No chance

    I don't know if Cairns will have an effect on the Saints but if it does it will be in the second half.


    Can’t complain so far.

    The Saints came back a bit in the last ten minutes. They realised that the pressure style alone was not going to work against a team with such midfield silk, and started focusing on how they were going to move the ball rather than waiting for us to balls something up.

    Brayshaw BOG for mine so far.

    Kozzie went missing that quarter. 

    This is how picky we get, you still find reasons to get frustrated. We let the saints have more of the play in the 2nd half of that term. 

    Viney is fumbling, Gus got caught & I feel we should be more ahead by 35 points. 

    But apart from that it's been enjoyable to watch & it's nice to see us kick straight.

    Also the 3rd quarter is coming up. Usually our best

    Very good first half

    Great to see TMac playing well. It will be a big plus for us if he can find form

    Annoyed they have a sniff   I will on the dunnie all half time    bit nervous the saints have a blinder 3rd quarter.Max having a Barry crocker by his standards

    Saints were never going to lie down and die. 
    We are definitely a far superior team with ball in hand but Saints are plucky and they work hard. 
     

    Big third term coming up. 

    My first game with the “Army” and I’m smack bang in the middle of these crazy passionate lunatics. They’ve got me waving a huge-asss flag and I’m eyeing off the massive  TMac cardboard cutout. I figure the bearer of such has to go to the toilet sooner or later, right?😆

    GO DEEEEEES!!!

    MELB have conceded 9 goals in opening quarters in 2022 The fewest by any V/AFL side at this stage of a season since 1965 (GEEL & STK)

    • 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?
