We win because we were in front at half time. So if Kossie had missed we would have lost and were 32 point in front.

Not the rule. If the game is past halfway, team in front as the scores are when called off are the winners.

Absolutely. Thank WA government and their [censored]. Could have played yesterday but no, 7 days to quarantine 🙄 coz 6 is not enough but 14 is too much. Flogs. 

Exactly. Political posturing masquerading as Pseudoscience.

He has been amazing today. Would almost say today has been a more complete performance than last week. 

Rising star surely. 

Attacking the marks, brilliant at ground level!! Loved his work tonight.

What I was told was the game would normally continue with lightning but the metal plate in McGovern’s head attracts the lighting so the players had to clear the ground.

How big is Kozzies goal on the siren now?

I think it is whoever in front when they stop the game not who is in front at half time.  You need to start the 3rd qtr for it to be a result

I know that, you know that - why don't the commentators whose job it is to know this stuff and who p;layed the bloody game know that!

Pretty sure they changed the rules after the Essendon/St.Kilda blackout game at Waverley in the early 90s

Not liking the idea of sending our guys back out cold, sounds like soft tissue territory.

100% - not feeling great about this.

If it ends this way it's kind of a downer just in the sense we want to roll them.

David King is saying if I'm Melbourne I'm saying nah that's it. He said why would you want your players cooling down then running back out there. If we lose any key players to hammys or groins I will be filthy

No, the ruling is that if the game has reached half time, the team in the lead when it is called off, gets the four points.

I would have thought so too. How would it be if West coast were in front at half time yet we were 6 goals up now. You wouldn't have to worry about the anti vaccine protesters, MFC members would be coming!

Can we all just agree to disagree and award us the win.

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.

    Once again the club’s top goal scorer but he had a few uncharacteristic flat spots during the season and the club will be looking for much better from him in 2025.

    After sustaining a torn ACL in the final match of the 2023 season Jake added a bit to the attack late in the 2024 season upon his return.

    2024 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem

    The luckless Salem suffered a hamstring injury against the Lions early in the season and, after missing a number of games, he was never at his best. He was also inconvenienced by minor niggles later in the season. This was a blow for the club that sorely needed him to fill gaps in the midfield at times as well as to do his best work in defence.

    The first round draft pick at #13 from twelve months ago the strongly built medium forward has had an impressive introduction to AFL football and is expected to spend more midfield moments as his career progresses.
