It’s interesting that they’re trying Bradke down back. He looks like a very lost baby giraffe down there but maybe they’ve decided he has no future as a first ruck?

    Quarter Time: Casey dominated the play but the Tigers flooded back and we’re able  to keep the scoring down after the Demons initial 3 goal surge.

    Perhaps a fletcher type project!

    Weideman is a far better player when in ruck and up the ground. Just does hold chances when playing at full forward.

    just catching up - nearly at quarter time - but i'd say bradtke looks pretty okay behind the ball?

    bowey looks a ripper, melksham is everywhere around the pill, and weideman is miles better moving up out of the 50 rather than being an i50 target - you definitely can imagine that they presumed it was going to be weed / sideshow in the forward structure for the mfc before t mac's 'good to see you're not wasting your career anymore' comeback in 2021

    declase looks very promising

    Quarter time summary
    Bowey - smart and clean with disposal
    Melk - some good touches 
    Weid - no real impact
    AVB - hardly sighted
    Jetta - head knock went off
    Daw - Competing well in ruck
    Chandler - One goal not much else
    Baker - looking ok on wing
    Smith - couple of good spoils and a nice mark
    Bedford - cant get into game

    Casey 20 to 8 inside 50s Werribee flooding back scrappy game

    Weideman poor with second efforts.

    Casey’s goal kicking as good as Melbourne’s.

    ? Sparrow on the ball? He’s been unlucky this year that he’s had a free run without injury but cannot crack a consistent game.  Probably been medi-sub for 4-5 games.

    I am finding this very hard to watch. Very messy in forward line.

    Yep and Jackson is way better at playing that role so it’s hard seeing him get back in unless some injuries hit

    • 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?
