I'm going to sounds like a broken record. This is also a rhetorical question. Why didn't we pick up Jesse Hogan when Freo wanted to ditch him? He's exactly what we need!

We've lost Hogan, Jackson and Bedford on Goodwin's watch.

    I wish we still had Jesse but we probably don't win in 2021 without Steven May in defence. 

    Sliding doors.

    Great point. Not sure Frosty would have given Curnow a bath last night like May did.

    I’ve got a letter going to Pert Monday. A clear eyed no holds barred review of everything is needed

    members need to know the club is taking this seriously 

    my renewal depends on it

    Money better spent on golf club membership at present

    The AFL wouldn’t hate GW$ getting to the pointy end. The East Coast is worth a lot of money on TV

    The way Daisy explained his reading of the play hit the nail on the head.

    Such creative forward craft... unpredictable for defenders...and something that Melbourne never seems capable of is that his teammates read his movements.

    He's the best player in the comp hands down

    Are you saying Goodwin could stop Jackson yearning for his home? That you’d rather not have May and a flag?

    Toby Greene is my favourite non-mfc player

    Had a soft spot for him ever since he was shown in the crowd leaping up, fists clenched, and shouting “Maxie!!” 21 finals I think.

    Sure

    A half team in far western Sydney with 10000 members is not quite a Carlton Collingwood gf and the expire it gets their corporate partners and gambling companies for a week is it

    This would be a good outcome for the AFL.

    Early days but it looks as though Port are joining us in the straight sets exit club.

    If GWS can handle the 90,000 occasion and are efficient around goals, then Collingwood have got something to think about.

    Refer response to SWYL. 
    CFC x 2 >> GWS BL

    I’m ok with either GWS or BL winning, GWS preferably for their excellent pirate shanty theme song

    On current form GWS and Brisbane are far and away the best teams in it.

    I thought that after the STK game and put some sneaky $ on them for the GF. They can beat the pies. Hopefullly Greene can Maynard Maynard . That would be a dream.

    Such a pity Hogan had all the issues he had 7-8 years ago

    talent wise he should be a 700 goal fwd

    • 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.
