Tigers slowing down with so many injuries on the bench. Gotta hold on here.

    Hi Forkie. Tigers were wavering until Bolton scored in the third I think and that gave them a sniff. Now that they've been able to score two in the last whilst simultaneously burning 8 minutes off the clock I think they've probably got this one now. 

    Meh.

    Though they might've helped us hold top 4 I'd love to see them free fall back to the bottom of the ladder.
    And stay there.
    With Essendon.
    And Collingwood.
    And Geelong.
    And Hawthorn.
    And the Eagles.
    Oh ... And Carlton.

    Let's hope they've got a little more in the tank for next week. Then they can fall in a heap.

    Thug Nankervis kneeing a grounded Bear in the chest- no penalty and presumably no MRP scrutiny - though they are playing Geelong next week so could be offered one week.

    Win tomorrow and I can’t see us missing the top 4. But we need to win and win well!

    No we need them to beat Geelong next week. Then fall in a heap forever.

    I cannot stand Jack Riewoldt. What an egotistical show-pony -- everything's always gotta be about him.

    J Riewoldt - 6 goals in his 300th.

    If you’re not a fan, I urge you to not watch AFL 360 next week with Gerard and Slobbo. They might make a passing reference or 2 during the week.

    Nice softie in front of goal for him to finish off.

    Guy hasn't won the hardball when a match was on the line in his career. At least 2/3 of his career goals must have been in junk-time.

    And he’s supposed to be the best caller on the land who will be calling this years grand final.

    Dennis and Bruce ought to be embarrassed that they’ve handed over the chief commentary duties to Taylor.

    Not only have Brisbane lost their last two but they've dropped around 10% as well. If we get up tomorrow it's hard to see us playing interstate in September, covid not withstanding of course.

    • REPORT: 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.

      The Demons return to the MCG to take on the High Flying Hawks on Saturday Afternoon. Hawthorn will be aiming to consolidate a position in the Top 4 whilst the Dees will be looking to take a scalp and make it four wins in a row. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • 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.
