[censored] I wish the Weed was as good as Curnow…

Could’ve grabbed McKay too (one of the few mistakes JT has made).

    Then we wouldn't have had the glory of Tom McDonalds after the siren goal in the Grand Final.

    (surely a trivia question this year at your local pub trivia...)

    Can see why we got rid of Hannan.

    He isn’t surrounded by much. Naughton aside their forwardline is full of plodders. 
    Instead of constantly stocking up their midfield they should have gone and found some defenders and forwards.

    Essendon on the bottom 🤣 Hope the lions do a number on them. There leading goal kicker is out for covid reasons. By the way how came they don't have to travel until round 9, yet we as reigning premiers we have to travel r2.

    There's one for your frees not paid tally Demonland - how that wasn't a chop of the arms against Cripps in the English marking contest I'll never know.

    Love Essendon on the bottom, but the travel thing, I don't care that we travel (I used to hate it), but now we are just as scary on the road as we are at home. Every team fears/respects us anywhere, I think it is amazing that we are now easily the best travelling side. Anywhere anytime as Max says. Kudos again to the coaching team for making this a strength.

    Goal of the year from Hannan. Give me that marvel over any dumb dribbler from the boundary.

    Big difference between Carlton this year and Melbourne last year.  Carlton cannot play much better then they are at the moment, Melbourne last year had heaps of upside to come.

    This is the problem with playing hectic footy. It’s unsustainable for four quarters. Carlton look so tired and are incredibly lucky Dogs can’t kick a goal.

    • 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.
