If tmac has done his ACL we can continue this awesome form into 2020

    McDonald just says he “doesn’t think he did his ACL”. Jesus Christ! 

    This year is cursed. Horrible game. Skills are embarrassing. Season needs to end fast.

    Wow.

    That scoreline hilariously, and perfectly reflects where this team is at. We're 5 points better than the Blues, thanks to a goalpost.

    A draw would have been better, because I'm sure somebody in the club will actually see today as some sort of a win.

    Even though we won, I'm still disgusted. That was a pyrrhic victory.

    How many watching from home stood up from their couches and urged the Hannan kick to at least touch the post at the end?

    Kind of sums up the season, yeah, yeah, yeah then just ploop!

    We might not be able to field a team by the end of the season the way we are going

    Don't know the last time I saw a ball sit on the goal line. Too funny.

    That kick was the perfect summation of our season. Absolute joke.

    (Was a good kick don’t get me wrong, but how it just stopped on the line?!)

    I'm happy with the win, even if most on here will be negative. 3 down on the bench for the whole last quarter and we fought out a win. Wasn't pretty, but too show that heart says something about the group

    I love footy.

    I still love all of you.

    I'll be back another day, but don't be a [censored] - just enjoy a win.  No matter how bad it is.  I'd rather a W than an L.

    Cheers.

    Here is my prediction for 2019. Carlton will win a flag before we do.

    6 - Saty for having a whinge about the game day thread, in the game day thread, during the game. Comedy gold

    5 - MFCSS is alive and well, and something that needs some serious government funding to complete a study on

    4 - the $50 bottle of red I’m going to be getting from a bloke I work with for the win

    3,2,1 can go please themselves for all I care.

    WHen you consider it we gutsed it out in the last quarter even though I feel we were out on our feet.

    Sensational effort from Oliver, In just about every contest.

    Preuss was pretty handy actually

    I only started watching right about the time Carlton made a comeback so you can blame me.

    Hunt redeemed himself after being truly deplorable in that last quarter with disgusting skills.  Full credit to him.

    I look forward to watching the part where we dominated.

    If the focus this pre-season isn’t 100% about improving skills and decision making then Goodwin will be gone by halfway through next year.

    I've never seen it. Appropriate that it happened to us, especially this year. Like the rest of our footy this year, comedy gold (if you happen to be fortunate not to take it to heart), and tragic.

    • 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?
