Everything Dunstan touches is turning sour. Very much a downgrade on Viney.

    Excellent umpiring decision to pay a free and a 50 for the push and then slow pass back. 

    Rivers is becoming a goalkicking defender wtf?

    Agree RE the umpiring decisions there and about Rivers. It's been a while since we've had goal kicking defenders and midfielders.

     

    The main thing I love about about this team is even when teams bring their best heat, they still can’t score. North’s absolute best, which they won’t be able to sustain, sees them 10 points behind and it should be more. 

    Loving that Gawn and TMac have gone the sleeves in the Narrm strip in addition to the usual suspects. Looks great.

    The coaches will sort out the clearance issues at qt

    Oh well. I'll take a 10 point lead at quarter time. I get that it's easy to make fun of NM but I expect every opponent to be competitive against us.

    Narrm FC has never lost a quarter!

    Did Lever cop a whack to the moosh in that push and shove?

    Totally. North couldn't play much better than this, and we're still impenetrable.

    Not a bad first quarter. Didn't expect much from North but they're having a go

    This game, like this ground, is trash. 
    Let’s get the 4 points, avoid injuries and move the hell on to bigger and more important things.

    God help us if the backline ever decided to take a day off

    But we're not 10,000 points up at quarter time against the bottom side! Lazy players don't care! Waaaa!

    Ignoring the fact that a team with nothing to lose are always going to give their absolute all. We don't need to smash them in the first quarter.

    • 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?
