I'd be shocked if the dog's DON'T try anything they can to stop Max. I agree with Leigh Matthews on SEN Saying if Max Gawn wins the Norm Smith, nothing the dogs do will matter, and i'd extend that to, if Max plays well, it's lights out for the dogs

    Don't know what the current bumping rule is not because they've changed it so often but originally you couldn't lay a bump unless the ball was within 5 metres 

    The won’t necessarily need bump him, just get in his way so he can’t run directly contest to contest. Have to think if it was that easy to stop Gawn everyone would do it, max already cops plenty of late hits every week he’s matured as a player and can play through it now

    That's what Libba proposed a few days ago. I hope the umpires read it because it is a free to block someone trying to get to a contest.

    Any WA Demonlanders need a ticket? My cousin in Queensland has one in the hopes that he would be able to go. Long story short he is selling it for face value. $456 (includes the handling fee). He is not looking to make money off it. He would prefer it go to a Demon. PM me your interest and I will get it for you.

    Be positive @Jaded

     

    As soon as the earthquake hit I knew we would win. The only insane thing left to experience in 2021 is a Melbourne premiership. In the bag guys.

    Disagree. Max could be BOG and we still lose. Need more than Max to play well. We could win with Max having an average game too.

    Not a big deal or omen, but Roco tipping Dees and Finey tipping Dogs on Footyology is a great sign. Finey is a hopeless tipper, and Roco is a measured and smart tipper. He knew the Dogs would win last week. Must be 20 ahead this year. Anyway, Go dees.

    My son drew this for my Father’s Day and I found it again today while looking for something else, which I think is a good omen. 
     

    I will take any good omen at this stage.

    Sorry if this has been covered...

    Does anyone know if Steven May trained fully?

    I'm getting nervous, worried that we're keeping up appearances, and no scans is a bad sign...

    Judging by some of the socials GYM our main session was completed a short time ago. 7 sport about to give us some news.

    News said he trained and is fit to play. 
    I highly doubt the media wouldn’t be all over it if he was not fully training or looked hampered. 
    He is a bigger chance to play than Keath I would say.

    If Spargo missed after twisting his ankle it would have to be the worst twisted ankle in the history of recorded medical science. 
    I once twisted my ankle wearing 9cm heels going down stairs and after a few shots I managed to dance on it for 6 hours.
    To be fair I would absolutely need a week off these days if I did anything for 6 hours straight that doesn’t involve lying down, but you know those were peak fitness days.

    I was only comparing them with one another, not in general. Would anyone in the media be in the upper echelons of 590k? And on a consistent basis year by year?

    • PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      With both sides precariously positioned ahead of the run home to the finals, only one team involved in Sunday’s clash at the Adelaide Oval between the Power and the Demons will remain a contender when it’s over.  On current form, that one team has to be Melbourne which narrowly missed out on defeating the competition’s power house Collingwood on King's Birthday and also recently overpowered both 2024 Grand Finalists. Conversely, Port Adelaide snapped out of a four-game losing streak with a win against the Giants in Canberra. Although they will be rejuvenated following that victory, their performances during that run of losses were sub par and resulted in some embarrassing blow out defeats.

      Round 14 is upon us and there's plenty at stake across the rest of the competition. As Melbourne heads to Adelaide, it's time to turn our attention to the other matches of the Round. Which teams are you tipping this week? And which results would be most favourable for the Demons’ finals tilt?

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

    • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Collingwood

      Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.
