This umpiring is disgusting.

50m should be 30m, it works out to be 2 kick penalty

too much panic and poor technique by Dees.

    So many of them hanging back, not attacking the ball or their opponents.

    Horrible to watch, is that 1.0 scored in their last 4 quarters?

    i don't normally comment on the umpiring, but gee they are giving all to the pies.  Missing blatant our then giving the same offence to the pies a few seconds later.

    Half to go though,

    won't matter - no forward line

    The maggots are killing us. No problem with being pinged for incorrect disposal or HTB if the same rule is applied to the opposition. 

    Our structures are broken as well and I reckon Pies are harder at it. Suspect some of our girls are gun shy after some of those decisions. The maggots are killing us

    Well, at least we can be sure that failing to make effective use of inside 50s is a true Demon thing.

    I'm frustrated but not giving up on it just yet.

    Our players have absolutely no awareness at all...this is like watching Neeld era Dees.

    Correct. Turnovers under zero pressure. Limited run and dysfunction in the forward half. Stinear has his work cut out methinks...

    Too many players who just can't kick, meaning any ball movement just inevitably breaks down.

    Coach's instructions are "lift your workrate"?????? Non specific instructions will not help.

    yes and apart from Daisey too many slooooow decision makers with poor disposal skills. Allowing pie players to close down space and put even more pressure on their disposals. Too many handballs too.

    I suspect the Pies are under done though fitness wise and look a little too heavy over the ground for a Women's team for mine. Not enough quick runners across the ground.

    If the Demons can clean up and quicken up their disposals I reckon they get pretty close here

    Well yeh until they fix the problem.

    Let's not forget last years grand final was one of the worst umpiring performances you will see. What's been done nothing?

    The umps are the least effect here. No cohesive skills or game plan !!  Did a coach turn up ? Cant tell

    Unbelievable, 1 goal in 4 quarters then 4 goals in 1 quarter.

    • 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.
