I watched the Lions game... they look good.

I only saw highlights 

But i heard Fagan’s presser. He is giving players a chance to play with some natural flare. I think this is Goodwin’s biggest problem. He is all structure and gameplan

it is way too rigid, particularly on our home ground

    Hopefully we are not as bad as Freo or Adelaide - just watched 5 minutes and saw Hogan refuse to chase on three separate occasions. What a wasted or dare I say it - overrated talent!

    Hogan isn’t even a shadow of the player he was. Sad to see.

    From a kid with precocious talent who ends up a lolly pop man at road works. Will be out of the game by end of 21.

    If he pulls his finger out and fixes his attitude, I still think he could be a very good CHB. But probably more likely to go the way you think it will.

    Nah that’s a bit different story. I’ve misunderstood what you were saying. In that instance it should be a throw in. I didn’t see the footage of what you’re talking about. 

    Wish I could draw it as an example,  but I have seen guys allowed to run outside the boundary line for say 10-15 meters and then kick the ball into play and it it is all ok with the umpires.

    GWS 10.3 63 from 17 entries ....unbelievable stuff 

    Ridiculous! They are 75 points from 20 inside fifties in the last Q. Has to be a record

    You beat GWS by scrapping and playing the boundary.... see North v GWS

    If you take them on they will take you apart

    Every line packed with skill

    • 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.
