    I wonder whether the reviewers thought the question was which side of the post it went through. They made that decision awfully quickly with only one camera angle.

    Just saw an angle that has me changing my mind (yes miracles can happen), I was wrong there, did go through goals

    Carlton May fight out epic draw. 

    All up to our 22. 

    Knowing our luck probably be team to finish outside 8 with highest percentage ever.

    Classic Jenkins. Said post match he thought ball touched the post. 

    Definitely went through the goals as you can see the shadow of the ball goal side. Wouldn’t have a clue if it snuck the post though.

    No, it went left unless I am seeing things.  My stills show that ....

    Kind of want Sydney to win this. Think positive I want the best chance at top 4. 

    I really believe we are a genuine chance in all 4 of our games.

    I am not worried what other teams are doing. If we just keep winning.

    If we lose, we are still not good enough

    i think our midfield is ready to kill, time will tell if i am right. 

    Port lost to Adelaide - great. Swans to account for Collingwood - game just started. We trash GCoast tomorrow. He comes position 3 on the ladder. Fingers crossed.

    Luke Darcy just said that Jenkins thought it hit the post.  Honest but seriously dumb by Jenkins.  Should have said 'umpire was in the best position to decide'.

    GWS will beat Carlton though. 

    assuming a win tomorrow next week is a big one.

    GWS V Adelaide, Port v West Coast and us against the Swans.

    Will definitely be a heart stopping weekend

    Crows win was good. It is really obvious why we let Watts go. He does nothing especially when it is tight.

    I hope the filth win as it may knock the stuffing out of the swans but I think the swans will win. 

    Awkward timing to say that when we are about to play Gold Coast in a must-win game late in the season!

    Having said that, I think you're quite right, and while I've never hated Watts it became obvious the moment I started thinking about our forward line without him. He just doesn't quite... do... anything in particular.

    Sorry Trav but that pic shows it in front of the goals. Can just see the point of the ball in front of the post

    That being said, I think it hit the post.

    I was adamant of it too, but on Ch7 I just saw and angle I hadn’t previously seen, on that it seems to go through goals and is clearest angle I have seen

     Adelaide can still make 8 so they will go for broke next week

    Absolutely. We hold our own destiny. 

    Great round of footy.

    The ball certainly went through the goal posts. Did it shave the post?

    The Camera angles cannot be conclusive (what a joke)

    Umpires call was a goal.

    Darcy Moore being given a bath by Franklin so far.

    Saved by the siren from yet another loss in a one on one marking comp.

    Obviously missing Dunn.

    Anybody's game but it does not look up to the standard of the other games based on the first quarter.

    Sydney have to win tonight. For a few reasons, so the pies can be knocked out of the top 4, they get ahead of the teams below them like cats, nth, essenscum and im sick of hearing abut the pies winning. 

    anyway is anyone watching the game of the round Saints v Bulldogs? Saints have started well and I reckon they will beat the dogs. 

    Well done hawks today. I just watched the last 2 minutes off the afl site. I think it makes it sweeter they lost by a small margin. I couldn't help myself. I had to go over to bomberblitz for a laugh.

    Yeah with you on that. Hard fought game but the skill level is lacking. I'm on the Swans. I just can't barrack for Collingwood sorry.

    I;m with you @GCDee - we have form in the west - particularly as they're depleted - we match up rather well.

    I think on body of work for the year - we should get up over sydney - irrespective of what happens in our and their match.

    And I think in the case of the GWS - they;ve got more class and outside (which can kill us) but we should go alright up forward - it's contingent on planning and execution (as i guess it is every week(.

    The filth are doing the right thing but for the 2nd half I don't know. Strangely I think the swans will play the MCG better than the SCG.

    Jenkins is not any sort of umpire, so his opinion is irrelevant.The umpires followed accepted procedures and the reviewer saw no reason to contradict the umpires call. Nothing would be done now to overturn it even if there is evidence it hit the top of the point post. game over

    Port play west coast in Adelaide next week with a few showers forecast.  I don’t rate Port that highly but hopefully they’ll make it a slog next week.

    • 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.

    • GAMEDAY: West Coast

      It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?
