    I’ve got one… are you the invisible man? Coz I must’ve asked at least six blokes if they were Werridee. The looks I got! Given that the number of spectators peaked at no more than 20, if that - and that’s including Jess Gawn and bubba George - I can’t see how I missed you. Shame because I had my *best 22 haircuts for you. Maybe next time.

    * Kolt didn’t even make the bench 🤭

    You might've mistaken Werridee for an MFC match selection committee member, if they were on the sidelines with a notepad scribbling in their best 22.

    I was on the wing no one was near me. I had headphones around my neck and a 76's cap.

    Great work guys! I’m lookin fwd to Monday sesh just hope it’s not all running.. 

     

    Terrific slots and updates, really like the vibes coming out of club atm, and I think current crop of standouts bodes extremely well & Marty Hore is NO surprise, ppl will be eating words he brings much of what we need & this is what JT etc understand that many ill-informed DL neggers do not! So I love the masses of positivity here, great work all.
     

    McDonald down back makes perfect sense, he’s gotta go somewhere & it can’t be fwd without some major inj updates. Need depth down bk!!!

     

    Sestan, MJ, KOLT, Laurie, Adams, Fullarton & Howes all seemingly on right track and that’s what we need pushing through, already 4-6 names in totality that could be in mix even if squad is fully fit and that is where the improvement needs to come from, not the top 6-8 players, but the others moving fwd & releasing those top 6-8 workloads so they can be more efficient and make better decisions thru having more support.

     

    Super excited about this season. It’s gonna shard to be up there again but if we can convert better we’ll definitely be a show and that’s something!

    I was told that tomorrow it’s time trials.

    I mentioned to Chocco that it’s awesome to see all the boys so happy and hard at it. He agreed then said, “Enjoy it now coz Monday they’ll all be sh!ttty.” 🤣

    Not sure Kent but I was thinking that Turner may go onto the mediums and possibly Woey do a lock down role he looks pretty strong and has pace, could be a way for him to nail a spot in the 23 and that leave’s McVee and Bowey to be more creative. Will be interesting but we now have a lot of options.

    • 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.
