The kid is barely in the door. Of course he would get a full off season to see where he sits.  This is just getting used to your team mates ands settling in time.  He is not a unicorn, he is a young tall that cost the club very little. Give him space and see what happens,,,,

Well we’ve flicked a mid season draftee off before after 6 months in Kye Declase so was just asking

    Half the Melbourne players have all checked out.

    Hunter should just retire in the spot. That was an embarrassing performance from a more senior member.

    Why do you think Dogs got rid of him?? Poor due diligence by our club which is unbelievable as common knowledge..first hand knowledge

    Does Kentfield get a summer to prove himself next year? 

    Unless his attitude is the problem he should certainly get the preseason 

    first time he would have trained properly

    Disappeared under an avalanche of WBd’s goals. Moves well and has neat skills just needs to be more involved.

    Good to see Jeffo have another decent game

    4 goals in a losing team is good output. I didn’t see the game but he seems to know how to kick goals when having an average day.

    He seems like he's a high impact guy like Fritsch, doesn't need many touches to put the scores on the board

    Not only does it white ant ( rather than support) the senior competition, it also makes winning a flag in this competition seem kinda devoid of value.

    This should be the second best competition in the nation.

    It seems like it's being run by clowns.....

    Oh hang on

    The Quambatook Fifths are comparatively graced by a better-organised fixture. Similarly, Nar Nar Goon Fourths have benefitted from games held Saturdays - without abnormal variations - and their occasional visits to their Tribunal authority are as smooth as afternoon tea and scones in a sun-filled meadow with a large herd of grazing cattle strolling by to gain insight into some well-planned, civilized banter.

    Who cares.. they were early losses of the season.

    They're timing the run beautifully at the right time of the year. One of the most inform teams in the competition alongside Brisbane and Hawthorn. 

    Every chance they could finish too 4.

    I'd play him yes.

    29 goals from 16 games this year. Eventually you need to reward form at some stage.

    I'd have preferred Hunter was gifted his 200th tonight. Then the Bulldogs could chair him off rather than our blokes.

    I'd rather he never pull on the red and blue again.

    We don't owe him anything.

    True. He played today like he'd already retired

    Kentfield is still only 18 and has come over from the west mid season. While he hasnt pulled up any trees here yet, he surely deserves a pre seson etc to see how he goes next year.  The delivery has been generally deplorable at Casey this year which hasnt helped. Id like to see how he goes with a pre season under his belt and him growing a bit more into his body.

    Terrible game by so many. Slow and sloppy doesn't describe the relative failures on every line.

    Not sure that playing at Casey when they are in this form does anything for player development.

    One standout was the number of broken tackles allowing run on play by the Dogs.

    Time to draw a line under this annus horriblis.

    • 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?
