It’s hard to believe Grundy is on over a mil a year.

    Sydney are getting well beaten in the clearance, if they can at least break even, it’s game over.

    Dominating clearances and contested possessions doesn’t seem to mean much these days

    Sydney play port last week… different result. They like twice as fresh as Port. The week off is a considerable advantage.

    Grundy & Jordan having the last laugh 

    Both having quiet nights. Blakey.  Heeney. Gulden.  Too much run for port.

    Port are the biggest pretenders. I can't see any other coach consistently getting this squad to Prelims, though. They just don't have enough X Factor to win a flag. Their F50 entries have been shocking. Hawthorn vs Sydney was always going to be a better contest.

    Grundy is a habitual blocker and holder of the opposing ruck but only gets called a few times a match.

    On my count in this third quarter he's given away four frees in rucking contests so far and none have been called.

    I reckon he just got held himself at the throw in but they let it go because of this.

    Grundy 7 touches 5 clangers

    Jordon 7 touches 2 clangers. although keeping Butters a bit quiet

    Keep trolling away.

    JHF very good as a receiver but no so good at defending the loose player.

    Talk about lazy on the two way.

    • 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.
