Now it's saying Chandler is our medical sub

Prefer Jones , he has the experience and had asked he can adjust to the pace instantly, also more versatile in terms of the position he can play

    Its funny Ch 7 saying ...."Petracca, is there a better player in the competition"? So much hype...

    I feel like hes still got a heap of improvement to come and hes really just starting to hit his straps now....

    Absolutely pathetic crowd again this week. We will be outnumbered by Swans fans at our own home game. Incredible 

    You would hope not. Christ what more can you ask for this team. I wonder if people thinks it's to hard to come to the footy now with booking tickets & people are still wary about venturing out.

    Light drizzle here at the moment but it may not effect the game as I am in Northern Europe and it is 11am.

    Chandler in as the sub

    Like the cut of the jib of this young fella. Will get his opportunity in due course.

    Time to settle accounts Demons... call in the taxidermist.

    I think it's this, people get their normal reserved seat against the Blues next week I think it will help crowd numbers


    I'm in the MCC & got stuck beside 4 swans fans. Just my luck. 

    But yeah even the members should be out here in force

    There’s a fair amount still streaming in, they were just having a dart and enjoying some hot jam donuts.

    Alright, here, in my seat. For what will be the last time with this stupid ticketing system. Even with a low crowd they make heavy weather of it.

    Go Dees.

    Tough to get a vb in these parts. However I think a glass or two of a good red might go down well.

    You have to give preference to the young blokes, so I’m pleased to see Chandler as sub.

    No win since 2010 @ the G must surely go tonight.


    Kozzie show coming up...

    What's with the socks?

    Good pick up. They are disgusting. 
     

    Should've forced them to wear white. And white shorts. The filth would’ve

    • 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.
