    why did I put money on them?! Honestly thought they would back up from last week

    GWS are poorly coached. Must be a Sydney thing. Players happy to get a kick, just hack it on the boot. Pretty pathetic to continue seeing this. GWS are terrible. Sydney not much better. Geelong just barely going here and winning as they like. One of the easier wins you’ll see.

    Imagine being a GWS supporter? I Mean obviously you have to because they don’t have any physical supporters, but you get my point.

    32 and 290 games taking its toll. Still a gun but lost some explosiveness

    Guess he’ll just have to depend on his kicking skills. Oh wait.

    Bombers have lost their backline due to an Illness. Any interest in the game tonight has gone

    Skills in the GWS and Geelong game have been poor. Not attractive footy. Watched the last quarter of syd and GC. Well the suns have done us a favour. Hope Hawthorn win by a point and lets see where the bears % climbs to.

    Just wondering if there's a threat to our 186 up in Brisbane?

    GWS are useless. What a friendly game of football.

    The results over the last few weeks show us that this competition can in no way sustain 20 teams, not now nor in next 15 - 20 years. I’m all for a team in Tasmania but a current club must be relocated, any potential incoming CEO MUST share this opinion for the good of the game.

    I cannot recall a team losing 5 players to illness, but stand to be corrected. What is going on here?

    🤣But Essendon will now have there excuse for when they lose. If Hawthorn can't beat them tonight then they're not that good.

    I thought GWS had turned the corner. lifeless performance from them. The board should consider letting Cameron go early and see if a different voice can inspire the players to salvage their season

    Gutless, or heartless / rudderless?

    That free kick to Hogan was ridiculous. No contact, or minimal at best.

    Why don't the commentators call it?

    AFL accreditation would be revoked - IMMEDIATELY to said commentators.

    That was due to Covid. Which is sort of my point - what are Essendon playing at here?

    Hmmm, very few games look enticing....perhaps it's a generational thing?

    Looking forward to watching Big Ange snare another 3 points and take home the SPL later on this evening.

    I'm vaguely Celtic, I guess the link with Henrik.L when I first went O/S 20 years ago... more about parochial australiana. 👌

    • 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.
