And to think had we beaten the Hawks and hadn’t been stuffed by the umps against Crows that would be 76 pts. Not sure when a team has been minor premiers with that many pts.

    Lol! Chris Scott in presser saying they were disappointed because they controlled the game but didn't win. They lost 3 out of 4 quarters FFS!

    just sitting here, drinking a furphy, thinking about that time at KP when Gawn rose above the pack, sat on the Geelong players head and took a screamer.

    kicking the goal, after the siren, from 50 out

    put us on top of the ladder.

    The 2nd quarter was a horror show. So many players way down on output. they were unrecognisable from the team we've seen all year

    But we regrouped at half time and got to work. stemmed the bleeding in the 3rd and then produced the most significant quarter of football i've ever seen from this club. 

    This team has guts and belief to go with bags of talent. It will take us all the way this year in my humble opinion

    Lol Chris Scott saying they were in control. They played 20 (albeit near-perfect) minutes of football and we controlled the rest of the game.

    But he's minimising the disappointment which I suppose is understandable.

    Excuse me if this has already been posted but I think that’s the first time in our history we’ve won from a kick after the siren.

    That's the greatest win I've seen by MFC.  The most painful loss was 2018 down there at Kardinia Park when Toohey kicked a goal after the siren when we had been in front all night - yes in 60+ years following the club.  That just completely erased it - MAXY you GOD!

    Feic it, I think I’ll have a wee single malt or two to help me sleep. 
    I might watch the second half again while I do. Think I’ll  sleep like a baby

    My hunch ->

    3 Votes - M.....Gawn

    2 Votes - C.................Oliver

     

    For the drawn Brownlow with Bontempeli.

    • 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?
