    Considering Richmond’s injuries we need to put them away early. Our real test comes the following weeks against the Cats and Blues. Looking at this weeks results 4 & 2 on face value is good but we effectively haven’t beaten a serious contender yet.

    Port are a serious contender imo. They got poleaxed yesterday but by the end of the year I think they will be right in the mix. But overall point taken. Blues off 5 days makes the Cats game even bigger...and yes putting the tigers away early would definitely be helpful!

    Blast from the past with that comment! Was coached by both gentlemen, terrific blokes as well! Both have Dees connections!

    We must play Fullerton. Max and JvR as our ruck combo can’t possibly see out the season.

    Furthermore, playing backup ruck is hindering JvR’s development as a key forward IMO.

    If Mathew Nicholls or Nathan Williamson are umpiring I won't go.

    Shocking umpires who hate Melbourne and make the game unbearable.

    We have just had a 13 day break and will then have a 10 day break. Now is not the time to give Max a chop out.

    Yze will also put up a good tactical game, looking to exploit known vulnerabilities. 

    We just need to focus on responding to the Lions games.

    Let me outline Yze's game plan.

    1. Don't kick it high into the Richmond fwd line

    2. Chip the ball into the fwd line. Dirty balls work well against the Dees.

    3. Avoid May and Lever

    4. Pressure them relentlessly and watch them crumble

    5. Avoid May and Lever

    6. Jump into Gawn's back at every single opportunity. Hold him scragg him - he never gets a free so don't worry

    7. Shake Olivers hand really hard at the start of the game. Give him lots of high fives

    8. Avoid May and Lever.

    9 Above all and if you have forgotten everything else, avoid May and Lever

    In December they announced the pregnancy but I thought the due date was in June. Maybe she was further along than we thought. 🤷‍♀️

    • 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.
