    Well, by Demonland logic Geelong must have fluked last years Premiership?

    They fluked it far more than we did*
    If Pies don’t go down to Sydney by a point in the prelim, I reckon Cats don’t win it. 

    *there is no such thing as a fluked flag ffs

    Don’t care what anyone says, any day of the year where Geelong loses is a good day. Weekend salvaged.

    Hard to believe that we could still be fourth after the weekend. 

    Need something special from GC!

     

    Also a Richmond upset and Crom defeating Brisbane at home would be greatly appreciated.

    Lots of sliding door moments. Luck, avoiding injuries, building momentum etc will be decisive in second half of season. We are not there yet. Last season Collingwood rode their luck with winning all their close finishes in regular season but 2 close losses  killed their finals campaign. Their game was matched in heated finals pressure.

    Hogan just took a really good mark 

    he would have made a wonderful transitional forward for us as I tried to explain last year. Laughed at by many but tell me who is better Hogan or TMac

    Just watching a bit of GC$ v Dogs just why (for one of hundreds of reasons) there must never be a Darwin based team.    Just never suitable for AFL winter footy.  
    (And if they did any guesses how often Collingwood, Carlton, Essendon Geelong would ever have to go there?)
    Of course Gil or Dill May say yes if they have a billion dollar taxpayer funded covered air conditioned stadium.

    Yes.  But, Tom is a MFC player and as such deserves support of all true Demon fans, regardless of his current limitations.   It is not a choice we have.

    If there was ever a team based out of Darwin, I could understand the AFL demanding a stadium with a roof. Not so much Hobart.

    • 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.
