laurie makes smart decisions but he doesn't get involved enough in the play

is he playing back today in the Bowey role?

 

Taking our opportunities in this quarter, JVR, AMW, Woewodin. 

More players getting involved, Dunstan, Laurie, Freeman.

Backline still holding up when GWS are trying hard to get back in the game.

Casey 50 to  GWS 11

Edited by kev martin

 

Laurie turnsover in the backline, leaving an entry and goal for GWS.

Follows up from the centre bounce, with getting the ball, linking to JJ, then JVR who marks in the goal square.

57 to 17

Sounds like Woe is really pushing for AFL debut. Has he been playing pure midfield today?

Tomo also out 

I saw him up here in Alice yesterday


impressive half of footy; could be even further up

8.9.57 to 2.6.18

jj everywhere with 24 and 6 clearances, while woey 2.0 and dunstan have 14, and laurie just behind with 13, munro 12, and turner and howes 11 apiece

goals: woey 2.0 3, jvr, amw 2, jefferson 1

Much better quarter by Laurie

Jefferson went quiet but JVR came into it. A reversal of the first quarter. (Could be they are interchanging but not clear)

He has been on the wing, though pushing up into the half forward area.

A little quiet at times, has quality and composure.

I also think he has 3 goals up to half-time.

The young guy doing special comments is rather good

Lead. Bur agree - I've heard him do Casey a couple of times. Really like his work.

The woman doing special comments, whose name escapes me  but is an AFLW player, is good too.

It makes such a difference to hear decent commentators.

Woey has started the 2nd half on the ball.

Charlie Spargo is similar, but Charlie has the tank to go with it now and I wouldn't be surprised if he's back in the 22 over the next month.

no, still half forward moving up to the wing

The Spargo role by the sounds of it, although I'm not watching the game.


GWS came out strongly in the 3rd, we get a goal against the flow and from a backline effort, Schache goals. GWS has lost that domination, though still trying.

69 to 26

My apologies to the special comments lady. This half they seem to have adjusted the audio and the gender is obvious to my old ears.

Great commentary today

ON AFL website final teams there is no Spargo or Melksham. 2 emergencies still in Alice I hope milk is sub.

 

Melk wet weather specialist should be playing if it is kissing down with rain.

This mistake was made against the Powa in R10.

  • 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.
