    digital delay.. agree it renders the service impossible for use at the ground.

    The old transistor I am afraid is the only way.. you can buy them at the $2 shops still but few other places.

    Thanks for that, but I'm at home following it on the AFL website. No Foxtel. Will have to dig out an old radio out of the cupboard.?

    Mate, you said he's a dead eye in front of goals. He's now playing back because Hore is injured. Before that he was forward. Fool.

    also, fritsch had 7 uncontested marks in the first quarter playing back flank. I'm convinced you dont even know who fritsch is at this stage. up your medication dosage

    Corporate box with Wisper and Gil again Red? 

    I should be so lucky. Sitting with the Blue morons who call ball even before a tackle. Hilarious. One bloke said the umpires have cost them. Actually very funny. I said to one bloke we have had 100 more possessions and kicked badly for goal, did he agree. He wasn’t sure.

    Is that most Tommy has ever kicked? 

    Equal highest (he kicked 6 vs Collingwood last year).

    Hopefully his ankle comes good for the last quarter.


    What's wrong with TommyMac?

    Well that was certainly a better quarter to watch. Just hope we can hold on with these injuries 

    don't you know that they're no excuse?

    Preuss has done very well against Pizza Face

    That wasn't Pruess after half time.  He has a stand in that just looks & plays like him.  I've been reliably informed by a few on here throughout the year that he can't play more than one half ?

    OK. Sounds like TMac done also. One on bench. Hore broken collarbone.


    TMac hobbling might be 3 down

    Really? I would have thought digital would have been no delay? Nothing better than listing to the crackle of the old transistor at the ground.

    Could anything be more Melbourne than McDonald being injured after kicking 6?! 

    Why?!

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      Melbourne and Hawthorn who face off against each other this week have more in common than having once almost merged and about to wear a blue jumper with a red v triangle and an embroidered picture of a bird on the front.  They also share the MCG as their main home ground, their supporters are associated with the leafy suburbs of Melbourne and in recent times, James Frawley graced the colours of both teams. Even more recently, both have bounced back from disastrous five game losing streaks to start off a season. Of course, the Hawks turned their bounce into a successful leap from the bottom of the ladder into a finals appearance, making it to the semifinals in 2024 and this year, they’re riding high in third place on the AFL table. The Demons are just three games into their 2025 bounce back, and are yet to climb their way out of the bottom four although they are sitting a game and percentage out of the top eight. However, with the current sportsbet odds of $3.90 to win this week’s encounter, it seems a forlorn hope that their upward progression will continue much longer.

    • 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.
