    Twice (that I have seen) already tonight Reiwoldt at very least "shows dissent" without penalty.

    Have the AFL ever admitted that how they managed to preseason M V Carlton game was over zealous?  I guess they rarely admit they stuff things up.

    I’d rather our “learnings” from this is in a nothing game and let everyone one else learn in season proper

    Dogs now 6.14 to Toigs 9.4

    That is 20 scoring shots to 13.  

    Could well cost them big time.

    A stacked midfield will only get you so far, dogs should be looking to trade out some mids for key position players

    Gotta love watch Pruessy. Copped a late hit during a marking contest. Did the old 80’s throw of the elbow after. 

    from an initial view that’ll be two weeks

    Agreed. Bont for Weideman.

    Naitanui had Dean Cox early in his career too...

    Didn't help as he never learnt how to play footy, where to position.   IN the early days they always had a mic in his ear at training  to try and teach him.  It like comparing Stynes and Naitanui in terms of game knowledge.   In saying that he is the nicest guy and has done really well out of his career.

    No better sight in footy than a torp goal on the siren. The friendly exchange between ump and Riewoldt beforehand just adds to the theatre. Suffer Dogs.

    Dogs have no heart. When things don’t go their way they rarely comeback

    funny that hogan plays against former clubs in consecutive weeks

    i didn't see the preuss hit - was watching the other game - but was it actually bad? high? deliberate? what level of impact?

    They rely on their mids to have a perfect game to win. Means it’s very easy for things to fall apart. 
    We saw what happened in the grand final when our midfield gained control. It was a disaster for the Dogs.

    Massive fail for the Dogs tonight.  Can they regroup with this list and this coach? Not likely IMO.

    Have a look at the afl fantasy points for this game. Show how pointless disposals are if you don't use the ball correctly.

    For a player who get so many accolades Caleb Daniels make a lot of costly mistakes.

    Bailey Dale as well.

    • 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?
