ah, soundgarden - 91 was a helluva year

Epic decade of rock. Me, I think One Hot Minute is the RHCPs epic album, it’s ridiculous. What’s the cutoff date, does it  capture Alice in Chains’s Dirt?

 

Just saw two blatant throws by Geelong in a few seconds - OK umpires, you have done your job - now even up the numbers

Rowan loves himself

 

Giants need to run in numbers…

We were down by 44pt against Geelong in the third. Anything is possible

But both GWS and Geelong look so tired, don't see any kind of run happening


GWS is embarrassing. Their forwardline is more abandoned than Melbourne after 9pm.

Umpires giving dubious frees left right and centre to Jeelong but  GWS are embarrasingly inept

Yes, and yes

I really don;t think we should be all that worried about playing Geelong next week. They are old and slow and there for the taking

 

My great insight for the evening.
 

there are so many dislikable players in this Geelong side 🤮

 

Hawkins - miraculously clumsy when it suits him (eg. highly tackles, errant elbows)

Dangerfield - smug 

Selwood - jerk

Smith - hated him at Hawthorn

Cameron - looks like Smith

Guthrie - white guy with locks 

Miers - white guy with locks & a stupid first name 

Rohan - I think even Geelong supporters don’t like him

Umpires so clearly Love Heelong

Well, quite. Outshined too. This could get quite lively. 

who knew there was such an SG contingent here!

did you see them? I was lucky enough to see them at GC Big Day Out in 2012. I’ll never forget it. We’d just moved to the northern rivers from Melb, and when SG came on, a summer storm rolled in with lightning and thunder as Searching started

Kanye was an anti climax after that.

just lightning, rain and SG. Epic. 

 

 

I actually saw their 2nd last gig before they split first time at Horden Pavilion in Sydney around 96-97. 

Also saw Audioslave at same venue! I lived in USA when Superunkown  was released and loved it. Badmotorfinger had been on high rotation on cassette in my car for 2 years prior!

They were shot at 3 quarter time last week. To be fair they've been on the road for about 3 months plus their two best forwards out, it's gotta take its toll.

Pretty ordinary game

Agree wholeheartedly


Game looks over - but come on Mumford, where are you?  Wipe that smug look off Smith's face.

Toby should be ashamed, but probably isn't.

Mumford has a chance after the siren - goal ... now get out and take on Hawkins fist to fist, and add in Selwood and that smug Smith

Their best player has only himself to blame. Their forwardline is a disgrace and he could make a massive difference. 


Give a Mummy a few rails at the break and let’s see what happens 

Mummy gives the Giant's a heartbeat. See, I told you all they should put Mummy forward and bomb it on his head 10 pages ago.

GWS skills are substandard. 

Just their skills!  If they didn't have Whitfield....in the words of BT "Boy oh boy"

Putrid final to watch.  Worse with Taylor and Brayshaw.

CH7 really need to find decent callers.

we will get smug Chris Scott all week now.

  • REPORT: Hawthorn

    Melbourne and Hawthorn who face off against each other this week have more in common than having once almost merged and about to wear a blue jumper with a red v triangle and an embroidered picture of a bird on the front.  They also share the MCG as their main home ground, their supporters are associated with the leafy suburbs of Melbourne and in recent times, James Frawley graced the colours of both teams. Even more recently, both have bounced back from disastrous five game losing streaks to start off a season. Of course, the Hawks turned their bounce into a successful leap from the bottom of the ladder into a finals appearance, making it to the semifinals in 2024 and this year, they’re riding high in third place on the AFL table. The Demons are just three games into their 2025 bounce back, and are yet to climb their way out of the bottom four although they are sitting a game and percentage out of the top eight. However, with the current sportsbet odds of $3.90 to win this week’s encounter, it seems a forlorn hope that their upward progression will continue much longer.

  • 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.

    The Demons return to the MCG to take on the High Flying Hawks on Saturday Afternoon. Hawthorn will be aiming to consolidate a position in the Top 4 whilst the Dees will be looking to take a scalp and make it four wins in a row. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • 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.
