    Yep I miss being with the Demon Army tonight. One kinda gets used to being surrounded by REAL fans. 
    I’d plumb forgotten how mean-spirited DL can be during a match. Shameful. 

    Dont come on here then. we may not be perfect but take the good with the bad.

    Is Salem doing the concussion protocol or not? 

    I really hope he isn't concussed because we need him next week against the pies

    Gawn needs to find a new set shot routine. That is just atrocious.

    Absolutely.  He just doesnt look like it at any stage from any position on the ground

    Melbourne-esque tonight.

    The coast to coast forward line entries are coming about from pressure, talk and structure, not hot dogging.

    Midfields defensive running and blocking the corridor has been a lot better tonight. Viney had a great first half, Trac and Gus good too. Clarry well held tonight but thankfully his mates are doing their bit.

    Someone seriously needs to work with max on his goal kicking. This could be costly in the finals.

    max is usually far better on the opposite side of the field kicking for goal, so that when he runs around he opens the angle, he ran around with his usual routine and closed down the angle. still it is wet

    Brayshaw has been fantastic tonight, weids has a goal hopefully he can add to that in the last and help us extend the lead further.

    These fumbles below the knees are killing us.

    Hibberd and Hunt had done plenty of them tonight.

    Might be doing the broken nose protocol. Reckon a bit of blood on Salo looks good

    This has been a different game style. We haven't played this "brand" for weeks. Great to see.

    They must've found their mojo 🤔

    If the middle is rock hard, why in gods name did the maggot throw the ball up?

    Petracca, Viney & Brayshaw - 70 touches all up

    That Brayshaw left foot hooked kick towards the boundary gaining 40 or 50 is an interesting ploy ... and it's worked 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.
