I absolutely hate the thought of a roof being plonked on top of the night G, f k Eddie.

That was a really enjoyable hard scrabble game in slippery conditions.

    Looking forward to Chris Scott's delicious salty tears on 360 tonight.

    Interesting game in the context of the top 4.

    You would think that we and Brisbane will be there but the other two spots are wide open

    Now that Hawks are going to win I feel bad for cheering for them. [censored] Hawks.

    I don't even want it to be a draw though. Don't want Geelong getting anything

    We understand your anguish but it's in a good cause. The GET [censored] GEELONG cause.

    At one point a free was paid to Hawks and it looked to me like Hawkins started mouthing off to the umpire but quickly turned his head to a seemingly random Hawthorn player.   A cunning bastard.

    I think it’s a wonderful and very deep of thought adaptation of Bryan.

    So here we are, on top of the ladder a game and percentage clear. Only 4 teams have scored more than us, and one of those got to play North and another WCE.

    Meanwhile MFC and Freo are well clear on the points against. Already.

    Love seeing Geelong lose, but why does it have to be Hawthorn? I don't want to see Hawthorn anywhere near the finals for years. But right now each of Geelong, Hawthorn and Sydney sit inside the top 8.

    How good has this weekend been. Pies get done, Essendon, tigers, weagles and cats follow suit. Oh and we belted the giants.

    I agree - not ideal, but aligned with my order of dislike.

    Whoever beats the cats is fine with me.

    Completely neutral here as I can't stand either club.

    That was a ripping game of footy to watch. Jeez that little #44 from Hawthorn has a crack. #44 from the other mob goes alright as well.

    This is the thing Mazer.

    During any game, umpires must see indiscretions that could be given as frees.

    How do they decide when/ which to pay?

    An ouija board would be more reliable. But wouldn't get past the Channel 7 AFL Oversight & Management Committee.  Slows the game down too much.

    Understandable sentiment. Now that the Cats have been skinned, and we've smoked our post-coital ciggies, we're asking ourselves what the hell we have just done. But look on the bright side. If the Hawks get anywhere near us in finals, we'll murder them.

    Assuming Geelong beats Hawthorn tomorrow, there will be a two game gap between 7th (likely Carlton given its percentage) and 8th (Collingwood).

    Five weeks in, we are getting close to the point where the top 8 starts to take shape. There is a reasonable argument the top 7 will be playing finals this year. You'd think the 8th side will be the Dogs, with Collingwood, Richmond, Adelaide, Gold Coast and GWS mid-table sides who will win some good games but not

    Three games and 50% clear of 9th.

    • 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.
