If it goes like it seems it will, how much pressure will Buckley be under, especially now his big brother protector has moved on?

When is Greene OOC and can we get him

 

i want a hated player playing for us 

3 years left to run

 

On Kayo tonight, I watched simultaneously GCS v CAR & COL v GWS. F'n great service for $5 a month.

The tackle wasn't out of the ordinary (wasn't paid as late) and Dursma's leg locks/hyper-extends as he lands causing him to buckle unpredictably. Nothing in it.

 

So you're saying the umpires never miss things?  The tackle was clearly late.  See what the medical report has to say, but if he's ended a kid's season through a late tackle then he shouldn't be playing the next week.  It shouldn't just be for concussions.

Goal Umpires are Redundant 

Are you saying they might go the way of the tram conductor? But i loved the tram connies....

 

Wow pressure on buckley now and he hasn't got his mate Ed there backing him up. Wonder how Ed enjoyed that tonight. 

I just can't believe they knocked the pies off by 5 goals, I mean the giants are so injury depleted and they are important players to.

Trouble at Mill in Pie Land

They booted the wrong players out


Hate to say it ... but Darcy Moore is so good.

And for some reason I don't mind Daicos. Pretty much hate the rest.

I might pop over to the Big Footy/Filth board.

Also saw a bit of Leicester v Newcastle on a split screen of the last quarter of GCS v CAR. Turned the sound down - was awesome... 

The filth. LOL

Would he be just as heartless in the red and blue??

One can only assume. 

id target Greene and Whitfield 

Saints beat WC and Giants beat pies.

Fair point about the umpires but after watching it about 10 times, I don't think the tackle is the major influence on the injury. His knee hyper-extends just before the follow-through of the tackle.

I'd be very disappointed if a player in a red and blue jumper - in the same situation - didn't lay the tackle.

Carlton and Gold Coast are both sh it.  
Either should be a 4 point given for us - if we’re fair dinkum 

That was an awful game.

Absolutely. He's one of the best players in the game right now.


A chance to knock those puddy cats outta the eight tomorrow and put a decent gap between the top three and the rest.  Let's go Demons!

Both are very good.

Here's a weird piece of trivia;

The last time both Melbourne and Carlton were both in the top eight at the end of a round was round 14, 2011.

The last time Melbourne, Carlton and Richmond were all in the top eight at the end of a round was round 7, 2001.

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

?

Tomorrow is now desperately needed as a win (like not life threatening or season ended or anytfing), will really seperate us as top 3 over a massive competing pack of teams to make the 8.

  • 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?
