Softest contact sport in the world. 
 

NRL here I come. 

It will be near unwatchable in another 5 years. Slowly but surely sucking any ounce of physicality out of it.

    Honestly what is Hunter meant to do there?

    Competing for the ball is now reportable (apparently)

    Accidents happen and that should just be a high contact free kick and that's the end of it

    Really cheap free and goal to finish that quarter. Would have all but ruled Port out but they will take something from that. Gonna be a tight one 


    Great quarter, Rivers stiff to give free for holding!

    Demons keep tempo up and they will win.

    Butters has irritated me tonight with his nerdy and punchable face. Would love him in red and blue, kid can play.

    As the newly minted 4th quarter specialists I’m looking forward to us continuing our good work from q3 and ignoring that late goal. 

    Grundy didn’t get in to the field of play. McDonald didn’t get off the ground and who knows where Lever was for that. Not a great effort for a ball that probably could’ve been touched with the perfect run and jump 


    Love for that to continue. Port will surely come back with a bit of fire.

    Let’s see that 4th quarter Dees special please. 
     

    Port gonna throw the kitchen sink - we cannot sit back and try to absorb it.

    port player ran shoulder first in the melbourne player on the line to keep him out of play no free. that holding man is a disgrace all night long people have been holding and dropping the ball and all of a sudden the ump pulls that our of his butt. Why can we not play like we did in the third quarter for four quarters. hopefully they have got up enough steam to keep going in the last to finish port off.

    4 umps all trying to justify their pay packet.

    Never wanted to win a game so much.

    If we win I'm streaking 

    Look out Northern Wollongong.

    We won some clearances. Hit targets. Marked. Got numbers to the ball. Hunted in packs and stuck our tackles.

    It's like someone hit the on button.

    He’s brilliant. And he must smell horrific or have Covid, because nobody wanted to get near him 🙄

    Good quarter, they started hearing footsteps. 

    Tracc and Oliver played as a team.

    We out worked Lycett. 

    Now to drive it home, keep our intensity and limit the pressure on the backline.

    Rivers, getting better and better.

     

    That was epic lads. Super super QTR.

    Trac got his wack & responded. 

    Centre Clearance wins!

    & how about this boy Rivers tonight good lord!!!

    You don't win many games of footy against top line oppos on one decent quarter.

    One more 'big boy pants' quarter!


    I love this club but boy our Jekyll and Hyde, atrocious and brilliant, sloppy and excellent patches in games is killing me. We were brilliant that quarter. 

    One heck of a last quarter coming up.

    Smells like all his supporters.

    This would be the biggest win since the granny I reckon, if we can snag it.

    Technically it was there like about 80 others not paid this match in the rain. Rivers holding on didn’t actually impede the player who was going no where in that scrimmage but you know give the umps half a chance.

    • 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?
