    Brown while not “fast” was in 3 contests that started at the back flank before marking and goaling then… nice.

    We are trying to do way too much, trying to break all the tackles and do the selfish crap. 
     

    Swans swarm us and we then turn it over. 
    Gotta get back to team first.

    Centre clearances are a big issue. We won’t win this game if we can’t start controlling the play thru there. 
    Sydney is loving this rolling zone rubbish. Whenever we broke free of them off the back we scored.

    Any chance we could man up on these swans

    Good call.

    Swans double the clearances and their tackles actually stuck.

    We are slow again and need to remember this isnt North.

    Gus and Anb need a rocket up them. And whats going on with Max.

    Geez Harmes just loves to stand in those tackles but then does nothing with it 

    Swans are all around the ball 

    Lucky we're kicking straight. Makes a huge difference.

    I’m more stressed after that first quarter than I have been for past few weeks. Enough swearing and shouting to send the dog retreating to the bedroom. ?

    • 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.
