    Did anyone see Big O’s goal soft called a behind by the umpire as touched, but despite inconclusive evidence, the ARC overturned it? Funny how things change…

    It wasn't inconclusive. ARC said you could see gap between ball and fingers, it was conclusive.

    Do the dogs look like a team that have a burning desire to play finals to anyone?

    Look like a team expecting an easier game, reminds me on the 2017 game against the Pies.

    That's right.

    But it was more luck than good management, in the sense they were lucky they had a decent angle on it - the Fox coverage angle I'm guessing.

    It was just as likely for there not to be an angle, or frame good enough to over rule the soft call.

    And the point would have stood, as it did for tracc's goal.

    But you were posting about McInerney’s goal tonight and that was conclusive.

    Hate the cut of their jib.

     

    But hate most things about that club, hate the petulant coach, hate the entitled players, hate that they have been kissed on the proverbial with father sons, hate that they have been given hundreds of millions for their oval that's not an oval, hate the super soft draw that they are given each year 

     

    Generally don't like that club

    Hate it. Attempt to make their traps look bigger. Aka the “Dorrito” look to those in the gym scene 😜

    …. hate the way at least 3 Cats players appeal for a free with arms out every time there is a contest.

    Damn Adelaide is scarred 

    Players are humans. They must feel really flat and unmotivated after last week. Nothing to play for.

    Crows embarrassing, west coast could yet pinch another win

    Adelaide probably aren’t in the head space to go 100% rat power to win a dead rubber after the injustice of last week.

    The way West Coast and North keep giving each other pick 1 makes me think both clubs are going to get exactly what they want with their respective first picks.

    • 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.
