It would be fantastic to pull away in the 3rd Quarter 

After Halftime has been a slogfest this Season 

If we can't beat this propped up, pretend team, then there is seriously as something wrong with us as a club.

We will win today.

    Overall it’s been a solid effort. Suns have been off but after a poor start we have played pretty well

    Nice to see out future fwd line starting to click. Turner and Petty looking good.

    Apparently the only bloke playing for Dees is Viney.

    Gold Coast must be winning by 50 points judging by the negative vs positive  posts. Remember the reason we are not out there is because the blokes that are, are better than us !!!!

    Damn it that's cruel  15 minute break at work. Puck up my phone and utshalf time.

    What have I missed? 

    Very little. 

    Disco’s crumbed a couple of nice goals.

    Viney had a big second quarter. 

    Max has largely beaten Witts but given up a couple of goals.

    Our skills have been poor, the Suns have been worse.

    And Sparrow got a nasty ankle injury that looked a little high ankle sprain ish.

    If nibbler doesnt pick up , he should be dropped

    imo gc17 are pathetic - that they have had access to so much talent over the course of their time and they still haven't got near finals is an indictment upon them as a franchise

    these sides very much look like teams who are sitting 11-13 on the ladder

    So happy with how Tholstrup is looking

    I want a refund

    Pickett has been the laziest player on the ground today… just jogging around, applying pretty much zero pressure… thankfully one of the only times he did apply a little pressure and got his only possession, resulted in a goal assist.

    I’m loving Turner’s game, Hore is showing a bit down back, Rivers managed to get himself somewhat back on track after a horrendous first quarter, Salem has been mostly good, but I have to wonder what has gone wrong with his kicking game. I’m not McVee is ready for a move to the midfield yet, having had only four possessions.

    Here’s hoping McVee, Fritsch and Puckett can get themselves more involved in the second half.

    So for half a game at least. Goodness is a champion coach

    Great to see us kick more and handball less, tackle more and mark more than the opposition at half time. And despite less free kicks and i50s, we are in front. Well done Dees.

    Ben Brown’s own ‘Mini Me’.

    Dees are definitely in this. Viney not looking like someone dreaming of Arden Street. Rivers had a poor first quarter but improved later in the second quarter. Carn the Dees!

    Great to see Charlie Spargo in the rooms!

    He is alive!

    Forgotten man. If he can get fit, ANB's spot is up for grabs.

    His inside 50 connection was elite in 2021.

    Kozzie has gone to the wrong ground I reckon. Unsighted today.

    Love Max giving Kolt’s leg a rub like a proud Dad.

    • 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.
