How was that a free to WCE right on the siren? Luckily one of the brain dead umpires stopped it.

    Jackson, Gawn, Brown, Lever, May, Petty, all been very good.

    Talls standing up in the wet is very good to see.

    Kelly is a bit too dangerous for my liking - I'd want to see Harmes go to him.

    Bowey still as clean as you'd hope to see from a 1st year player.

    2 goals outside 50 what can you do.

    Kennedy's kick for goal though, complete miss kick.

    Not pretty but I’ll take a 14pt lead in Perth a quarter time any day. A bit more clinical finishing and we could be further in front. 


    Interesting quarter.  We looked good to start but then the umpires started to exert a bit more control on the game and swung it the home team's way. 

    Bowey has been excellent. Playing in that cesspool listening to the Booers in the wet, and he’s looked very clean

    Yeo and Kelly got off the leash that last 5 minutes. Some lazy efforts by Petracca in not standing next to Yeo at the stoppage.


    Just need a complete lock down job on Kelly. He's there only way back.

    Thought West Coast did well to stay in touch with their 2 good goals 

    They are at it again.Time differential to kick from stoppage.Blocking off the ball.

    Some one tell the umpires it’s wet weather footy. An arm in the wrong place that does not impede a WC player should not be a free.

    Good stuff so far. They started to get the initiative back late, but what I’ve liked is our forward fifty use. Eyes down and in quickly. If no mark is taken, then we are keeping our heads when the ball hits the deck.

    Their goals also have been earned. No softies.

    Let’s get this done!


    Deadset has there ever been a worse sports commentator than BT?

    Has a CLOSE UP of Hunt getting treated on the sideline. Zoomed in on his face: “Langdon getting treated here”.

    Petty just about has his jumper ripped off him: “Call against Petty here I reckon. Oh it’s going the other way!”

    Just quit you oaf. Quit today and never return.

    Is Darling even playing? Wearing a Lever blanket to keep him warm

    I've seen too many games where he's made us pay. Really enjoying this so far

    • 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.
