    Right???? I knew we’d put a few cracks in ‘em but we might have snapped ‘em clean in half!!! At the end of the season I want us to be able to proudly say we started their 15-game losing streak 🥳🥳🥳

    Haha I gotta say I ain’t mad about it.

    i have stuff happening in my life, promise, but this does give me some joy lol

    Obviously dissent frees aren't paid these days. Or not against Jee-long in any event. Their players continually wave their arms around when perceived injustices are inflicted on them by the umpires.

    They've done it for years - worst offenders are Hawkins and Cameron - and I have never ever seen them pinged for it.

     Sorry, I forgot to mention Dangerfield....

    Geelong and Carlton seem never to get a 50 paid against for dissent, and it is often quite demonstrative and abusive.

    Harley reid argued every umpiring decision. Nil dissent. I miss the days where any raising of the arms was 50...

    If Geelong wins, I'll shout the bar if Chris Scott mentions that Richmond's set-shot kicking contributed.

    Uh-oh...

    Break it to me gently, those who can bear to watch...

    Pretty happy with that result, short of Richmond winning.

    I thought Geelong would go ahead us on percentage with a 12 goal + win, but Richmond put up a good fight.

    And let’s face it, are Geelong seriously going 2-0 against Sydney and Carlton both away.

    Third place is ours if we’re good enough tomorrow.

    If we’re as good as we’re meant to be, I actually expect us to go second after KBD because I think Essendon will lose today and next week.

    Mac Andrew is a star. Barring injury, he'll be the best tall back in the AFL within 12 months

    Cannot believe some on here thought he was not worth it in his draft year 🤷‍♂️

    GC up by 5 with 2 minutes remaining. If the footy gods have any compassion whatsoever we’ll be hearing that song that no one knows the words to. 😁

    • 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.
