The Dogs best footy is very good, while I don’t like the Dogs very much I love anybody beating Essendon. I hope it continues

    Interesting that the commentators didn’t say much negative about Essendon during that quarter. If it was us they’d put the boot in. I guess they don’t want to offend their large number of fans.

    Bruce's gushing commentary was next level last night.

    He's not doing much better tonight. His gushing is towards the first gamer Weightman and "Duck, Duck, Duck ...."

    Perhaps he could look at the replay and report back how many times he said "Duck" in a quarter? In which quarter did he say "Duck" the most? What was the longest interval between saying "Duck"?

    What a great quarter by the dogs. English has been great. Just hope they get another roll on, thrash the bummers and the bummers lose valuable percentage.

    I wanted him over Pickett in the draft when the word got around that we were after a small forward in the first round.

    Time will tell, but hopefully both will be guns and provide X-factor for the fans.

    Progress report;

    Weightman X, Pickett 0.

    Came here expecting this and there we go. Assuming it's a joke.

    No joke. He has the goods.

    Time we had some "truth in broadcasting"

    1. Location of commentators

    2. Crowd noise.... real or supplemented

    And while we're at it gt rid of Bruce and BT. Bruce has notes a la his old Olympic days about favourite players. It's boring.

    I don't need them to tell me "he kicks the ball forward" etc etc

    Bruce gushing over a bloke with four touches for the night because he 'covers the ground'.

    I've heard it all now.

    Thankyou Bulldogs!

    Big old dent in Essenscums percentage on top of the loss.

    Has Bruce ever given ANB that kind of love he is the master of those games.

    Essendon's percentage dropping by more 15 and going back down under 100, and likely dropping out of the eight, is always a welcome part of any round of football.

    It's a note on the sheet abotu how long scoring this season has been, too.  Our percentage may look pretty rough at 87% but that is still only a 40 point margin.

    Geelong's spot on the ladder is largely the product of their one good smashing... of Hawthorn.  Looking forward to us taking out turn!

    • 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.
