Holding the [censored] ball on Motlop. A [censored] disgrace.

    Motlop dropped the ball. No free kick. Umpiring is pathetic trash.

    But also WAKE UP MELBOURNE! Don’t let them back in this.

    I don't like blaming the umps but they're keeping port in this. Motlop DROPPED the ball!

    Mind you, kicking straight to Alir is not smart footy. Brown was right behind him. Kick it a little higher, Jesus.

    Time to put JJ on Wines.  Viney looks pretty spent.  Lingers ...no need to panic on that kick.

    How was that not dropping the ball on Motlop?  He also threw the other one earlier two handed for the Wines' goal.

    Port player runs over the line under no pressure.  Not intentional.

    No rules for Port with ball in hand! Anything goes.

    Harmes bugs me so much. Ignored Petracca to kick straight to Alir. Stupid.

    Petty has been seriously good.

    He's from SA. amazing how ppl life lift playing at home

     

    What a great backline effort again. Petty again and again. May out muscling Dixon. Playing for each other.

    Oliver doing plenty, including getting back to support the defenders.

    Is wines playing?

    Jackson doing well, hard to match up on.

    Langdon again, good desire.

    Tracc finding the ball and space.

    Need more when we handball it, as we a missing the hit ups. Some great hands and clean footy from some.

    Generally, good effort by everyone, though a couple can still lift, Brayshaw, Spargo, ANB, Harmes, Gawn, Viney, Fritta. 

    Looks like we want it, and are in a good position to take it. 

    A few more unanswered goals and we take the crowd out of the game, till Ports second wind.

    Important quarter.

    Go Dees.

    • 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?
