    Eagles are down 12 players due to covid?!?!

    So Emperor McGowan hasn't banned Covid out of existence over there in the Hermit Kingdom? 😱

    Several Geelong platers have "clearly shown displeasure" when penalised but no 50s like in our practice game v Carlton.

    Even handedness or softening in interpretation?

    Do Geelong know this isn’t a final?

    Geelong just look so slow, as in their finals of 2021.     And pretty undisciplined as well.

    Geelong are so good to watch. Said nobody ever.

    Swans look the business so far. J Cameron Justin just hasn’t been able to make an influence in his time at Gtown.

    Early days but either Sydney are an awesome team in the making or Essendon are rubbish

    Considering all players would be triple vaxxed why are they being knocked so hard?

    I know of a doc who hit the kerb falling from his bike whose helmet split open  but who only had a mild headache.  He would almost certainly had a severe head injury, quite possibly death. 
    I certainly wouldn’t cycle without one. No guarantees but it helps. 

    I had the same experience.

    Without the helmet it would have been a fractured skull.

    Surely players know they can rush a point in that scenario??

    There was another one paid against Hickey and I still can't see why it was against him. One player don't jump as high and he's getting the Free. Look out Max.

    I am well over 50 and my kids tell me I keep banging on about certain BS, repeating myself over certain things. Well I'm going to do it again and hopefully not annoy all my fellow Demonlanders.

    Heeney is a gun. I reckon he is the cleanest player in AFL bar none.

    I'm not watching the game but I see 14 scoring shots to the Swans and 13 to Geelong.
    They must be getting it up their end at least.

    Sydney are a quality side. Geelong needs to bugger off. I’m sick and tired of seeing the same bloody players doing the same bloody things. 

    AND they only play well ONLY at Jeelong Moggie house for decrepit old and unloved dussies , but exchange the d for a p weak as footy team

    WA has a very narrow definition of a 'close contact':  15 minutes if both not wearing a mask.  So most of the players probably don't have covid but are caught under that definition and have to isolate for 7 days.

    It can happen over and over again to WA teams.

    • 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?
