    They have lost a gf and now a prelim by a total of 9 points. Admittedly if that was us you would be totally gutted. 

    Not sure how much coverage it will get in sydney but they got there.

    Well at least Jordan D'Goey will be right for the pre season with his magic hamstring work done by Hans. 

    Just saw Kevin Sheedy will present the cup if the giants win. 

    Well Bucks is free to present the norm smith medal now. It's his turn. But I get why they got Simon Black to do it.

    I know it has already been mentioned but spare a thought for $cully....sucka! I think Amon Buchanan's celebrations were directed right at him

    Is it just my poor judgement or was Grundy completely ineffectual? Huge amount of hitouts but that was a consequence of GWS’ game-plan.

    Each gf day I have a bet on the 1st goal kicker. Toby Greene might be a good choice. 

    But has someone told the GWS supporters that there is a gf parade on the day before and it would be probably be nice for the giants to have some supporters there.

    I can do that will take a couple of hours, the first being driving out to their place.

    Which poor bugger will get dropped for Toby?

    Greene in for Ian Hill. 

    Whitfield in for Keefe. 

    Would they risk coniglio coming in after a couple months off? Pretty hard to drop someone else for him too.

    I'll be wanting Richmond to win this one, there's something about GWS being premiers before we break our drought that really sickens me. Also was kinda hoping for a Pies v Tigers GF more the atmosphere but seeing their fans devastated is also enjoyable.

    I'd forgotten that Eddie will be hosting Grand Final edition of Footy Show this week! I might even watch now...

    Still giving away tickets tho, used to sell out in minutes now can't fill it

    Yeah I can remember when they used to send Garry down to ticketek and it would be sold out in 10 minutes. The only bad thing about the footy show is Sam will be back and who knows what rant he will go on about. On the other hand Trev is back and I'm sure he will have a few jokes coming Ed's way.

    Some in the media have been giving him votes ahead of Haynes. Baffling

    Hill would be really stiff to miss out. Played a very good game

    But it will be someone

    Amazing, they obviously watched a different game to me. He played for frees and was gifted hitouts.

    Couldn't be happier that Greater Western Sydney have triumphed over Colliwobbles this evening. Suffer in your jocks pies. Further, I hope GWS go all the way and stick it right up Richmond's cloak(a) and up 'em all.

    73 hit outs, 25 possessions and got most points on the AFL.Com site, so statistically best on ground. But yes I thought he could set up a Pies win in the last 10 minutes by palming it out wide but he tended to grab it himself or drop it short when he was totally in control. Mummy battled hard but in that last 5 minutes Grundy should have manufactured something, given his dominance.

    He may look ok statistically but it was  pleasing that Jeremy Howe had no real influence .Also saw Lyndon Dunne mooching around in the rooms afterwards. Collingwood are now 2 flags in the last 60 years so all in all a wonderful day .

    At least we can wake up in the morning and not have this awful realisation that collingwood are in another grand final. 

    Grundy dominated but he also botched it as well. I feel if that was gawn in those final hitouts he would have handled the situation better and tapped it straight down the throat of one of our blokes or just smashed it forward.

    Let’s just hope a few of our blokes were watching both Prelims and realize how hard they need to work to step up

    • 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.
