    Dogs didn't make it to the grand final by accident. Was always going to be a battle. May not right it seems, and that in itself is enough to swing it their way. But a few unsighted: Langdon not being Langdon is surprising, but Tom Mac might as well not be out there (except he takes their second defender, which isn't saying much.)

    Not sure here - they have not just the talent, but the experience.

    Terrified, the one thing I felt I could trust all year is falling down. How many scores from entries did the Dogs get? 

    Not executing, for some reason the jitters came in that quarter. The one thing I take out of it is it happened early. I really hope that is the Bulldogs best shot fired. I hope our fitness takes over, I hope we get more clean footy in the 50 and kick more goals.

    Umps clearly told to make it a close game. Just disgraceful.

    Pressure is off, f50 connection and i50 pressure is off.. contested possessions off. Lots of bad stats taking shape. 
     

    Only positive thing is that our i50 count is healthy. But we don’t have good structure and the Doggies murdering us in the rebound transition.

    Dogs could not have had a better quarter, remain calm.

    Just can't see us winning. Never could. This Dogs team at their absolute best was always better than our best. We were just better for longer throughout the season. They are a super, super team.

    This feels like a repeat of round 19, not round 11.

    Not looking good right now.

    That’s true. I don’t think they can replicate this.


    We need someone tall to go To BONT when he goes forward... Viney isnt the right match

    Viney killed the momentum with that kick into the forward line that quarter, why the hell did he not get in front of bont to stop his run.

    Bont was always the one to tag. So completely obvious from all our previous meetings.

    It really is up to Oliver, Viney and Tracc they must get back control of the stoppages. Hopefully May settles down, really struggling tonight.

    How do we stop it. My fear is they now know their pressure game beats ours, because their skills are better. More contributors needed.

    • 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?
