    Fullarton or Verrall in the squad... I'd prefer Verrall but I think Fullarton.

    I also think he won't make the final cut

    BBB and McAdam for game day

     

    Yep

    Fullarton and not Verrall

    Salem being listed is interesting.

    With Langdon out Hunter will be wondering why he has missed out

    So could be McAdam, Brown and Salem for JVR, Turner and Langdon. 

    For them, McGovern stays in despite sore ribs and Waterman is back. Take them lightly at your own peril.

    You would think that Salem will play.

    If they wanted to give him a light run there's a Casey game on Saturday. He's not making the trip as an emergency.

    My guess on the final interchange is

    McAdam, Salem Brown and Woewodin with Tholstrup as sub

    Does Fullarton play? No vision of him with the group being cheered for his first game. Personally I hope it's Tomlinson.

    Who plays wing? Hunter completely out of favour.

    Billing’s, Woey and maybe the Kolt?

    That’d be my tip. Fullarton ahead of BBB only because he can give Max a chop out. Whilst I’ve seen BBB take a handful of ruck contests inside 50m he ain’t capable of rucking outside the arc.

    Good to see Salem back in the side and hopefully spending some time on the wing with Lingers being NA (hope he is ok).  

    Good strong team named but still difficult to select the IC and sub from what ha been named.

    There are a lot of ways that the team could be structured and it might be hard for WC if they are looking to react to our selections. I would have thought that Bowey and Sparrow are definite for the IC along with one of Salem, Woewodin or Tholstrup for the bench and one of the other two for Sub. That would leave one bench position for one of the talls. 

    Damned if I know what way they are going to go.

    Whoever they name I want to see a much better performance in the first half of this game then the team ha delivered in the last few weeks.

    Expecting a win but never count my chickens supporting this team.

     

    Go Dees!

    Hunter would look at his poor Casey form. He should be dominating

    • 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?
