    Incredible win by May and Trac! Well done lads, ice up and look to carry the team next week.

    What a breath of fresh air on the after game show too...

    Word just in May has been charged with regicide after tonight's performance.

    May saved it. 

    Trac won it.

    Oliver rose when it mattered in the last. 

    Unusual to see us win when we don’t have control of playing our way.

    That was a true grinding win.

    Good tough win under pressure against a side above us on the ladder, and we didn’t really play our best, but showed real grit.

    My nerves were on end, what a relief!

    May and Trac were outstanding.

    It was nerve racking but geeze we sure looked composed in the last 5 minutes 

    Umpire should have paid a free against Saints player holding the ball. It was effing blatant.

    We just beat a top 4 contender with about 8 passengers.

    That could define our season.

    We need to drop the passengers off at the next stop and pick up their replacements - Fritter and co.

    Game plan wasn't helter skelter

    Game plan was the same as it has been for weeks. We just implemented it.

    Narrow grounds help.

    I seriously thought Clarry had money on saints he was turning it over so much in the 3rd. 

    Absolutely stoked with the win. Gutted because out of anger from last week I tipped against us.

    Off to Cazaly. I think we're undefeated there.

    Some moron commentator ( don’t know his name, don’t care) on ABC radio is talking about the heat and the humidity - currently 17C and 15% humidity.

    Must have his head somewhere warm and dark.

    Don't want to hear another word about the trade for May, i think his performances over the season and especially tonight have justified the pick 6.

    A trade special.

    And increased our leadership stocks big time.

    The nerve of the umpire to call Brown’s kick at the end not 15 metres.

    Yep that was 25 metres easy

    My heart has only just stabilised.

    Huge win. Steven May is becoming one of the best recruits we've had for an eternity. 

    Credit to Goody,  we stopped their run,  exactly what we all asked for and it won us the game.

    Hoohar!!!

    I don't know how we won that.

    Actually I do. Goodwin. We completely outcoached the Saints tonight, took away their one wood and they had nothing else. If we lost it was going to be because the killed us on the outside, Butler, Hill, Kent, Billings etc None of those guys had much influence tonight, we set up extremely well defensively and shut them down.

    Petracca is a gun, hopefully it's eating the Saints supporters tonight seeing him kick 4 including what proved to be the matchwinner

    Hibbered in the last 1 minute of the game saved us with a game saving tackle.

    That's as courageous as it gets after looking like he wouldn't come back on.

    • 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.
