Viney talking to the umpires. Stop it. It’s not helping your cause. 

It would be frustrating. They have been very inconsistent.

    Good to turn it around there but we had two turnover goals (Viney & Sparrow). 
     

    Our pressure game is on - but so is GC. The team that maintains that will win the game. We switched off after Q1 against the Hawks-- this game is looking very similar to that so far. 

    Maggots at it again short kicks illegal disposal and Viney's genuine effort to get rid of it, and the maggot paid against him.They are a disgrace to fair play worldwide.

    Need to work out why we give away so many frees, i dont believe every umpire hates us, we need to change

    Absolutely.

    You can’t just 100% blame the umpires when they’re just doing their job.

    Second to the ball too often.

    Good quarter, still think we are lairising too much with ball in hand.

    Trac needs to take the first option and get others involved

    Nice to play on a dry/fast deck for once

     

    So far, so good.

    Delivery into forward is more intelligent this week compared to other weeks. We aren’t always getting clean looks, but we are taking the percentage options more. If it’s not going to a one on one, it’s going to a genuine contest at least.

    We are being sucked up to clearances a bit much for mine though.

    Same here. Just close th app and restart it helps with me some times if it’s playing up.

    What is wrong with Kayo?

    It's owned by a moribund [censored]?

    Bowey looks good.

    Love how we have looked to play the Brayshaw wing instead of always the Langdon wing. 
    hunts disposal is a massive liability. 
    Viney must take first option.

    Jackson and Brown look good


    How the hell did that happen? Lucky play hasn’t started. Hot mess. 

    Oliver set shot on an angle....hmmmmm

     

    Whoa.

    Well if Olivers kicking goals from a set shot we are a lock...no ifs and or buts.

    I like the look of Bowey. Showed composure and used the ball well. Exactly the type of player we need.

     

    Oliver kicked a set shot.

    Dees by 100.

    • 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.
