That was fun

 

Joeboy - showed admirable constraint.


Joeboy - perfect except for McVee. 18 possessions. 8 intercepts. 100% disposals efficiency. 7 marks. Tried his best under constant pressure.  Held Walters. Walters got 2 goals from horrible Dees turnovers.  Not mcvees fault.  Three words. Mcvee. Tried under pressure.  

Sparrow never really delivers.

He tries hard but doesn't have the skills for a mid

Probably suited to a Cameo up fwd 

Petty has fallen apart.

You forgot Oliver....

Hasn't been great.

Gawn wasn't outplayed.  He was clearly the dominant ruck on the ground.  Darcy and Jackson's only periods of dominance in the ruck came against Petty, or when Jackson played as a forward.  Gawn beat them both convincingly in every other measure.  the Dockers didn't win the game because of the ruck battle.  There were about 50 other reasons. And yes, that's way more than three words:

Gawn - busted his guts

Brutally unfair on McVee

Sparrow    Hasn’t come on

Petty     Thoughts of Adelaide

Chandler    Love an Upgrade

Salem     Dynamic he’s not

MFC     Soul searching required


Mostly , I agree

  • 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?
