    A win. Yippee.

    Well great comeback from our captain.
    Oliver well and truly back.
    Chandler some much needed signs of old.
    May absolutely rock solid down back. Nice game from Billings and Hore.
    The biggest take away for me was Bbbs performance.
    Didn't kill it but a very good serviceable game nonetheless. Our best tall fwd.
    Tmac pretty good down back.
    That's two key talls I had in all honesty pretty much written off. Im having some humble pie for dinner. Tx all.

    A moment needs to be taken, to try and comprehend playing Laurie and Spargo ahead of Billings last week

    Especially when Spargo had such a poor end to the pre season

    Much better and there’s still improvement - like fritta not missing what he’d usually kick. 

    Billings and Chandler great (let’s hope it sparks momentum, like his work out back as well), Clarry awesome to see. Tmac handy and BBB looked good. Maxy immense. 

    Generally kept them at bay and monstered them at the end.

    103-44 after the 20-6 fast start to the dogs. 

    Let’s consolidate against the hawks next week to give us confidence and momentum for a tough few weeks after that. 

    Go Dees!

    Very good win! We looked like a very different side to last week. We actually looked to use the corridor more and take the game on. Good signs.

    Gawn was BOG for me. He absolutely monstered English. Oliver, May, Trac and Viney were also very good.

    Also a special shout to Billings. He should never have been used as a sub against the Swans. His ball use was brilliant.

    • 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?
