    95% of all Ed Langdon mistakes take place as he's doing [insert thing here] over the boundary line.

    Ed having his worst game for the club.

    We look better with Jackson in the ruck and Gawn up forward.

    I think Gawn is getting in Brown’s way. 
    We need to isolate one in the goal square.

    How much will you all pay me to invent a Dermott Brereton mute button?

    I’ll pay you double if you invent a Dwayne Russell mute button as well.

    Poor effort tonight. Defensive pressure and blocking access to the corridor have been atrocious.

    Trac and Jackson have kept us in this. If we didn’t have so many injuries already there would be some poor performing players ripe for dropping.

    We just need to get the four points tonight and move on without anymore injuries.

    Suns giving a lot of cheek they are playing at their absolute best…I reckon we are going about 60%

    I will take the score line. Suns are good.

    I’d rather Riv and Gus weren’t now under injury clouds, we are running out of backmen fast

    Hunt having a mare. Needs to regroup and refocus

    Based on very small sample size, Carlton and GC will be the big improvers this year

    We are barely going and have at least 50% of the team who have given us less than nothing. 
    Fritta donuts, Harmes, Viney, Langdon putrid. Hunt shocking. Gawn needs to get going too. 

     

    Credit where credit is due, the suns are giving it everything and pushing us. The key for them will be maintaining this intensity whilst cleaning up their disposals and decision making.

    Trac, Oliver and Jackson look too much for them to handle though.

    • 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?
