Household ritual:

Celebrating: "Nibbler gets a goal?"

Genuine concern: "Who is going to hug him?"

 

We're on!

Chandler channelling his old self circa early last year. Nice

    Dogs continue to go too tight in the contest against our midfielders. Haven't learnt their lesson since 2021. Most teams let us win more of the contested ball in the middle but stop us getting out the front. Today we've already kicked a few goals from it

    The Chandler bashers can take a week off


    Bbb in slow motion kicks our fifth on a row.

    Was that in slow motion?

    Couple of things, anyone questioning Clarry’s fitness or readiness to play, there is your answer (if you still need it), or ANB, refer to his goal. Good to see Chandler find some footy even if a little was fortuitous. But took chances. Seems a confidence player so maybe this is what he needs.

    lastly, big Benny Brown, you can’t not smile when he kicks one. Magnetic.

    I genuinely thought Ben Brown would be out until mid-season or maybe never return, so that goal was a particular joy.

    Meanwhile, in-form Chandler is as good as any small forward in the game. Smooth out his slumps and he is an absolute gun.

    • 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?
