    One more quarter to go, season on the line. The next 20 minutes will tell us how much this club wants to play finals. 

     

    This.

    This is the real test of where we are at as a club. Forget the draw, the hub  the travel. Forget everything. 

    How much do we want it.

    GWS can lose and make finals still.

    This is an elimination final for us. 

    It is members thank you round. Dess fans have tipped in money for that jumper.

    Time to stand up dees.

    Go redlegs

    Is it a fair criticism to say that Viney cannot read the play ahead. He sees the ball and gets it or attempts to every time. Sometimes you need to make a judgement on what is likely to happen...not always go in head first.

    Maybe not the right thread for it...apologies if so

    Not the sharpest tool in the shed but one cannot fault his endeavor and commitment

    I agree. I don't think we can carry Fritsch even when he's kicking goals. His non defensive efforts kill us.

    At about round 8 I would say we couldn't afford to drop him. Every time I see him recently I feel like throwing something at the tv. Can't believe how much I was looking forward to watching how his season was going to play out.

     

    Even the taters are asking what we need to do to get Weid into the match.  He's having one of his many too many mares

    Lever's inboard turnover goal turned the game when we were 3 goals up

     

    Overpaid...

    Umps have decided the result already

    Its hard to win with umps like this.

    Hopper actually went under Oliver’s legs but I guess we never get those ... twice tonight.

    How the hell is that a free against Oliver?  Terrible decision.

    Why are we getting our legs taken time and time again? Have they forgotten this rule???

    Can Fritsch actually hold a mark. PLEASE.

    Weideman is killing us.

     

    Richo reckons it wasn't deliberate? I'm really really struggling to see the issue, he directly handballed in our of bounds, ON THE FULL

    • 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.
