I'm at the game and it feels like the Lions have 2 extra guys on the field. Grimes, Gawn, Garland, Sylvia are working their back sides off but it's just not our day. God we miss Rivers and another inside mid like Molony. For Tim Harrington to say that Tommy mac will fill Rivers role was premature and ridiculous. This is obviously the first game I have been to this year, but gee wizz we have been sold some lies over the years.

Sam Mayes is killing us. Seems every top 10 pick last year is doing well bar Toumpas

You and your multiple personas on this website can take your player bashing elsewhere.

Demonland has become a hateful place of late. So many people complain about our clubs lack of culture and don't realise that by aggressively attacking players you are a part of the destructive culture that is destroying our club.

Take a look at yourself and behave as your father and his father was expected to, before you could hide behind some piddly little avatar on the Internet.

 

Watts 2 goals.

Watts haters gone quiet....

Wrong again Stuie - you're struggling here, aren't you - lots of posts praising him

Pederson is such a dud


Alright.... Time to settle in for a 12 goal last quarter.

God I hope it's us kicking the 12.

Wrong again Stuie - you're struggling here, aren't you - lots of posts praising him

Lots of red faces, including yours.
 

PEDERSON,!!!

GET HIM OFFFFFF!!!

It was a great hand ball from Sylvia wasn't it!!!!


almost makes you wonder how good Watts would be by now if he was never moved to defense and was allowed to develop in his natural forward position

Another huge fail by Neeld

Brisbane have had 210 uncontested possessions to our 134.

Neeld can take his zone and rack off.

Lets hope today was his last day as a defender.

"And watts is a beautiful kick - and must play forward"

"Good mark, Watts... so he has to stay up forward"

thought I'd save you the trouble, Stuie - this is obviously a bit beyond you.

When Hogan, Dawes and Clark are in the lineup, Watts will not be playing as a forward. At least not for Melbourne.

One big effort this quarter, win lose or draw just want to see some heart and fight

Watts looks good up forward.

nah, Rodan should not be outr leading forward that should be watts.

we've got our backhalf a little bit more functional & we;re getting some more drive, but breaking down going into the half forwardline....

Switch Howe & watts...@ the break...

Watts to the wing & howe to CHF...

pederson deep...

I suppose it's what 6 years (possibly 7) being at or near the bottom of the ladder does.

My only complaints are the defennsive zone doesn't work well and the what appears to be half-hearted chasing. Maybe our blokes are just slow.

After the fact and you know it.

Don try to rewrite history.


For crying out loud, I wouldn't want to be in a foxhole with some of the blokes on here.

That's a disgusting stat against this side.

We. Don't. Work. Hard. Enough.

Not one player, but almost the entire team. It's very hard to believe that the coach and game plan has nothing to do with it.

I don't reckon there's many Port fans arguing that Primus was just a Preseason away from them being 5-0, but I can't wait for another week of it here on D'Land.

It's not destructive change if your destroying something that doesn't work. It's logical and how the rest of the world works.

 

Should have gone for goal.

Either goal for goal or put it at the top of the square.. It was a stupid decision from a senior player.

Just heard Tim Watson say Melbourne are not putting in 100 % and thats exactly how it looks they look defeated before they start

Grimes attempted tackle was pathetic

  • 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.
