    It goes against the natural order of things to cheer for the Pies, but I keep on having to remind myself it's in our best interests

    Somehow I have a soft spot a mile wide for the Doggies, probably because of 21 and my boss!

    Wow the Pies really commit the entire team when they attack.  Haven't really seen a team play like this before

    Turn it over and you have a goal.  Naughton was on his own earlier with only Quaynor within 20m

    McCrae could be the new Hardwick. It's stubbornly taken me a long time to acknowledge them but they will win 2 flags at least i reckon

    Having said that - they are not unbeatable.  and have clear vulnerabilities

    The one week you want/need Collingwood to do you a favour 😬 

    Pies need to ditch Ash Johnson before he single-handedly loses them a final. Not the smartest of players.

    pies conversion a "disgrace" in near perfect conditions for a premiership favorite, 28% 🤷‍♂️

    If Pies lose tonight they’ve lost to 3rd, 4th and 5th on the ladder. 
     

    Speaks volumes.

    Put that in your pipe and smoke it Mason.

    Meanwhile the Doga have been outstanding in their forward conversion and connection since 3 quarter time of last week.

    Dogs moving the ball well. They've built into the season nicely and are a big chance of taking the final top 4 spot.

    The dogs are having about a million shots from the pocket and nailing all of them, so we'd better be able to do the same on the same ground in 24 hours time.

    Ugal-hagen is slowly emerging as a star of the comp.

    Fabulous work ethic. Multiple leads high up the ground and doubling back occasionaly for a few inside 50.

    2nd efforts and some great passes inside.

    Imagine moving the ball with such precision and then nailing shots on goal. 
    What a dream 🙄

    Just don’t understand watching both teams fwds leading & taking marks vs ours running away from the ball carrier, and sharp passing no long bombs

    Not to wish ill on anyone but Jack Crisp needs to miss a game someway or another sometime soon. He’s creeping closer to Jimmy’s record. 😡

    This is the NON-MFC thread

    Just sayin’

    Yes!! I actually feel bad for being sad when I see him get up sore from a contest and then just run it off 😅

    Yes.  Has struggled with goal kicking up until about half way through this season.  Now appears to be turning the corner.

    His attack at the marking contest has gone up a notch as well.  No doubt more confident in the body as he fills out and gets stronger.

    • 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.
