Why was Tracs goal not allowed???

Langdon puts hands in the back of GWS player. Really, really soft. Usually that free never gets called no matter how blatant. This one was barely contact

 

Tmac must have a huge second half

    If our midfield start working flat out we win this easily, if they keep running around like a training drill we could lose this.

    She paid a free kick for a push that wasn’t at all a push and would result in 300 free kicks a game of that’s what counts as a push.

    Just need to get back to what we did right in the first quarter. 

    Langdon had 2 shockers when going for goal. 

    Weid & McDonald need to work out what they're doing up forward. 

    Also our mids are getting smashed in clearances. That needs to be fixed up

    Oliver not himself at this stage. Needs to lift

    Are TMac and Weed just decoy forwards these days?

    Clearances a huge concern.

    If Harmes is running with Coniglio he is getting thrashed.

    It was a push, totally stupid and unnecessary by Langdon.

    Stats wise he’s been pretty quiet but I thought his attack at the footy was ok…..would like to see the footy stick In his hands though! 

    He looked at one stage to take a chest mark one handed, not sure if he was being held but that’s how it appeared.

    Yep, work ethic is not there in the middle. Put some hungry kids in there. Jacko, Sparrow, Jordon, I’m sure Gus would love a run in the middle.

    What they are doing is having a nice evening supper of Hot Cross Buns and Hot Chocolate

    Would help if they kicked it to Weid instead of in the air against 3.

    Both would want to have a big second half.

    • PREVIEW: 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.
