The saints ruckman are actually paying attention to him. No easy marks behind the play

1 mark and 2 kicks is just not enough.

Did little last week.

I know he is a champ bit needs to lead by example

 

Stop talking the talk. Ml

 

Great to see us turn momentum around in the qtr very unusual for us. Lever and Tomlinson on key forwards is a worry for me. Max is looking lost at the moment, hopefully he can find his mojo quickly.

    Doing well against a good side - but still lack real class at the top end in order to finish off. Oliver is great, but Billings is dangerous, and that's the difference.

    Should be dropped after a good game! He's proven he doesn't have 2 good ones in him

    He wasn’t good!!

    Side note: Langdon is definitely a superior wingman to Hill and cost half the price. We nailed that trade!

    We have a half here to win the game, go to 2-0 and set up our season.  This is it.  The time is now. 

    There are no more excuses for Goodwin or anybody else and there are certainly no honorable losses.

    Keep two forwards in our forward half at all times, we win this game.

    First half of that second quarter we had no one one forward of 50 and it killed us.

    Viney getting caught with the ball was not his fault. He literally had nothing to go to.

    Would be hard to tell on TV.

    shame Kossie wasn't swaning by at that moment

    Calling you tmac.

    Plese dont let last week be an anomaly.

    I noticed late in the second you can hang off him in marking duels, no free but don’t try that on King. It must be an age, experience thing with the umpires. You know I always thought the rules applied equally to all players regardless of age.

    think the cab sav is killing my spelling ability.Just on the side cricket victoria is in deep trouble


    Pleased we fought back because alarm bells were ringing half way through that quarter. We don’t have enough weapons to drop off in the middle, it is our strength.

    It is Spud’s Game, but that doesn’t mean StK need to be helped to victory.

    You mean there's another team playing?

    Petracca needs to stand up in the second half.

    dazzle - can you please say that Fritsch can’t kick for goal, and that umpires can’t be even handed.

    Our forwards are horrible.

    McDonald is back to his 2020 form


    Kick it to our blokes

    Stupid and dangerous from Oliver. Lucky he didn’t knock the guy out. 

     

    My heart just missed a beat what was Oliver thinking very lucky

    • 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.
