GAME DAY: West Coast V Melbourne

Melbourne’s Tom McDonald stole a three-point win from the West Coast Eagles in the final moments with his fifth goal at Domain Stadium on Saturday night.
The Eagles had almost sealed the deal with a 16-point lead half way through the final term, but the Demons kept pushing and with only 24 seconds left, McDonald managed to kick a goal against all odds to get the win, 14.12 (96) to 15.9 (99).
Jack Viney also starred for the Demons with his 38 disposals and while Mark LeCras (hip) joined Josh Kennedy on the sidelines this week, Drew Petrie stepped up for the Eagles with four goals.
