    Umpires gifting them the momentum killing breaks. The boys still got to work. We are peaking at the right time

    The worst umpiring in a final in living memory wasn't enough to shake their determination.

    Destroying Hawthorn was strangely unfulfilling .

    We seek the grail.

    Imagine beating Hawthorn to make a prelim then seeing BT’s head bopping around the changerooms.

    Yuk.

    I'm just looking through the stats.  I can't believe how little ball we had.  Our mids seemed to be everywhere, but only three players went over 20 disposals.  The Hawks had more inside 50s as well.  The stats really don't look like us winning by 30+ points and kicking over 100 points.

    How good was Melkshams goal from 50 on the left foot to halt Hawthorns run.

    Completely against the run of the umpires.

    No passengers tonight, just 22 guys willing to put their heads and body on the line to win a contested ball. I have never in my 54 years supporting this club have seen and heard a Melbourne crowd like that.

    Just an incredible game. We were sat in front of the Hawks standing area - an arrogance of Hawks.

    Such great character in this team. As others have said, it is the future for these young guys that is so exciting.

    This season has surpassed expectations by some distance. To have made the finals was already a big tick, but to win two finals ... phenomenal. Team is maturing before our eyes.

    Now watch Goodwin win coach of the year. (toss up between him and Clarkson).

    Clayton Oliver was hilarious on Roaming Brian.   Totally took the [censored] out of BT.

    Felt so different at the ground to last week. Last week was emotional and a celebration, this was more like a difficult job at the coal face, done with minimum of fuss, and are rostered on for next week.

    Hawks: Top 4 Flogs.

    So happy that we had the honour of ending their year. What a night.

    So at the start of the season I think we all agreed that finals was the minimum acceptable result.  Pretty sure we're all happy with what we've achieved now.  Let's just hope we manage two more.

    Also, a bit of Spargo love please. Not big numbers, but all of them seem to be important numbers, and great to see him getting on the end of a couple.

    • 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.
