Cannot be serious.

Thought both TMac and Weid were good and we won by 11 goals.

Ben can win back his spot just like everyone else.

    Weid out, Brown in.
     

    No  question. There was a moment during the last quarter where he was in spitting distance of a giant who had the ball. Weid just stood there for a couple of seconds before you actually saw the cog turn in his brain that he should try to impact the ball carrier. 
    McDonald would have smothered without even thinking, and that’s why he stays in the side.

    Weed did a pretty good job, though still dropped too many that he got to, but BBBB surely is a given.

    Otherwise absolutely no change (barring injury)

    I don’t recall him ever losing it based on his form. 
    His three finals last year speak volumes (and the rest of his career).
    His inclusion immediately makes us a better side. 
    If either of Tmac’s or Weid’s performance tonight was good enough to keep Brown out I must be watching a different game. 

    Brown will come back in just as Petty did this week.

    He very well might, and I won't be sad if he does.

    Just my opinion that after a win like that I wouldn't be making any 'automatic' changes.

    In, BBB. 

    Out, I really don't know. Probably Weed.

    We might need to keep an eye on Lever's fitness.

    IN: Sideshow Bob

    OUT: Weed

    Toss of the coin between Weed and Plugger Mac but the latter is SO CLOSE to 200 games and is no better / worse than the former at this stage

    Weed competed well tonight but he is in no way as dangerous as Ben Brown. 

    Exactly.  Huge match up problem for tiges.

    Goodwin has showed sentiment doesn't count. Brown is a class above weid and will be picked.

    Brown for Weiderman

    Brown in. 

    Trac looked to be labouring tonight. I think those whispers are true. 

    Lever didn't look right by the end.

    Tomlinson, Dunstan. 

    It doesn't really matter. We'll keep winning whoever is in or out.

    It'll be Ben Brown for T Mac. 

    Pin this post. 

    Tmac hasn't fired a shot for too long now and Weed deserves another crack after tonight.

    • 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.
