This game was not as important as the Swans losing, but wonderful to see the umpires lose a game they tried to win.

Good weekend.

OMG the Bont free kick situation has got completely out of hand

I only saw a few minutes but that last gift goal was an absolute travesty - dropped the ball in a tackle then gifted the free. 

You know the Bont is winning the Brownlow just by how much the umpires love and protect him 

 

This isn't as good a result for us as people think.

If we go 2-1 from here and the Dogs go 2-0, the Dogs will finish above us - even with this loss, we still have to win all three games, and/or the Dogs have to lose to Hawthorn or Port (in Melbourne), for us to finish above them.

It's certainly possible (Port's in form, for example), but it's still not that likely.

But Essendon's win puts them in pole position to finish in the top 8, particularly if we beat West Coast tomorrow (Essendon has the percentage buffer over all their competitors).

Last night I said GWS had given up on the season.

Today I said the bombers looked horrific.

And, last week I said how glad I was that Peter Wright didn’t come to us.

Im on a roll folks!


The umpires tried but failed

 

this weekend has shown the teams playing for finals spots are dangerous opponents. WCE are in danger of dropping out so we have to bring our A game. A slow start is not acceptable tomorrow

 

You do realise that Essendon have an easy last 2 games and will probably make finals now and we have to put up with there arrogant fans. They are actually not a bad team & could cause some trouble. 


What a weekend for Melbourne. .Started of hoping to stay in the top four ended up playing for top spot. Just get it done.

Bont clearly has won the Brownlow. Umpires fawn over the bloke. It’s sickening.

If Clarry got the same love he would win it this year with the highest votes EVER

Nah. Don't stress. 2 meter Peter will never play a game like that again and the bombers wouldn't kick as straight again. They'll do nothing in finals

Yep ive had both WCE and Freo out of a finals series thats played in Perth.

This season just keeps on giving.

100% HTB  No grey area. But even if not HTB, dangerous tackle?! Is that ump for real?

So some people are already celebrating top spot and we have not even played yet. And top spot means nothing until the end of the final series.

Did we just Steven Bradbury to spot? 

We haven't done anything yet.

First we have to win tomorrow. That puts us on top.

Then we have to outdo Geelong and the Bulldogs by a game, because we'll only be half a game in front.

So, if we beat West Coast tomorrow, and then Adelaide, but lose to Geelong, both Geelong and the Dogs will pass us unless they lose another game (which requires Geelong to lose to St Kilda, or the Dogs to lose to Hawthorn or Port).

Numeeo Uno beckons.

Its in our hands.

  • 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?
