Should easily place in their top 5 in the Eagles B&F.

Prescient!

Good on him. was a good move for him even though he had to endure beltings every week. He would've been further down the pecking order whether the emergence of Mcvee ( or maybe we don't get mcvees season if hunt stayed) hunt will get another contract extension you'd think and not sure he would've at Melbourne

 

What a depressing Season that must have been for Hunty. 
Just like Jake Melksham, footy can be very cruel 

Jayden might have been a chance for a game up forward this coming Thursday but I agree that he did the right thing in his move West

I wouldn't recognise half of those players even if they did a dump on my front lawn. *That could be more of a reflection on me

He wasn’t given a choice 😢

But it was the right thing for MFC.  It’s always frustrating when a fan favourite falls outside the best 23.

Agreed. It was the right thing for the Club. But not for him. I was making the distinction because to say he did the right thing moving to the west implies he wanted to go and therefore made a choice to go.

Anyways, he’s gone, and of course everyone here wishes him well. Fourth in their B&F is an achievement of which to be proud. I just miss him ‘s all. 🙁

He will have a more enjoyable season next year. No way WC could be as bad as they were. 


Says a lot about MethCoast when Gaff and Witherden get in their top 10. Pleased for Hunt though, he has had a solid year.

Check our Top 10 B and F from ten years ago. Worse than West Coast I would think.

 

  Nathan Jones  
  Colin Garland  
  Dean Terlich  
  Matt Jones  
  Colin Sylvia  
  Lynden Dunn  
  James Frawley  
  Jack Trengove  
  Jeremy Howe  
  Tom McDonald  

Who’s Dean Terlich? Never heard of him lol.

Stoked for Hunty though, do miss him but glad he’s valued out West.

Most of those names were good players, but Dean Terlich!!! He was seriously one of the least game aware players you have ever seen. 

But Col Sylvia is the sad one. Apart from his early passing, he had every football attribute you could ask for. Possibly the most wasted talent ever at MFC. Absolute gun who couldn't give everything he had to training and playing. O for what could have been!

Col had the power and talent of trac and a better kick for goal. Just never got the best out of himself for many reasons.

One of my favs even if somewhat inconsistent.

Keep in mind he was a big part of our drought breaking premiership year until injured.

In the statistical player ratings i keep he finished 14th that seaso, well inside the top 22.

He then dropped 14 places in 2022 to finish the season in 28th.  If only he was able to follow up his VG 21 season.

Still think we needed to keep one of him or Bedford, or even both.

I’m sure she does Sam. I wonder who Alan will be barracking for Thurs night. He was Pies before JH was drafted. I suspect he’s reverted.

Hopefully he hasn't gone back to the dark side. If he has maybe a an exorcism is needed.

Where else was he gonna go? My point is he didn’t wanna leave us.

Well done Jayden. Based on this glad we didn’t get Gaff!

I’m frankly shocked he didn’t have more suitors. He was one ankle injury away from being a premiership player. 
Essendon for one would have been a good fit. Not that Essendon is better than West Coast… at least he gets good weather in Perth 😂

Very true words. He could beat any opponent with speed and talent. Sadly missed.

  • 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?
