Some funny vision was Spargo sitting on the bench and has a chat on the phone.  Was it to the Coach?  'Cos Goody was sitting right behind him (also on the phone).  LOL

    Saw this quote tonight which I thought you would all enjoy:

    If you want to measure an angle, use a protractor.  If you want to win a game, use a Petracca.

    Saw that at the time and had a chuckle but I don't think it was Goodwin, I think he handed that off to Richo in the box and was listening in.

    Did Goodwin make enough changes for everyone's liking? Or did he have nothing to do with the win? Just thought I'd check in with the 'sack Goodwin' mafia on here

     Have a look at the Melbourne girl with the flag saying its a goal, it's a goal. Made me laugh out loud and the goal umpire agreed.

    Richardson in the box

     That was an ugly win, but we’ve had two ugly losses to cats and bears so it’s all swings and roundabouts

    Saints recruiters would be feeling a bit flat about that draft you would think.

    When they got hold of us, it was because we backed off the gut running.  As soon as we lifted this rating, they had nowhere to go.  We actually showed that they are a one trick pony, and you will see other teams go to school of that.

    Thought we had a system that help up.  Our basic skills let us down often, but the effort got us back into it.  Several performances to like, but the defense was superb and Trac is awesome.  Max made a difference, even though he had a tough competition in the middle and looked a little proppy.  Viney tea high 6 tackles.  Kozzi needs to commit and keep his feet. Waiting for the oppo to take the ball then tackle them (then going to ground) is not a winning strategy.

    I am so happy for Steven May. I hope the media give him the credit he deserves. He has been outstanding all season and tonight he was just so reliable. 

    Langdon is becoming a very good player. I can see why we wanted him. 

    Trac set it up beautifully in the 1st quarter. 

    I'm just happy. It's a relief to get a win and against a team that was above us.

    Fair call. Maybe not Jones but his Wagmer call was good.

     Ratten should go back to Carlton he doesn't belong in St.Kilda. Cleary his eyesight is gone, I saw it over the line and called a goal but why wasn't it paid a mark it was wasnt it or do I have Rattens glasses on. Close to goal of the year. 

    Best user name on this forum, just quietly

    About 30 years.  But that was pretty bad - I can't remember kicking directly to opponents more than today.

    So, just curious - is there anyone who still questions the value of recruiting Steven May?

    May is a jet...and if we take a King we (probably?) don’t take Jackson...I’m content

    • PREVIEW: Hawthorn

      Melbourne and Hawthorn who face off against each other this week have more in common than having once almost merged and about to wear a blue jumper with a red v triangle and an embroidered picture of a bird on the front. They also share the MCG as their main home ground, their supporters are associated with the leafy suburbs of Melbourne and in recent times, James Frawley graced the colours of both teams. Even more recently, both have bounced back from disastrous five game losing streaks to start off a season. Of course, the Hawks turned their bounce into a successful leap from the bottom of the ladder into a finals appearance, making it to the semifinals in 2024 and this year, they’re riding high in third place on the AFL table. The Demons are just three games into their 2025 bounce back, and are yet to climb their way out of the bottom four although they are sitting a game and percentage out of the top eight. However, with the current sportsbet odds of $3.90 to win this week’s encounter, it seems a forlorn hope that their upward progression will continue much longer.

    • 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.
