    Derpwayne basically having an orgasm right now.

     

    Surely this is a coaching issue it just seems we have no structure defensively I can't understand how we arrived again this year with such a poor understanding of the basics of the game

    Supporters leaving already....?


    Ever since the R23 debacle, I made a promise to myself I'll always wait for Melbourne to earn my membership. 

    would have been easy to renew over the summer. 

    Very glad I waited. I know it isn't much - petty even - but it feels satisfying the Dees finally have to earn my money.

    Lever and May won't fix much.

    How is it possible to be, boringly once again, ahead on inside 50s yet be 7goals down. 

    Just has to be poor structure and incompetent coaching, and or lack of heart. 

    ONE BLOODY GOAL SINCE QUARTER TIME!  EXPLAIN  THAT GOODWIN looking more and more like an Essendon implant.

    Can’t use May and Lever as an excuse when they’re missing Carlisle and Roberton

    ...Being outplayed by the St Kilda Spuds. 

    Such mixed emotions. If my son hadn't been born on Wednesday, I'd call this a bad week. Instead, it's my best week ever. Maybe when my son starts to follow along we'll be ok?

    We climbed what felt like Mt Everest with an albatross around our neck, when we finally got there we got a little taste of the chocolate, then fell all the way back down right back to purgatory.

    It's time for a rebuild!!

    You are diverting. Nothing wrong with the umpiring.

    Miss finals (which now seems a certainty) and i expect a mass exodus of players looking for somewhere with a promising future at years end..

    This club is sick to its bones.


    I have said for two years that Goodwin needs to go. He is the worst coach in the comp. we lose the exact same way every week and are actually getting worse at it as at least we used to be able to score but that is now gone. 

    How we signed him for another 4 years without even giving him half a season to prove last year wasn’t a fluke, I will never know. 

    Another season down the toilet.

    That quarter was a genuine embarrassment. 

    They were +40 or so in disposals but +8 in tackles and they beat us in CPs. 

    That sort of effort is utterly disgraceful.

    • 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.
