For anyone watching at home, which going by the crowd was most of you, was JVR a tactical or injury sub?

    Really hoping that Clarry and Viney put on ice. Jack was enormous early but faded. I suspect both require surgery so do it now. I'd add Max to that list but not happening.

    Another who was perhaps unwell, or was suffering the effects of? He certainly looked pretty rough on the bench.

    Yes that’s very possible. He looked stuffed trying to get to the bench. 


    CLARRY DEFINATELY UNDER THE WEATHER IS MY INTEL, Plus a few others as well!

    Lose to GC and beat Collingwood and you've got a deal.

    From what Goodwin said last night after the game, it sounds like he isn't going to put away any players. 

    Against Collingwood I'd put any of our top players away cause who knows what they'll do

    Giving games to the youngsters has to be the go. It's what end of season dead rubbers are for.

    We are already playing plenty of youngsters. Throwing them to the wolves without the protection of senior players is not the way to end the season. Hoping for no more injuries so those still standing can hit preseason with intent. 
    that said, if moniz is good to go, would like his speed back in. Good to see Howes and hore back in, but hoping MC picks whatever side matches up best to win rather than experiment.
    Or throw fritta to halfback to see which media needs to lay the boots in, for funsies.

    Remarkable result given that, which is what many of us suspected.

    Jeffersen for Melks

    Yeah Melk could be on the chopping block for team selections this week. 

    3 disposals against the doggies previous week and was pretty ineffective as a sub.

    We need to bring in Ray Biffin and Rod Grinter to play on Moore and Maynard.

    Roy did actually take a one-grab mark close to the boundary line.

    • 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.
