    Think how irritating it will be when he starts drooling over our emerging MFC stars in future.  Cringeworthy. 

    He's already done it with his Viney ! Viney !!! Viiiiiiiiiiiiney !!!!!! effort. 

    You sometimes want to give him a slap, but I'll let that one slide.

    Just realised that when Gunston hit the post from 10 metres or whatever that he was only one second or so away from being crunched by Viney. No wonder he missed!

    At times during the call, he called "Sahrlem" as you said, but also "Slahlom" at one point.

    I also get turned off by his ott growling voice @bingers when something exciting happens... that and his constant need for positive feedback... "Didnt he"?, "Wasnt it"?, etc etc. One of the best sporting brains in the world statistics wise, but his days as a caller have passed him by.

    Must retire from calling soon or more people will listen to radio while watching TV.

    Yeah, without that big chase from Viney Gunston would've bounced and walked into open goal...

    Truely a 1%er that was game changing from our fearless leader!

    Then there were 2 massive chases in the game because I thought Hibberd's chase on Gunston to deny him the soccer goal earlier was a significant moment in the match.

    Id love to know now what the "joke" was that Roughead told the huddle just before the start?

    Nice set-up for the jokers on here but in all seriousness I think he would have been reminding the Hawks that last time the Melbourne Football Club made it to a prelim our current starting midfield were still watching Barney the Dinosaur and wetting the bed . . .

    Poppy .... roughie .... what a fool.

    His demented growling is the worst. "Viney viney Viney" (in stupid growling voice) after he did brilliantly to kick it to the hot spot. (Brayshaw marked and goaled.)

    I'm sorry. The cringiest piece of commentary for the weekend goes to Luke Darcy when De Goey took a mark. He sounded like a constipated nuffy. "De Gooooooooeeeeeeeeeeyyy!!!!!"

    I'm cringing just thinking about it.

    Darcy makes BT sound like a half decent caller.

    I actually didn't mind the Viney call. I'd argue it's spine tingling. Darcy just sounds like a try hard though when he did it.

    Last time I spoke to him he really laid into Melbourne as being soft. Should run into him again soon so I shall just smile - widely.

    To bad for us, Bruce is commentating the cricket now.

    He wasn’t wrong, we were soft for years. I think Hawthorn played ahead of themselves this year and will go backwards next season.

    Some chat about Oliver being "looked at" for flopping. I was there but didn't see it. Any thoughts?

    More chance of Poppy or Sicily or someone else (can't remember who it was) getting done for staging

    Lmao, I distinctively remember that piece of commentary also. It’s like he was still yelling out his name whilst he was lining up ?

    Next time you see him, give him a punch in the nads from the people of Victoria

    Bruce is simply embarrassing. The first rule of a good commentator is that its not about themselves. Its about calling the game properly. We can all see whats going on. Stop being a fawning sychophant.

    Better still. Times up. Retire now.

    Unfortunately my night was marred by racist remarks directed at Salem and Jetta by a group of Hawthorn fans in Q1. Left me feeling down for the remainder of the match, but it was a great win by the boys. Go Dees

    That from 'supporters' of the team carried by Burgoyne and Rioli for so long.

    Hypocrites.

    • 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?
