The Cats have brought mostly man v man pressure with a slight drop away from that in the second quarter.

The Swans have completely crumbled under that pressure.

When we played them (twice), we brought our usual 2/3 rds rolling zone giving them too much time and space, making them look a million $$.

Hopefullly Goody & the FD will recognise this and change things up a fair degree in 2023.

If they don't and continue to drag out the loose rolling zone at the start of 2023 i'll be super worried about our chances.

    Glad this wasn’t us. Cats would’ve done this to anyone today. Too good.

    I can’t believe that any of the Swans players haven’t crunched in and try to make it slow and physical. Make it hard for them. Instead they’ve just rolled over.

    I reckon our boys would be a bit embarrassed today. May, Viney and Oliver wouldn’t have just accepted this.

    They would be hurting, a team they demolished 12 months earlier now taking the [censored] against a bunch of misfits.

    In fairness to the Bulldogs last year they fought for 3 quarters but got rolled by the most demoralising and blistering 5 minutes of football I think I’ve ever seen, and it broke them.

    Contrasted to the Swans who have never been in this. Not for a minute.

    FMD!! I just came in from raking leaves ..... I'm going back to it.

    Tonight I will drink booze while avoiding Fox and FTA.  There's a couple of decent Korean shows on Netflix while boozing.

    Uncle Bitter is signing off ...... before I vomit.

    Someone could put a gun to my head and still I won’t watch Dangerfield get a premiership medal. 🤮 

    Might get a Normie yet. He was dead slow last year. He and Selwood are flying.

    Gotta wonder about fitness and player management.

    Not sure how our midfield got handled by this Swans outfit.

    Hate the Cats, but credit to them. Amidst all the jokes about the 'retirement village' they walked the walk while the other teams that might have challenged them talked the talk.

    This is a pretty poor advertisement for the game in general. Two 12+ goal grand finals in a row. If the Swans are the second best team that could be served up it's a worry.

    You reckon they'll get a similar draw they got this year, next year?

    Pathetic 50m penalty. Warner has been Sydney’s best by a fair margin. At least he’s trying.

    Bledisloe and Rabbitohs playing tonight.

    Thoroughly recommend Train to Busan on SBS. Just an awesome zombie movie.

    I feel like I'm watching one now and the Zombies are winning!

    We need to milk multiple flags out of our current team. I'm [censored] over teams like Geelong nabbing a quarter of the flags contested over the last 16 seasons.

    • 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.
