    I meant in the fact that opposition fans are gonna hate him, not so much on how he goes about his footy.

    Love this post. 71 to 22 at half time and he finds only things to whinge about.

    He's tagging Kelly I think?

    Think he’s putting his head in the hole and freeing up Vines with a handball.

    His body work at stoppages is worth looking at too. Happy to take contact and pressure and open up channels. He gets in their way, and it is really annoying for opposition. I reckon he's going to be good.

    I reckon he's going to be great!:-) He's a got a bit of mongrel in him and I like it a lot. He's fire in his belly. 

    Bloody umpires!!!

    oh it’s 9-4 in our favour

    nevermind!

    Percentage is going to be so important in this very close season.  Please play this one out boys.

    The lower we can keep their score the better for percentage.

    So when do we think JVR is winning the Coleman? Next year, the year after .... 😜


    While it’s been terrific seeing all of the multiple goal kickers (particularly Roo) and Melksham’s fantastic return, possibly the greatest thing to come out of this game, assuming we keep piling on the goals, will be the pleasure of knocking Collingwood out of the eight!

    Great first half boys, loving the pressure and aggression shown over the last couple of weeks. Couldn't have asked for much more so far. Go dees 🔴🔵

    It's hard to get too excited because West Coast are putrid, but it's nice to see us being a big more aggressive with the ball and giving our forwards a look, it's amazing how forward 50 connection doesn't look like such an issue when it doesn't take 3 hours to get it in there and it doesn't just get dumped to the square every time

    The next half will be a test for the Dees as they are essentially playing themselves from now. Can they keep the pressure up and bury them or will they take the foot off and cruise home? It’s time to go for the kill, something they haven’t done for a while.

    Monners will be alright.

    As Kolt has shown, these young guys need 5 - 10 games before they can actually settle.

    They need to invest the time and a place in the team for a time. And not the bloody sub!

    Thing is if we don't drop away to an ordinary win, we can build on this and get our season rolling.

    Who ever May is on is getting it a bit easy 

    Is it usual for a team to take sleeping pills at half time? 🤦🏼‍♂️


    Backline is having a mare. May needs to pull the finger. 

    lol you can smell the Eagles comeback. They've found it energy.

    • 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?
