I like the look of Caleb Lewis. He might be worth looking at in mid season.

He played with Howes at Sandy.

Ill Give Jefferson a rev up as he’s shown aggression, positioning and poise to start the third. Need much more of it but I was glad to see he can do it.

Pick 13 for Tholstrup still remains a question mark for me. Does not seem to be impacting at this level at all

i'll go hard counter

tough in the clinches, does the little things already (shepherds, blocks, etc.), and puts his head over the ball

heaps to like

currently has 14 disposals (equal 2nd for casey) on a 50:50 split, 5 tackles, 3 marks, and 3 clearances

You’re kidding 

Just now, whatwhat say what said:

Noticed Windsor does the same thing. It’s not always about the possessions with both of them. Their blocking, Shepard, Knock ons and tackles show great team work. 


Verrell to Laurie goal. But I want to talk about how Fullerton has changed the look around the ball. He’s not a contested mark beast, but his follow up work has been great. 

Bailey Laurie is NOT a mid. That clearance was the prime example, fumbles the ball to Hawthorns 50, misses a tackle clearance Hawthorn. He has some crafty things for a HF or small forward but he’s not a mid, this needs to end.

 

I think I've been a bit lucky to only be home and watching after half time.

Seen a bit of what everyone was talking about - the trash disposal, rushed decisions, and all that - but it also seems to be very marginally turning a bit our way. Maybe not in our favour, but at least not so one sided as the first half and the alarmingly bad first quarter.

yep

i'm more and more thinking...

OUT: may, lever
IN: Fullarton, Woewodin

petty and salem stay down back, hore comes in to starting 22, fullarton becomes forward / ruck relief, and probably woey 2.0 is the sub

tholstrup the pick of our next tier mid types, but i reckon he comes in to give windsor a rest for the 5 day break

  • 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?
