As much as Id like to see West Coast lose as they are in the finals every farkin season Id love to see the Sainrts get smashed.  They fluked a finals spot in last years clown covid hub circus.

    St Kilda reek of Melbourne 2019.

    Pre season injuries, lack of hunger, bath water etc...

    Probably preseason injuries... 

    Not a crack at you @Bring-Back-Powell, and jeeze I hate 'bathwater' as a catch-all phrase for, getting a head of yourself.

    No team... ever drinks their own bathwater... you don't think all coaches drill in to the players that they haven't achieved anything until they've won a premiership... (or the players don't understand this through all their coaching and know it innately?)

    Their gameplan has been torn to shreds... and they're quite a limited team...as evidenced by losing to us last year...

    I think we missed an opportunity to really touch up the saints.

    I'd prefer them to have a long slow painful death.

    While i like what the 'stand' rule has brought to the game between the arcs, the AFL really needs to fix it's application to the set shots for goal.

    There is sometimes strict interpretation and at other times none in terms of stepping off the line of the mark while taking a shot.

    Some players are getting called immediately taking a step or two as they arc out of their line, while others appear invisible to the umpire and are alowed to arc out and waltz towards the side of the man standing the mark without any adjudication.  With the latter (non-governance) gaining an extra 5 meters or more, sometimes the difference between a goal and falling a little short.

    A fundamental but obvious umpiring flaw that needs to be addressed and quickly.  Could be the difference in a tight game.

    @Rusty Nails, dont you get it mate ? - ambiguity is great for the game. It's great for debate, it frustrates people endlessly.

    Silence = apathy = death.

    Saints with a good fight back.

    So apparently no Hurn = no Eagles. They’ve been a disaster down back.

    33 points up and Eagles decided to go to Tullamarine. Haven’t seen them stop like this in a while.

    West Coast are just down hill skiers. Apply the pressure and they wilt

    Great response from the Saints after the Essendon horror show

    OK.   What the hell was in the saints bath water then?

    A win like this could reinvigorate their season. Very disappointing.

    Applying some Demonland logic here but if we beat the saints easily, the saints then beat West Coast doesn’t that mean….......we’ve gone past West Coast ?

    Better to have both on 2-2. Win tomorrow and we will be 2 games clear of both.

    • 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.

    • GAMEDAY: West Coast

      It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?
