One quarter into this game and it's become VERY obvious that neither Richmond nor Carlton are going to do anything of note this year. Way off the pace compared to these two.

 

Good game. When is age going to catch up with Pendlebury, he’s a freak.

He’s not playing anywhere near as much inside footy as he did earlier in his career, so he still has a couple years left in him yet

 

The standard of footy tonight is terrific. Two Top 4 teams for sure.    Max Holmes looks a beauty.  What could’ve been.

Anyway it’s such a contrast to last night’s fumblefest.   Enjoying this entertainment.

 

GARY ROHAN having a day out......

1 possesion at this stage

What a stellar player he is

He was Swans best player in last years GF

Why do they insist on calling it an underground handball?

just as I'm reading this he takes a contested mark and goals. 

 


Gee whiz not sure we'd deal with the attacking threat (or replicate it ourselves) of either of these teams 

How did so many of their toe rag fans get into an away game?

If Voss is watching this game he may want to revise his statement that the Boos and the Tiges will be thereabouts at the end of the season.


This game is a class above. Both these sides look set for a top 4 finish. 

Hope these mounting injuries aren’t somehow related to the newly laid turf post the Ed Sheerin concert…we play tmrw night

Pendlebury just handballed over his head to a Collingwood player who didn't break his stride (Hoskin-Elliot?). Hate the pies but can't help but admire Pendlebury.

Did you know he played basketball before football?

You should have seen what he could do with a ball, before he started playing footy.

Maybe playing basketball before football has prolonged his career

This could well be a grand final preview and I wouldn’t be surprised. The skills are unbelievable.

  • 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.
