What, because they beat Brisbane? A side which hasn't made the finals since 2009?

Are you proposing we are a better side than Collingwood?

That day was symbolic for the Pies. A BOG average side, who we had the wood over for 4 straight games, finally broke the shackles and showed how talented a side they are and haven’t looked back.

    Watch the 4 teams who play on Good Friday suffer for playing on a sacred day. Good on Melbourne for not supporting it!

    Don't speak too soon. Razor Ray is booked in for Saturday. But David Rodan is one of the goal umpires. Hope Melbourne gives him plenty to smile about. Love his reaction when Melbourne kicks a goal.

    I loved his wry smiles when we thumped Carlton last year.

    didn't realise there was a second game on until you mentioned it.

    NM v Bombers is a snooze fest for me but I will watch the Eagles and Port. Hopefully Port puts up a decent show but I doubt it.

    I actually think the other way around.

    North V Dons should be entertaining while Eagles will likely strangle Port to a very low score in wet conditions.

    Essendon set to receive fine for playing Joe Daniher after he wasn't named to play. 

    Can’t think of any other time Essendon have broken the rules...

    Was thinking the same thing Demonland. Very smooth ride so far for the drug cheats.

    Might cost someone a top 4 or finals spot. 

    This is what we would expect from some galah that had just gone on to the ground dressed in an Umpire's uniform. That is what we got.

    If North would kick straight then they could possibly win. Not with that kicking though.

    I actually saw an Umpire give a free kick against TWSNBN in the First Quarter. I hope nothing happens in the CBD tonight.

    North are a waste of space.  Should have relocated to Tassie.

    • 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.
