    I so want them to go 0–6.

    I'd rather we make top 4 and knock them out of the 8 in r24. They'd also not get a top 10 pick W the saints josh battle compo. Finally some pay back!

    Caleb Windsor has got him well covered in the courageous department, I am sure Caleb's already got more than a handful contested marks as a wingman!

    Yep he'll never be the decent human that Jim was

    Sad to know that someone with a lot of integrity like Petracca has his streak cut by a filth player, and on top of that a filth player hasn't missed a game in 10 years. Sometimes there's no justice in this world😮‍💨

    It’s heartening to see Geelong finally have some success after their tragic downfall and gruelling three-week rebuild. 

    But maybe that does tell you something. Do I dare keep hope alive?

    Didn’t see the game, had much better things to do 

    Just kept an eye on the scores. 
     

    Did Maynard get smashed?

    Pies need to win 4-6 to make the 8.. they play Carlton, Sydney, lions and dees. Hopefully their season will be done by the time they play the dees however we all know what occurred last time this happened

    The heart always says I want Collingwood to lose but what result is the best for Melbourne?

    Good ol' Collingwood for never, they know how to lose a game ... even though the Cats won this ordinary, in finals they will certainly be lame ...

    Slept like a log, myself. The subconscious relaxation of a Filth loss kicked in beautifully...

    Huge game tomorrow night just got bigger

    Now, it's an ultimate challenge; whatever the result (which should see the Dees win), it is just phantastique to get ahead of the Filth on the ladder, particularly in the 'sharp end' of season. Is it time to say: 'Thanks, Essendrug'?

    How sad that Maynard could only manage 8 disposals. 🤮🤮🤮

    Please include its full title when referring to it  ...  "that POS Maynard".

    I don’t care the fact that Geelong are probably going to play finals again. They’ve been given one of the easiest run homes this season and they had an incredibly easy start to the year. One thing about finishing in the bottom 6 is it usually means you can rebound pretty well the next year with a full pre season, a top draft pick and an easier draw the next year.

    I’ve no respect for people who don’t pick their team in the footy tipping. I’ve picked Melbourne every game since 1986.

    In our comp there’s a North supporter and she’s dead last because she picks them every round. I know who to call when I need a loyal friend though - and everyone was so pumped for her last weekend.

    Some of you should be ashamed. 😂

    I'm ashamed alright @The heart beats true. I confess I spend too much time on 'land.

    It's only midway through the respective second quarters, but Freo isn't dominating Hawthorn, while Sydney is playing a tentative game against North.

    Everyone is vulnerable once the wildness of finals start.

    Geelong didn't look especially impressive in the pieces of the game I watched last night, to the point where I think the 'Pies are in major trouble and Geelong might still slip out of the 8.

    Everyone is vulnerable is we choose to be the hunter.

    Luke Jackson is an absolute star and we were royally ripped off when he left.

    Melksham and the kids should be very very hungry given most or all of them missed out on 2021. Hopefully it's enough to light a fire under the bums of a few veterans (Salem, Clarry, May, Langdon in particular come to mind).

    Windsor does great stuff but at his best he'll be a top tier wingman - a much lower ceiling than Jackson. The other two boys are untried at AFL level. Given we're in our window now (or were in one, it's probably closed now to be honest), potential is worth a lot less than current output.

    If Windsor becomes Robbie Flower Mk.II then I'll re-evaluate the trade.

    • 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.

    • GAMEDAY: West Coast

      It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?
