorn.  I do think it's a great reflection of the depth and/or perhaps the realitive health of our list that a guy comes into the side, kicks 2 goals and then gets dropped the next game.

He’s versatile and very handy as a - 30 year old - one year contract - key position player - who can come in when needed. Plan B. 

Calling @no plan b

it seems you’re wrong. It’s Mitch Brown

Amazing Mitch kicked 2 in a last quarter Demolition Vs Hawks after nothing in the first 3 quarters and is lauded like a Match winner.

BBB gets 2 fir the day ( nearly 3) a couple of score involvements and near marks  plenty and some Dees whinge  and want to drop him.

It's all about expectations isn't it !!!

Yeah, I do recall sitting there at the game thinking "it's about bloody time M Brown does something".  They were timely goals though which really broke the back of Hawthorn and at least he nailed his set shots.  That lead and mark for the second goal was a beautiful play all around which just made it look so easy, like shooting fish in a barrel.  Could do with more of those plays at the MFC!

completely ignoring the fact that Ben Brown had about 10 times the supply of Mitch. Mitch won the game, Ben Brown could have lost it with his dropped mark and sloppy free kick against. Not all 120 minutes are valued the same.

Yes BB very disappointing with all that silver service he was getting especially in the first half.

It was his first game back in the big time after multiple ops and was still serviceable ... what l know for sure is that the crummers know he won't get out marked often unlike weid who doesn't have his height and can get knocked off balance around the hips

  • 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?
