Wtf is with the umpires calling high fend offs on Gawn constantly!!!! 

 

Its like they watch footage and have a pre conceived idea that he does it!!! They have already made the same call twice

 

Being absolutely killed by the umps. Huge square-up for QB last year.

    10 free kicks to 3. Fair dinkum

    Umpires can go and get [censored]. They are so biased and ruining this match. 

    Ugly quarter love how we stood up in the last 5 and got it on a terms a bit. Could have blown out to a 40 point margin. 

    Gee wiz two different sets of rules out there at the moment. 

    10 scoring shots to 2. This game should by all rights be over but we're somehow still kind of in it. I can't see us winning despite squaring things up slightly in the last 5 minutes.


    I hope the Filth run out of gas after that.

    Gawn clearly a target of Collingwood. Just bumping into him every chance they get. 

    Too nice, big Maxy. Should have killed Langdon on the wing when he had the sit and Langdon was fully outstretched running back. Should have made a real statement. 

    I’ve just lost my appetite

    Salem and Smith holding the defence together right now.

    The rest are putrid.


    It’s not so much the free kicks that are paid for them as it is those that are not paid to us

    Jones ragdolled without it, Pies players throwing it for fun, Gawn pushed in the back...no whistle

    As I feared they are way too quick for us at this stage 

    Collingwood have been very, very good.

    We're still in this and have settled, but need to get the game back on our terms.

    Son-of-Smith has been excellent.

     

    Worst quarter of umpiring I've seen in ages. Collingwood have looked good when moving the ball but cracks are already starting to show. We need to keep up the manic pressure.

    Collingwood bringing it. Gonna need to step up.

    • 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.
