This is Mark Need-esque. Your move Goodwin

Wait till we get beaten by the bombers on Friday night. 

 

Well at least Viney isn’t cooked. Looks much better than last week.

    Not that i'm saying "I told you so" or anything, but our players keep fumbling, they are missing kicks and every time they hit up the "hot spot" they are outnumbered and Geelong take the ball out with ease.

    I’m being consoled. Well, attempting to console me. I actually have a tear in my eye. It makes me so sad after how hard we worked last year. It’s like the form during our preliminary final never left us

    That’s probably the only positive I’ve taken from this garbage so far.

     

    Why continue to bomb it into the forward 50 when we have no crumbers?

    Move hunt into the midfield or forward. His obviously having no impact at half back

    Petracca isn’t a forward’s ar$ehole and yet he is always 2-on-1 by himself up forward. Why?

    Then we drop him. He’s in the team on potential, not output. Either he gets involved and has an impact, or we drop him.

    Mate. He is no where near getting dropped. Delivery into the forward line has been terrible. Who are you bringing in for him?

    You would drop him ahead of Jones, ANB, Frost, Sparrow, Lockhart? Would you drop them all? Our list is nowhere near good enough to be dropping Trac.

    how are we this bad - AGAIN!

    We are all in too tight inside the contest.    We need 2 or 3 in close,  and 3 just off the pack to receive or defend space. 

    A bit like when the Saints beat us under Edishat,  3yrs back.

    Because we are so close together in tight...  we're just flipping the ball from one to the other,  until we cough it up.

    ANB and Jones to be dropped.  Past history does not gift you games.

    ANB is useless at AFL level.....great runner though ?

    Jones's used by date ....last week.

    But hey.. be a realist and you're anti Melbourne. 

    Can't wait for the presser

    25 points down is utterly flattering.

    Weideman not a natural footballer 

    needs to spend the start of each season at Casey and continue to learn there’s more to it than mark and kick

    Bring in Keilty

     

    Hell, bring in my brother too. He's a decent forward at least (though admittedly a little lazy).

    • 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.
