    Vids to come shortly.

    More importantly… all-time favourite songs:

    Bowser: Sweet Lies - Fleetwood Mac

    BBB: The Car Song - The Cat Empire

    Clarrie: I Remember Everything - Zach Bryan

    Langers: Heroes - David Bowie


    Same question, totally different ways of answering: 

    Bowser didn’t have to think. I had barely finished the word “… song?” and he blurted out his choice.

    BBB gave me the beautiful backstory of how when he and Hester first met they bonded over their love of The Cat Empire and attended many of the band’s gigs.

    With Clarrie it was like getting blood from a stone. It took so long to get an answer that I was almost in the rooms at AAMI, and we began the convo at Gosch’s! At first he called out to Max “Hey Gawny! What’s my all-time favourite song?” Maxy said a song title and Clarrie said, “Nah it’s not that one anymore.” He kept saying he had several in mind but he  couldn’t pick just one. In the end it took for me to say, “If I had a gun to your head right now, what would be your FAVOURITE BLOODY SONG???”

    Langers didn’t have to think long about it. He said, “Heroes, David Bowie.” I asked, “ Bowie fan? Or just a fan of that song?” He said, “Huge Bowie fan.” I showed him my Bowie tattoo and he was like “That’s so cool!” And I’m not 100% sure but I think we’re engaged now 😝

    edit: two years ago I asked Goody the question and he chose My Happiness by Powderfinger. I asked him today if that’s changed and it hasn’t. Guess he is stubborn after all 😉

    Can't believe they've dropped Laurie after his game last week.

    Didn't think Tholstrup was playing great footy to be an automatic inclusion and if Hunter comes in off poor form and recent injury then it's just baffling. No disrespect to Hunter but would rather see Woewodin or Howes on the wing than him.

    Where are you hearing Laurie’s been dropped?

    No, it’s a baby born after miscarriage or stillbirth.

    Just going by your videos. He was training with the seconds team in the bottom two videos you posted and I didn't sight him in any of the clips with the senior team.

    I like him, don't get me wrong. But his freo game was well below the standard before he got concussed. Expected inconsistencies given its his first year. Not an automatic selection for mine at this stage of his career. I suspect he'll be a permanent best 22 player next year though.

    Well most people usually melt when he's in the team so I'm predicting generalise apathy with a hint of confusion.

    • 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?
