    Geez I don't. McGovern will chew up and spit out Weed.

    And it highlights a problem... we're effectively worrying about THEIR defender. They should be worrying about our forward. Bet they're not !!

    That perspective has the correct focus, beelzebub. Been a while since we applied that confidence and attitude to opponents, and I reckon, that was taken away by the umpires this year in particular.

    You might not want to hear / read this but the betting is tightening up. 

    Tightening up? Other than punters taking the longer odds wonder if they know of a late out?


    My clock feels like it's got flat batteries time is going that slow! C'mon!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I’m hoping for the Dees to do what Essendon did to them over there earlier in the year. 

    With the team we’ve selected today, there is a chance we can do it. Finally we have some speed in the team. 

    The only other change I would’ve liked was Spargo out for JKH. But other than that it’s not a bad side.

    The luxury of that thought! Hope he does, as he really deserves a crack after an interrupted season.

    Injuries are big for WC. They rely on a few big names more than most. 

    If we had Gawn, Oliver and hogan out it would be equivalent imo

    Whatever we do, we CANNOT let them take intercept marks in defence. That killed us again last week . I like the idea of Weed playing on McGovern

    Got any of these in red and blue? I have a feeling this is going to be one of my less well behaved afternoons.

    On the bright side, I'm having memories of 2005 vs Bulldogs flash across my mind unbidden. That's a good sign, yes?

    I was not well behaved that day either.

    Lol, we all are. As supporters it's completely out of our control while we hope the same doesn't happen again this year. Definitely a sickening feeling.

    I am staying off the beer until the game has finished.

    • 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.
