Very good

Thorstrup. Tired second half

Langford Next big thing

Agree on Salem. Cost us two goals against and then without pressure hit their player between two of ours.

I’d drop him for McVee.

I'd swap Sparrow and Melksham. Langford and Lindsay both deserve more credit.

I can’t see why people label Langford slow, he’s quick to think, quick to react, quick to pick the right option, quick to get running to the right position, I don’t get it.

Clarry had a few howlers today but he did a lot of grunt work, was pretty happy with him.

Yes at least 3 absolute howlers. Two cost us goals. His endeavour was unquestionable, and he gave his all, but there’s no denying that his execution was often poor.

Yeah but..... given what he has achieved for the club and himself and to bounce back from personal adversity, and recreate himself yep, at least he has done that! He may never be as good as he was but sheeiet he still is a damn fine player, a better clubperson, and I thought his last quarter was phenomenal, won Ultra hard ball, took a few massive hits and kept going. LOVE THE MAN!

Clayton was massive in that last quarter he sure took some knocks and never faulted.

Tholstrup - provided much energy (Until he tired - good return)

Played his best game for the year. That's the minimum we should expect from him not the [censored] he's dished up this year. We are a lot better team when he's playing like that.

  • 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?
