Obviously any selection is only a guess at this time of year ...... but to leave Max out ..... stupidity.

I reckon the practice game he played against Carlton was off the the planet and Brownlow votes worthy.

Not a bad start to the season.

    Sam Walsh is set to miss the first 4 games of the season. Limited preseason and a tricky injury to recover from i think he will struggle to make AA selection. Class player though

    The definition of a slow news day.

    4 Lions and 2 Dogs in the team. King must think the Lions are going to try to challenge us for the flag.

    Max not in because Jacko will get more game time?

    Pendlebury - are you serious?

    Pendlebury will be a weapon off halfback.

    Mind-numbing rubbish. So many things to complain about in this selection but I’ll just mention one: why does everyone rate Jeremy Cameron so high? Yes he could once play but what has he done for two seasons now?

    He must want publicity for not picking Gawn.

    The All Australian captain, premiership captain, hero who kicked a goal after the siren to win his team the minor premiership and tallest player ever to kick 5 goals in a final.

    Seriously, who cares? 

    Also, one year, if Jackson is as good as I think he is, Gawn will be eclipsed and will move off to the undying lands…

    … the forward pocket next to Fritsch.

    Glad someone rates Salem. No Gawn is trash of course.

    Am I the only one perplexed by Butters instead of Fritsch?

    Gawn out is madness! I also expect BBB to kick 70 plus goals and play FF in this team

    I don't even think Darcy is the best young ruckman going around, i genuinely don't understand the hype, he's looked good against average opposition, but been belted by the Gawn's and Nic Nats of the world.

    2 Positions that stuck out to me were Amon on the wing and Naughton at FF.  LOL.

    Football commentator makes prediction...

    Supporters outraged.... more clicks on website.... more advertising... football commentator given pat on back by boss for creating website traffic... football commentator makes more crazy prediction... more supporter outrage...

    I think I see a pattern.

    Good thoughts Jontee.

    I think your'e on to something re: Max and if true that's Ok,  but Pendelbury is laughable.

    Naughton's underwhelming GF performance soundly beaten by My questions King's 'Insights".  So thus they are predictions which is what the game is al about anyway.  He does love salem so credit there that he's consistent in his selection for that position and recognises him in his team.  Last year he felt Salem was the key to the Dees and oppos needed a plan for him.

    But great article for clickbait and King to remain relevant. I can just hear him quoting Champion data as justification.

    Why no Steven May? Is it because of hammy injuries?

    If that is so, there are plenty in that team with injury concerns

    I have no issues with Max being excluded. Jackson should take time from him, and Darcy is a beast.

    The biggest problem with King’s team is he’s named 5 defenders, a ruck and 2 forwards and flooded the rest of the side with on ballers. Even Amon isn’t a full time winger anymore.

    If you wanted to pick the best 14 midfielders just write a list of them. Don’t hide it in a team.

    Sad part is that's normally how the AA team goes. Big blokes who look like Tarzan play like Jane, a token small forward, best 2 full backs for the year and midfielders 

     

    For the record I think David King can have whomever he wants in he's PREDICTED AA team. The top 50 players list are blowing my mind. Dusty Martin and Nat Fyfe are shadows of their former selves and are constantly rated top 10 players, players like Walsh, Touk Miller and Parish destroy games all year and are ignored 🤷🏽‍♂️

    • 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?
