Gawn - an amazing return

Viney - 4 solid quarters 

Grundy - was almost important 

May - better second half

Lever - not always convincing 

Bowey - has been better

Rivers - a  solid game

McVee - was seemingly overawed 

Hibberd- some vital tackles

Langdon - better second half

Brayshaw - often careless disposals 

Hunter - some important touches

Oliver - eventually got going

Petracca - not as explosive 

van Rooyen - incredible last quarter

Sparrow - impressive tagging game

 Neal-Bullen - played his role

Pickett - another disappointing game

Chandler - took his chances

Jordon - a workmanlike performance 

Petty - needed in defense 

Fritsch - had little involvement

    Heck, the match I watched I thought McVee had a better than average game and certainly held his own.

    joeboy must’ve been a jam at the ‘G after the final siren glad you’ve successfully negotiated the traffic /public transport imbroglio to get home.

    Mostly in concordance with your player analysis except you’re too kind to Steven May and too harsh on Angus Brayshaw*. And Judd McVee looks to be fairly cool under pressure.

    I didn’t give him my votes but don’t underestimate Judd McVee’s contribution today.

    Some crucial touches when the game was in the balance.

    Lever - multiple brain farts

    Chandler - what a beauty

    Viney - full beast mode

    That’s all I’ve got. Lucky the family were home last night otherwise I’d be buying a new TV today 🤣

    I think the anti May analysis of this game is a bit tough. From watching the replay, I noticed that Riewoldt was a long way away from May in some of his goals...I thought May was solid.

    That is the problem Mon Our No 1 was AWAY from Jack. His job too scrap/ scrap and spoil and punch away and put body on body. Ie No pressure from Steve on Jack.

    Thought Steve's last quarter was positive and Jake also improved.

    Just saying, but Laurie in 7 minutes, had half the number of possessions of Kozzie for his full game.

    Seen May play much better footy. Set a very high standard in recent seasons with two All-Australian blazers. Agree his last quarter was more solid but Riewoldt and Co had physically dropped off. 

    At this stage of the season there is plenty of room for improvement, amongst the individuals who make up the team including Steven May.

    Angus Brayshaw is the type of footballer most coaches and players love to have in their sides. Courageous, combative and committed to the team success. Over his career he has provided that in spades. From overcoming earlier serious concussion issues, to running a close third to a surprise Brownlow medal. To the pure grit and determination of his Grand Final performance in Perth in '21. Where he was flying the flag deep into the Doggies' second into third quarter momentum swing.

    His recent performances continue to to show that determination and resolve by accounting for Jake Stringer against Essendon despite the loss. I thought his performance against Richmond was similarly praiseworthy, absorbing considerable physical pressure, but continuing to repulse Tiger forward forays as the game tightened up. Whilst still being able to deliver quality ball by hand or foot to a team mate.

    Agree, but check your word count 😀

    • 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?
