Just been told Taj Woewodin will debut this week. Unbelievable moment for the club and his family. Our first father son since Billy Stretch IIRC? And our first son of a Melbourne Brownlow medallist to play for the club.

    wow! thats big news if true. Congrats to him and his proud dad Shane. Tbh though I haven't really taken him in that much. At a glance he doesn't seem to overly quick or have any one wood I can easily see. Anyone want to bring me more fully up to date on what he may bring? Big tank? hard at the ball?

    What's the general consensus for how many more losses can the club have before "Is Goodwin the Right Guy" is back at number one on the thread list?

    This is fantastic news!

    To hear the Woewodin name streaming down the field will be heart warming.

    I think his dad didn’t have any particular skills, but recognised that and trained and worked to make the absolute best of what he had. It sounds like his son is the same.

    Some folk are champing at the bit to resurrect that horrid thread after only one loss. Or even before the final siren when a loss is inevitable.

    Go for it! I won’t be around to see such rubbish. I’ll bid y’all a fond farewell if Andy lets it see the light of day. I’ll leave you to revel in nastiness. 👍🏽

    Surely that one is retired. 

    It would have to come up again in the form of something like: "Has Goodwin lost the touch?" Or "Is it time to change?"

    It won’t be nasty from me. I like Goodwin and think his Premiership year was incredible. Doesn’t mean we can’t discuss his role if we keep losing to top teams. How would you feel if we finished 6th and lost our elimination final this year? Do you think his coaching would be worthy of discussion?

    Thing is, it WILL be nasty from some.

    ”worthy of discussion “??? Yes. 
    Worthy of straight up vitriolic insults? That’d be a huge bunch of nope, right there.

    Sorry Hunter is missing also 

    Aplogies Roost it but we need 2 at least newbies vs Freo. 

    He gave som clues in his presser today apparently at training.

    The real question is; when did I get this old? 😭

    • Haha 3

    With Hunter and Olie out  we should definitely throw a cat among the pigeons and bring in some new blood. Keep Freo guessing and get some young hungry (no flag) players in the mix.  We need the 2021 hunger and desperation back and we'll do fine.

    • 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?
