Brayshaw's commentary in this game was generally excellent. A stark contrast to Taylor who was hyperbolic and made error after error.

Classics like bang, bang, bang, bang and It's falling the way of the Demons will be remembered for a long time.

 


I have always regarded James Brayshaw as an astute judge of all things football and any comments apparently made by me to the contrary weren't really because my account was hacked.

I reckon i had a dig at him today also.😂

 

I reckon JB has had a soft spot for us ever since Gus was drafted. Rarely says a bad word against us.

Yes for some reason I find this comment of JB less annoying than most.

As much as these two drive me nuts I thought their call was really on point that night. 

Then again any call would have probably sounded good in that game. 

His main fault, he always sounds very happy with himself.

In my era, not a more pure style of footy played in a granny. Maybe a couple of equals (e.g. Jeelong in '07, ArmageDON in '84, Carlscum in '70), but I don't think anything better. And it was US. Brings a tear to my eye still. The MFC just showcased a 150 year old game in its great glory. And they can never take that way from us. 40 minutes of pure transcendence actually.

I would agree.  I also thought Daisy was excellent.  I loved the way a couple of times her comments on the game put BT in his place!

BREAKING; Kane Cornes reveals James Brayshaw might consider changing his favourite grand final to 2002 Bris v Coll in exchange for Andy Maher not nominating Ben Cousins' Richmond debut as his favourite hamstring injury. Discussions ongoing but Maher holding firm.

Maher holds a lot of things firm I am told.

Typical biased response from you and others on here.

I wouldn't be surprised if most / all of you are Melbourne supporters. 

I concede there is a potential conflict of interest, but I am managing it by excusing myself from any relevant discussions, immediately after making clear the outcome I am seeking.


Brayshaw grates on me a bit, to be honest.

The bang, bang, bang in the third quarter has never been seen in a Grand Final

Never!

Also my favourite GF since 64,

You're missing one bang here Orion. 😀

  • 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?
