Apart from loathing Geelong, it has to be the long game tonight. Yes, top spot is at stake, but a loss by Duckwoods mob at home is worth about 3 games I reckon. Go Dogs

    Fabulous and how about the shinana!  Should have been 50 against the Cats and a certain goal regardless.  Getting their usual armchair ride at the Cattery

    So the VIC government are paranoid about having crowds at games. And when they finally do allow crowds they put 3,500 people on each wing with absolutely no social distancing.

    Makes perfect sense.

    Good call. Its so strange. Probably the one in charge of internarional quarratine arrivals made the seating tonight.

    Since our lads have had recent prime time exposure, our family have learnt to turn the volume down on these excruciating clowns who claim to be commentators. Listening again tonight affirms that decision. Like 360 on Foxtel, it is simply not possible to listen for any length of time….

    Get permission from the government and then save $ by only opening up small sections.

    They could just open up certain gates and bars but ffs let people spread out.

    Their whole management or lack thereof  since the get go has been amateur hour to say the least.  They hit the panic button at the mere mention of more than two or three infections while NSW continue with "covid normal" with no lockdowns and just a few precautionary ad ons.

    They will drive this state's small business  sector in to a very deep ditch with their next over reaction if they haven't already.

    I’m so confused. I haven’t heard Brian Taylor continually question and deride the credibility of either of these teams. Must be saving it all up for when one of them is 6 goals in front -like he does when we are.

    Daisy is the only one I can listen to happily.

    Bulldogs lucky to be still in it.

    Geelong the cleaner team but not quite clicking in the last 70 metres

    Rowan showing the advantage of a third forward.

    Why is Hawkins being allowed to ruck against the lesser ruck in the forward line.. just a matter of time

    And Girlong has not had any covid since last september. Go and figure that. As far as I am concerned it should be a full house.

    Watching the game, I can’t help but realise how many Geelong players I hate.

    All of them?

    Duncan (knee) and Naughton (ribs) - big losses for both clubs if those injuries cause lengthy periods on the sidelines…

    Love the way Daisy is providing comments that contradict the idiots she has to share the booth with.

    It’s crazy isn’t it, almost like she understands modern footfall…

    Cats down two midfield rotations if Parfitt has joined Duncan on the sidelines

    Selwood just couldn't believe he was eventually penalised for throwing.

    SEN calling for a 50 meter - the "offender" was running full pelt when the mark was taken.  What is he supposed to do??? (Not sure what the idiots on 7 said).

    I hope the Dogs get up.

    • PREVIEW: Hawthorn

      Melbourne and Hawthorn who face off against each other this week have more in common than having once almost merged and about to wear a blue jumper with a red v triangle and an embroidered picture of a bird on the front. They also share the MCG as their main home ground, their supporters are associated with the leafy suburbs of Melbourne and in recent times, James Frawley graced the colours of both teams. Even more recently, both have bounced back from disastrous five game losing streaks to start off a season. Of course, the Hawks turned their bounce into a successful leap from the bottom of the ladder into a finals appearance, making it to the semifinals in 2024 and this year, they’re riding high in third place on the AFL table. The Demons are just three games into their 2025 bounce back, and are yet to climb their way out of the bottom four although they are sitting a game and percentage out of the top eight. However, with the current sportsbet odds of $3.90 to win this week’s encounter, it seems a forlorn hope that their upward progression will continue much longer.

    • 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.
