    Joel winning the Stynes award partly for his Auskick work which is a paid gig to skirt the salary cap.

    If he loses by a vote this game will be heavily discussed. Mihocek had just an average forward game.

    Incorrect. Cox became influential when Gawn went off. Oliver had 43 touches and a goal for Christ’s sake. That is a performance neither Cox nor Mihocek could ever replicate.

    Reminds me of that ad 'Mate, did you get a head knock on the weekend?'

    And the last forward to kick 4 goals in a game and get 3 Brownlow votes ahead of a dominant midfielder performance is who?

    A ruckman or key forward is highly unlikely to have 43 touches, you are correct. But Oliver was wasteful with the ball and turned it over or hot potatoed it to team mates, it wasn’t his best game. Cox was a monster behind the ball and forward. That Gawn was dealing with a nasty injury is irrelevant. Gun Midfielders get 30 every week. 40 is impressive but means little by itself. Tom Mitchell has had 40 multiple times with little impact

    Oliver had 6 turnovers from 43 disposals that day.

    Cox had 7 turnovers from 21 disposals.

    The umpires are the worst possible judges for awards like this.

    • 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?
