    I saw that and thought it might be the reason why the rumour of a late out was circulating. 

    Broken hand, was touch and go.

    Carlton play a tough contested brand of footy, but just have far too many crap players. No coaching or game plan can help when you’ve got the likes of Kerridge who rack up possessions on the wing, turn inboard and kick a scrubber along the ground in to the centre and turn a clear avenue to goal in to another contest. 

    We’re in 3rd gear. Find 4th and we will annihilate them.

    And Plugger McDonald, you are a star.

    Great list management from Carton.  Play the scrubbers in the great draft years.  Can't help but recruit talent.

    But as we know, its all how you go about list managing,,, and also how you go developing the players during the week, between the ears.

     

    They are learning the subtleties of managing,,, Gibbs last year, and maybe Murphy this season.

    Next year down again, and then bang (2020), climb quick.

     

    Absolute training drill now. Love it.

     

    Edit: That's how we do it Maxxy. It's not that hard now is it.

    ANB is now a protected species! No more criticism of this football genius.

    We can't all sound like Jonathan Brown or Chris Dawes.

    Just got in wow. Might go back out 

    We’re now 4th and closing in on 3rd spot - only 4% behind Crows

    This is epic.

    We have risen 7% on the ladder already.

    • 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.
