Brown is officially cooked. Apparently his knee is flaring again. Such a shame. A second KPF has to be our priority in the draft/trade period

Makes sense with Petty being shifted Pre season to the Forward line.

Seen the writing on the wall.

Both a tactical and a necessity at the end of the day.

Sad news.

But we can never forget, BBB was a DEMON PREMIERSHIP FF ❤️💙❤️💙❤️💙

When you say "officially", do you mean the club, or you, saying that?

Agree with another key forward in the draft/trade period and have been posting it for a while now.

If BBB retires and maybe even Tom Mac as well, we should be looking to bring in a mature key forward and draft another one as well.

No one will ever forget that Mono, When the bodies had enough its had enough.

I hope he can push through it but it doesn't look good.

Have to go into the market.

So the only change for Monday is Hibberd in for Bowey. If Hibberd hasn't got up it could be Disco playing, that's why he may not be named in the team, just guessing.

Just seen that Disco has been named injured. Hibbo definitely in.

It’s been reported on. He is listed as injured. In his latest Instagram post he is wearing a bandage on his knee. It’s the midpoint of the season and he has played a couple of senior games. But yeah, I just made the whole thing up. Not like he had this dodgy knee for a while or anything

I realise i'll be mocked here for saying this, but what about offering Jesse Hogan a two year contract? I understand he's out of contract at end of season. Surely this would be worth the risk? He seems like he's been more switched on over the last few seasons and improved his discipline.

Jesse might be more 'switched on' than you think if he is still living with Mumford!

that should have happened 2 years ago in my view

BB and T MAc always high risk and should have been covered

I wasn’t accusing you of making it up, I just asked if the club said it, or it was your opinion, that his injury was career ending.

There is a difference as you will agree.

It wasn’t an attack on you.

Well I suppose the club thought they would be good for another short period and they drafted JVR and Jefferson as the ones to take over. They also brought in Schache to replace Weid. I am certain we will draft or trade another key forward, or both, this year.

Have watched him play a fair bit this year and while he has kicked a few goals, he drops a lot of marks, has no recovery now, applies no forward pressure, sulks a lot and admonishes team mates.

That doesn’t fit our culture, so I can’t see us considering him.

from all reports we talked to him before he went to gw$

after the conversation and the requests that we made to make to his lifestyle it was a resounding 'no' from our football department

This still feels so, so wrong.

I agree, I’ve watched a couple of GWS games and his body language is still that off a sulky teenager. He also has virtually no second efforts. Such a shame, he absolutely has the build and talent, just seems like he can’t get out of that unproductive headspace.


Looking to sept going to be hard to succeed without either of bb or TMac. Jvr has been brilliant in his first season but is 19. Relying on him, petty with Maxy and Grundy chipping in won’t get it done. Hope im wrong.

We badly need to pick up an experienced KPF in trade week. not many around though.

  • 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?
