    Good game but the Saints stopped to a walk.  Did well to hang on in the end

    Crazy good game to watch as a neutral

     

    Amazing brave mark from the young Irish kid O'Connell - probably saved the game

    Saints played red time nicely and up till about the 5 - 8 minute mark of the final Q they were consistently lowering their vision and looking to hit up the short / 45 targets including when they were coming i50.

    Looks like they're starting to play the way Ross is training them.  Kudos to him and their list on that win tonight.  Nights like this can sometimes make or break a club's season.

    A long way to go but a very impressive win.

    zac jones is a very average player

    You have to be joking… he played a great game today… kicking leaves a lot to be desired, but his pressure and ball distribution by hand was excellent.

    Super gutsy.  Wilkie was fab especially his 3rd Q.

    Wood, Marshall, Owens, Jones, Higgens, Windhager, Hill among others.

    You were neutral? I was definitely on the Saints haha. The Irish kid did them proud and a few others, heart tonight was ace. Marshall was Max like. And god was I nervous with the Cats back line marking everything.

    The defense (Fox panel) is already pleading Dangers case. No Stewart helps us in a few weeks.

    Funny game footy. Like tennis, matchups is just a weird concept and thing to wrap your head around

    In tennis, Fabrice Santoro holds a h2h 7-2 against Safin and on the women’s side, Sharapova during their era is the second best player on tour mostly and still 2-20

    Footy ain’t much different. We have an underrated rivalry with GWS, GWS matches up well with the Pies but our record against Collingwood has been horrendous during the Goodwin era.

    Not to mention the hilarity of Pies fans trying to downplay our ‘21 flag by saying they were the only team to have our measure. Didn’t a lowly Hawthorn (their bogey team) beat them in their flag year?  

    Now, no disrespect to them, but St Kilda beat Geelong, but will anyone be surprised if they came out and lost to Richmond?

    Zac Jones made some howler decisions but no doubt about he goes at it hard.

    I've never wanted the lions and Hawks to win so much in my life.

    I would be absolutely flabbergasted if St Kilda lose to Richmond next week on their turf.

    St Kilda are a different team at Marvel.

    The AFL is a mess of contradictions but I find it extremely odd that they have round zero in an alleged attempt to draw interest in the NRL heartland but don’t seem at all concerned about having no and/or very few FTA Saturday night games in NRL heartland. I think they are really under estimating how much of an advantage that blanket Friday, Saturday, Sunday coverage gave 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.
