Dons pose a bigger risk of Finals upsets than Eagles.

    Both Freo and West Coast can still make the eight. Only two outside that can.

    I enjoyed that game. Great atmosphere, seasons on the line. West Coast lose. Great stuff

    WCE should really chair Margetts off the ground...

    Lovely simple end to the H+A Season:

    Melbourne win, top of the ladder
    GWS/Essendon win, finals

    GWS/Essendon lose, WCE/Freo win, finals.

    It's all set up.

    Giants and bombers play blues and pies so no chance for WA teams

    Ch 7 news has just decreed that in their view Hawkins will not be charged. 
    So, nothing to see here. 

    I didn’t realise paying hundreds of millions for tv rights also allowed Channel 7 MRO voting rights, but there you go.

    You been watching this season. Sad part is ten wins might get you a finals game. Granted it most likely will take 11 wins.

    West Coast have to beat Brisbane in Brisbane and Freo need to beat St Kilda by a massive margin and hope Essendon lose to Collingwood. Good [censored] luck. 
    GWS play Carlton. Lol.

    AFL website says Hawkins and Dangerfield, no case to answer. 
     

    Predictable,  really. It was an act of foolish optimism to have posed the question in the first place…(with apologies to Monty Python)

    The worst thing about the Hawkins decision is you can almost guarantee if he was at small club he would have been suspended.

    Absolutely 100%. Annoys the F out of me that the cats get this free ride with the MRO. 

    Rules for one club, different for other clubs. 

    When it comes to the MRO’s ruling the first box that gets ticked is “Do they play for Geelong?”

    Yes = no case

    No = immediate suspension

    Actually yes. Game was in Tassie for one. Clarko on a mission to give Hawks board the fingers. Dogs lost Bruce so need time to adjust. 
    Freo’s list is decimated by injuries.

    My hopes for week 23

    We win the minor premiership

    Port lose to the doggies and finish 4th so play us in week 1 of finals

    West coast lose to Brisbane and miss finals

    The pies beat Essendon (they did it to us a few years ago maybe they'll repeat the trick against the bombers)

    Freo to beat the Saints who have nothing to play for thereby sneaking into 8th spot at the expense of Essendon

    That would be an epic final H&A weekend as far as i'm concerned

    Bit of a shame that freo winning means that essendon stay in the eight. 

    Essendon scare me more atm than west coast.

    You can’t count on much this year but the pies and blues being [censored] is the closest thing to a sure thing we have right now

    • 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?
