    No change. 

    Smith hangs in

    no room for Jordon, Hunt, Hibbo, Melksham or Jonesy   

    Special comments. 
    Bowey. Struggled early then stepped up and looked more assured after half time. 
    Sparrow.  One of our best.  Looked comfortable and hard at it. 
    Rivers.  Early mistakes but really hard at it and loved the tackles and smothers.

    If Hunt is fit, then Hunt in Smith out.

    Need to at least consider tmac.

    Have been his biggest fan but his last nine games he has kicked  six goals and returned to the player he was last year.

    Credit due to his other 11 games but this is the flag at stake and hes hit a long slump going into and including finals.

    Do we have options?

    Maybe not. Its a concern though. He didnt go near it today. I know he had two weeks off but do we keep going with him. Hard call.

    If Hunt is fit he should replace Smith. If he's not fit then no change

    Smith might be in trouble given his opponent kicked 5 on him.

    Who plays on Toby Greene if GWS get through to the prelim?

    Actually, his opponent kicked 3 on Salem in one quarter, and 2 on Smith for the rest of the game.

    I guess it may depend upon just what role the match committee / coach had for TMc tonight  

    Was it to make a complete fool of Andrews?  If so he did a fantastic job.

    This thread is just too premature.

    Two weeks rest. Let’s savour this win.

    I don't think Toby will be playing.

    • 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?
