Max jumped forward over the mark.

Very dubious.

 

Missing Sam Weideman. Structure/roles looking very different, and Tim Smith not really giving us much/anything for the moment.

    OH dear God we look like an average football side. Hopefully the quarter time break allows us to hit the reset button.

     

    Gee we love conceding a goal on the siren.


    Also, this is a classic Carlton game.  They flood the contest and flood our forward line because they know how bad they are.  They are fantastic at bringing the opposition down to their shitty level.  

    We just need to keep at it and put the pressure on and they'll fold.  God I hate Carlton.

    Carlton are so bad.  They are doing nothing but going the man after every contest and finding cheap goals.  We are 4 times the side they are.  We just need to settle and put it on the scoreboard.  They won't go with us for 4 quarters.

    The 50m decision was absolute rubbish and what Max did is what every player does each time they're on the mark.  Outrageous decision.

    Would’ve touched it if he didn’t jump forward anyway. Jumped over the mark, it’s 50. 

    Cant say am overly impressed. 

     

    That Jed Lamb is a [censored]

    Easy, he jumped over the mark, not matter if the siren is gone, he can’t jump forward.

    Cheers - very unclear from directly behind him. At least that makes sense now, I thought it was paid in the fracas


    We will go to work in the 3rd. Keep the faith. Viney and Petracca to lead the charge.

    Welcome back Jack! 

    If that doesn't lift the boys, nothing will!

     

    I like that Vince is going the man a lot because it's a win win. He his them legal and it hurts them. He hits them high and we don't have to worry about carrying Vince in our side anymore.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      Melbourne and Hawthorn who face off against each other this week have more in common than having once almost merged and about to wear a blue jumper with a red v triangle and an embroidered picture of a bird on the front.  They also share the MCG as their main home ground, their supporters are associated with the leafy suburbs of Melbourne and in recent times, James Frawley graced the colours of both teams. Even more recently, both have bounced back from disastrous five game losing streaks to start off a season. Of course, the Hawks turned their bounce into a successful leap from the bottom of the ladder into a finals appearance, making it to the semifinals in 2024 and this year, they’re riding high in third place on the AFL table. The Demons are just three games into their 2025 bounce back, and are yet to climb their way out of the bottom four although they are sitting a game and percentage out of the top eight. However, with the current sportsbet odds of $3.90 to win this week’s encounter, it seems a forlorn hope that their upward progression will continue much longer.

    • 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.
