    Geelong winning the lions share of the contested ball but haven't been able to convert. Tiges have kicked straight and managed to keep the shackles on Cameron although Hawkins looks like he could cut loose.

    Geelong not out of this at all

    Tigers being burned by the umpiring. So many pushes in the back, missed throws, and holding the ball decisions earnt but not given.

    Picket is silky once he gets on the move.  Nice decision maker also

    Remember when umpire dissent was a rule? That was a fun 6 weeks.

    Another overlooked against Smith just then.  Ye olde AFL "different rules for different folk" trick

    I see nothing in Taranto or Hopper. They both look too slow.

    Beat me to it.

    Hopper over rated.

    Taranto poor kick.

    Wow

    Umpiring an horrendous joke again tonight... 🤦‍♂️

    Ffs, AFL get your priorities right

    Was at the Storm game last night, and this pales in comparison to the ref & bunker in charge yesterday

    Like the Tigers of old in that passage

    Jack riewoldt is cooked. Tiges doing well to be ahead considering they have no forward line.

    I know they have some outs, but when was the last time Geelong conceded 50 points in a Q

    I don't know, but not in this game. Do you mean 50 in a half? That would be Rd 7 vs Essendon, two weeks ago.

    Cats fwds aint much better with cameron having to play behind the ball to setup play.

    Richmonds disposal is just junktime and Geelong are only out there putting in  an appearance. With the outs that Geelong have it is an opportunity for Richmond but they seem to have really fallen by the wayside.

    Powell, first contest on the wing hits Jermaine Jones in the head trying to spoil then hits him in the head with his knee. Both incidental, no injury. I assume he’ll offer to sit out two weeks, it’s what he deserves.

    I see heaps @The heart beats true. $1M down the drain annually for the next seven years. BeautiFOOL.

    $1m, try at least $1.5m.

    My formula for calculations is based on the amount they are overpaid. For example @Redleg, they would have been better to recruit James Jordon for $400,000 a year and received the same output they are getting for 800K, with considerably more upside it must be said. You could argue for example, with Jack Reewold in his wheelchair, they should have done after Lobe to play second fiddle to Lynch. Cost half the price of Toronto and Hopper and structurally they would be much better off.

    • 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.
