First set shot at goal I’ve ever seen Amartey kick through the goals.

    Looks like Cripps has some big padding around the ribs on one side - is that normal for him?

    That’s where he stores the brown paper bags.

    I can’t wait to lose to this [censored] mob next week. Nothing better than going from one bunch of meth head inbred fans to the next. 

    Who is this post for? Is it venting? Do you think we care? Do you want to be proven right? Is it a way to hedge against the worst possible result. Would honestly love to know.

    Straight sets coming up again for us.

    We are in big trouble. Straight sets again. I don’t think I could feel any more depressed right now.

    Both. Doesn’t matter how fired up we come out next week. We’re unable to kick a winning score.

    Please everyone cool it with the straight sets nonsense. It may happen but there's no point whinging about it based on two sides playing a game that doesn't involve us. You're just doing your own heads in.

    They were talking on the radio today about a Collingwood/ Carlton grand final. Ugh

    Carlton hasn't been that good. The intensity is way lower than our game last night. Those talking definate straight sets need to chill out.

    It’s just me commentating on the quality of opposition fans we are going to have to endure two weeks running. 
    Fun times.

    A lot of blues ‘fans’ must have needed directions to the G after not turning up for the last 15 years

    Umm, the Blues do play home games at the MCG 😊

    We’ve not cracked over 87 points in the last 3 weeks and that was with Melksham. And Roo. And neither are playing next week. 
    God help us if there is so much as one drop of rain or a slight breeze next Friday. You think Pies defended well, wait until we try to get 80 inside 50s against Carlton for 2 behinds.

    And here comes the rain.

    Footy really sucks this year.

    With our luck, Clarry will get sunburnt and subbed off 3 minutes into the game.

    I think we are going to play the most contested, combative, ugly brand of footy next week.

    We will be angry. I like us when we are angry.

    Roo is tiring anyway and IMO is barely best 22. Melksham is a big out but is only good for 1-2 goals per game. 

    I don't care who you put in our forward line anyway. Forwards kick the goals but they don't create them.

    • 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.
