    What what say. You have almost done it again but I think Geelong rather than the dogs but it might be a draw. Very hard game to pick. 
    doing alright on the demonland list and the local pub as well,  it’s a surprise. One of these rounds I will get 2 and that’s it for the season

    Expect to win again but a hard game. 
    the ground the supporters the umpires

    Arrived today, seeing Demons/Adelaide and Hawks/pies. Don't hold out much hope for Hawks though

    I did not know there was a double header. No Adelaide team being involved this year makes sense. Would be interesting to see quarter by quarter attendance figures across the day. A great day for a neutral supporter to dip in and out of the football and surrounding parklands/restaurants/food trucks.

    Norwood Oval is only 110 metres wide with completely straight wings. One of the quirks about Aussie Rules is that there appears to be no official minimal standard sized field to play on.

    Yep, aside from our game, the double header is the highlight of Gather Rd from my perspective. Four in form sides.

    I'm going for Freo and Dogs as my smokies.

    It can't be all favourites in Gather Round surely?  Better get that foot ready for my mouth tonight just in case.

    Huge week.  Gather round.  The AFL copy of the NRL magic round in Brisbane.  
     

    But it does spark up Adelaide and gives a vibe.  Trac’s carnival cooking show probably will be the highlight.  
     

    I will kick start.  
     

    The Bloods culture … blah blah blah.  Apparently so revered.  

    So what’s the go with Sam Wicks. And to quote Damo

    ‘Sam Wicks was given a club-imposed one-week break for “who knows?”  Some off field romantic dramas.  Damo correctly states “if he was one of the Swans’ top-five rated players, would he have been given the break? In sports selection vernacular, he was expendable. The break has ended, and no senior team recall’.
      Ah yes.  The mighty Bloods culture is fallible.  

    anyway Essendon Edge on show tonight? Let’s see.

    Just hoping the rest of the games this round are all bloodbaths with every team coming out worse for wear (especially Lions)

    • 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.
