    Kreuzer as FA option? Having a pretty good game and I reckon things might have finally clicked with him. Also there's the irony involved after 'winning' the Kreuzer cup but then getting him for nothing when he's just about to peak.

    If we could guarantee that he wont have any lasting injury problems, then of course you'd go after him.

    Raised it in the trades thread a while back. It's all a question of how well his body will hold up. Maybe a little of whether he'd like to leave as well, but only a little.

    Non MFC games: is this where we come to raise a toast to Henry Calthorpe Blofeld? Wish he was commentating the Tigers-Blues Chinese water-torture.

    Said in an interview this week that he doesn't want to play anywhere else but Carlton and they are already working on a new deal. He is keen to be a 1 club player and repay the faith the club has shown in him.

    So unless the Blues completely low ball him, which they won't, then he isn't going anywhere.

    One player i do hope we steer clear of is Henderson.

    He has been useless and is soft as they come.

    Henderson looks like Howe at the moment, he's already checked out.

    Fair enough

    Spot on. Playing like he's already got what he wanted out of footy. A strong breeze, if you know what I mean.

    What the actual [censored] is wrong with this umpiring.

    Joke decisions going to Richmond, getting paid marks without even touching the ball!

    This is disgraceful and the AFL need to step in and sorts these idiots out!

    Im finding myself barracking for the blues because of the arm chair ride to the tiges and my pure hatred for them.

    dunno what's worse, the football or the umpiring

    nothing like showcase friday night football, folks, topped off by channel seven's finest

    Checked out to where though??

    Umpiring once again giving Toiges an armchair ride. Paid a mark resulting in a goal hardly touching the ball then someone paid a mark after Kruzet was the only one who touched it. Absolute crap. And no doubt whoever is the umpires spokesman will justify it all as ok.

    How did we beat Richmond AND the umpires?

    I know. And from memory we really did have to contend with the umpires. They kept Richmond in it for the 1st half as I recall.

  • Quote

    Last week I thought Richmond were smashed by the umpiring all game and got the inevitable square-up in the last term. They won because GWS were even more putrid than they were. It was a shocking game, and this one's not much better. The Tiges are lucky they haven't come up against strong opponents in the last two weeks.

    Tigers have saints/Freo/Hawks coming up. Very interesting to see what happens.

    • 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.
