BT - “ANB was lucky”…I think it is time to turn down the volume.

He's incredibly insightful around the intricacies of this match.

He's mentioned look at all those blue beanies about 5 times.

    So Lever had a fifty paid for being to close to the mark a few weeks back. Has that rule been changed 

    Only for us.

    Uninspiring effort from Grundy today. Especially against his old club.

    Bad kicking = bad footy

    Most of the misses (that made the distance) have shanked to the left.

    Instruction from here.... aim for the right hand post.

    P.S. can the Magpie army pls start chanting.... we might kick straighter (training background effects)

    It’s in our hands.

    Play a bit smarter and kick straighter we win this.

    Just don’t think we’re that smart.

    Completely shut down their run and carry just so inaccurate.

    Should be a clear 3-4 goals in front.

    Friggen let them off the hook.

    Kozzy should be asigned to him on kick ins Nick won't go if he is near him.

    That is correct.... and why you dont have Spargo on the mark for any of his kick ins.

    ALL THE LITTLE THINGS!

    Apart from Fritsch no forwards. Kozzie is a real worry - has done nothing for weeks. 

    If only he did not go for the mark of the century every time.

    Chandler not great either. Jvr gone quiet.

    My early take - whatever happens today, I've seen enough to think our style of play will hold up better than the Pies in a final.

    David King’s love for Collingwood needs to be called out by someone. It’s becoming weird at this point lol

    Kozzie has been rubbish for weeks. His constant mark of the year attempts cost the team multiple goals every week. It’s a real problem and the coaching staff need to get to work with him or send him to the VFL to find form. Playing a man down today with him out there. So frustrating as he can be a match winner and has the potential to be one of the best players in the league.

    They’re more skilled and their defence is too good for our attack (such as it is). On the turnover they look incredibly dangerous, we look like we we’d be lucky to score. That’s very simply the story of that half. We’re in it, but playing as ugly and fantastically inefficient as we are (which is now in our heads), can’t see how we pinch it.

    Same old story. Forwards are [censored] except Frisch & kicking bad 2nd year in a row against them. Made that Spud Cox look like a champion because Grundy refused to man him up. Grundy not worth the money he is being paid.

    I’m actually ready for Kozzie to be dropped to the VFL. Just all at sea with the way he is playing and needs to realize he’s not above team play. So many opportunities for him to be at the fall of the ball but he’s no where near or worse trying to take mark for the year about 10m from where the ball actually is

    Looking like he's being SEVERELY overpaid this season for his output.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      Melbourne and Hawthorn who face off against each other this week have more in common than having once almost merged and about to wear a blue jumper with a red v triangle and an embroidered picture of a bird on the front.  They also share the MCG as their main home ground, their supporters are associated with the leafy suburbs of Melbourne and in recent times, James Frawley graced the colours of both teams. Even more recently, both have bounced back from disastrous five game losing streaks to start off a season. Of course, the Hawks turned their bounce into a successful leap from the bottom of the ladder into a finals appearance, making it to the semifinals in 2024 and this year, they’re riding high in third place on the AFL table. The Demons are just three games into their 2025 bounce back, and are yet to climb their way out of the bottom four although they are sitting a game and percentage out of the top eight. However, with the current sportsbet odds of $3.90 to win this week’s encounter, it seems a forlorn hope that their upward progression will continue much longer.

    • 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.
