I reckon Adelaide are Just squeaking closer than they deserve to be right now. This game is not over by a long way.

Dang the late goal..

    Massive by ANB.

    Massive. This kid is easily Best-22. One of the first picked I reckon.

    Hogan should have taken his 30 seconds with his last goal instead of playing on, it would have given us time to have a bigger breather and compose ourselves while Adelaide were gaining some momentum.

     

    This is statistically the most dominant 15 quarters a Melbourne side has ever played. Never have we won 15 quarters in a row before.

    Huge first quarter.

    If we give them an inch, they will take a mile.

    Keep the pressure up!

    I was hard on him early in the year but I think they were playing him out of position. Is a half forward. 

    He's basically a little Tom McDonald. Runs all day, back and forward, and is most valuable in the last 5 minutes because everyone else is buggered but he's still going strong.

    Wow. Love the first quarter. 

    Cannot fault that. 

    Adelaide finding a way to kick goals against the flow like good teams do. 

    Just hoping when and if adelaide get their run on we find a way to kick those needed goals

    Good start. Midfield must stay on top and we should win. Long way to go.


    Cannot stress enough how good that quarter was!

    If we can keep it up for the whole game, that quarter will get talked about a lot I reckon this week.

    Who is this Melbourne side?

    Great attacking football. Both with and without the ball. They are a good side and will we come back just need to manage the momentum when it comes. Great quarter by some of our lesser lights in Nibbler and Harmes but strong all round team first display. Need to keep it up.

     

    Can’t let them get momentum early in the second, must at least halve the contest in the first 15 minutes or better still put more score on.

    Great quarter of footy. 

    Crows are a class outfit and will hang around, but we have the ability to put them to the sword if we keep playing like this. Fantastic footy to watch!

    • 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.
