Im out.

Anyone defends this **** should be banned.

No patience or poise with ball in hand especially just outside 50.

Too many panic footballers that have no football brain.

The 2 Captains nowhere to be seen!  Both are way too slow around the footy both across the ground and their reactions with ball in hand in congestion.

    Melbourne's talls are an abject failure. OMac, Frost, Weed,TMac...

    Gawn is the only one.


    Back to the drawing board Simon. 

     

    Get more slow injured unfit defenders. Don’t worry about having any leg speed whatsoever. 

    No class.

    Below standard! ANB should have been dropped after pre-season! Does anyone want to see Frost again?

     

    Where’s the Jason Taylor thread where everyone sings his praises?


    We'll trade pick 1 for some dud injury prone key back no doubt

    Maybe the player we traded in for the player we paid pick 2 on

    Slooow slooow slooow!  Harmes and Frost about the only ones that have shown some pace but it's all ahead straight.

    For Christ sake kick a goal ?

    Big ups to Worsfold and the EFC.... this is a big wake up call...or not (I’m Ron Burgundy?)


    I’m [censored] filthy.

    I challenge anyone to listen to brayshaw’s half time interview in retrospect and not spew. I love the guy, but we are so complacent. It’s like everything was all good again because we strung 15 minutes of decent footy together.

    Wee needed that..

    First game I've seen this year, why is Weed jogging to contests!  Also don't let him handball

    Mahoney spent all his picks on tall defenders who don’t play

    What a disappointing pack of teasers we have out there. 

    Cannot withstand pressure.  

    Found lacking when the going gets tough.  

    Where are our leaders?

    What drivel will Goodwin serve up at the presser?

    FCS the Druggies are two men down and we still can’t get near 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.

    • GAMEDAY: West Coast

      It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?
