We started to win some clearances and bam got some reward! Max is starting to take over as well. 

Game is by no means over but we’ve given ourselves a good chance. The mentality is what you worry about after games like last week.

    What a freak, his cleanliness around the ball is why we’re in front. Can’t believe how good he is at only 21

    I know, I don’t think Viagra could be better than watching Oliver do his thing.

    The kid is a fucken JET!

    Nerves feeling much better now. That was dominance, and this Adelaide side ain’t Geelong hanging on for dear life. Bring it home Demons!

    Adelaide are mentally weak where Geelong aren’t.

    Where was I sitting last week?? Should I change seats? Beer in left hand or right?

    F... I can't cope!!

    I’m at the same bar, same seat, same time. Think I might have had one less beer though ... do I dare order another!


    JKH and Tyson get a tick that quarter. Must hang on here for a win.

    Nine goals to one since halfway through the second quarter.

    Strangely, it doesn't quite feel like it. Maybe it was the mood of all the people writing off our season earlier.

    Important final quarter. I'd be perfectly happy with a dogged, mean, scrap from here, as long as we prove we can do it right to the siren.

     

    Before the game I’d have taken a win of any sort. I’d really like another burial now though. We are poised for it.

    Not watching tonight. Hurt hand last week punch the floor. Not this week.

    17 more points to get over the Chris Sullivan line...

    Am really enjoying the praise Oliver is getting.  His brilliance cannot be ignored, not even by the most biased commentator.

    7 goals 4 in that quarter.  Go dees!

    Exactly Lucifer’s.  It’s 4.47am here, i should be  sleeping, but that was just too good! Must stay up for the last quarter.  

    Please keep it together this week Dees!

    • 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.
