Wasn't having a go Sue @McQueenĀ @Bobby McKenzieĀ @Ethan TremblayĀ can all tell you how bad the media are over here. They never say anything against the EaglesĀ 

The West Australian and Channel 7 WA are absolute cheerleaders and the continued worship for Cousins, Kerr etc is an embarrassmentĀ 

Absolutely. You can add Mainwaring to those names as well.Ā

    Happy to say I got the Liam Ryan call wrong, never thought he'd put the hard yards in to play consistent footy at this level

    Credit to him and the hardwork put in by Phil Narkle and Ryan

    Best half he has played. Good time to do it

    I know this may sound stupid but I never actually realised how good Nic Nat's ruck work is. His leap is brilliant and they look so much better when he is in the centre taking the ruck contest. I still think he doesn't do enough around the ground and could be more dominant.

    Hopefully west coast put there foot down this quarter and kick away. Smsh them and don't let essenscum back in it.Ā

    He pushed the boundaries in the off season and I thought there was another Sampi coming but after blowing off some steam he got right back into it, with some strong guidanceĀ 

    One reason why we should never let Nev Jetta leave the club

    Yes how ridiculous they used to have a charity match in honour of him. I'll leave it there because he has passed but a tainted man in many ways

    Shielā€™s kicking has let himĀ down tonight however his run and carry would be very handy.Ā

    Yep and remember Chad Fletcher basically flat lining I think in Vegas. That was swept under the carpet to. Sadly I fear Cousins will headĀ one way to.Ā 

    Anyway 1 more quarter and hopefully we see the bummers out. Stringer I know is an easy target but when he just stood there and waited for the ball to come to him instead of going for the mark in the goal square was funny.Ā

    That Flat lining was incredible. It would have been 5 x the story if It had not been in Perth

    My moneyā€™sĀ on him coming west and coaching FremantleĀ or if Longmuir gets the job, some otherĀ role at Fremantle. Heā€™s done at Essendon. I believe his wife and kids have already moved back here.Ā

    • REPORT: West Coast

      On a night of counting, MelbourneĀ 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 atĀ 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 ruckmanā€™s masterclass in the second half.Ā  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipperā€™s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, aĀ career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested),Ā 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.Ā

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0ā€“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.
