Jeffy bashing on here today is over the top.  He has done a few bad things but he is certainly not alone there.  At least he is having a crack.

Trac trying his guts out and having an impact, but how the hell did he kick that so badly.

Fairly happy with Stretch's game today.

Harmes really working hard and had a good last half of that quarter.

How good is Max Gawn... we would be five goals further behind if it wasn't for his marking behind play alone.

COME ON DEMONS.

    Apart from that horrible set shot, Petracca has looked dangerous all game.

    He’s got the yips when the pressure is on. Needs a psychologist for his goal kicking.

    With that ball drop he did well to make contact!

    His best game all year

    Dangerous at ground level

    Awful set shot, but otherwise good

    5 possessions, 1 tackle, 1 behind at the half.

    Sadly that probably does qualify as a good game for him.

    At least Jeffy is getting the ball, pretty big step up

    GLASS HALF FULL for a minute... If we can hit a few targets and then finish a couple of opportunities then it's a big improvement 

    But hard to fathom how bad our skills have been WT complete F !!

    If a 5 disposal half with one of those being a shonker kick at goal his best all year then we well and truely are up [censored] creek.

    I actually think Petracca is been decent (not great, but decent) most of the year. He was terrible and fumbly last week, but most other weeks he has actually had really nice touch. Needed to kick that goal though.

     

    What is it with Jones and wanting to nail a player 45m away amongst other players by foot and kicking off one step?! 

    He does at least 2 of them every match and turns it over. Stop doing it mate, it doesn’t work and it’s horrible that a supposed leader of our club continues to do it!

    I'm really concerned with Hibbo's disposal as well. Still terribly out of form. Last year his penetrating kicks out of defense set put a lot more pressure on with transition. We need it back.

    Am I missing something?

    Perracca 5 possies and can’t kick a simple shot.

    ANB 4 possies and 10 fumbles.

    Worst footy I have seen in years.


    I don’t like to bag players too much but I’m really not sure what ANB contributes. Hope he has a big second half but he is so fumbly. Just runs around doing nothing

    the mac brothers ,fair dinkum at least try

    Rohan Bail and Sam Blease used to also try. At this rate the Mac brothers are done.

    Wouldnt even get a trade for them these days.

    I find the Jeffy commentary pretty funny. He’s made us look more dangerous going forward than we have all year and people want him gone.

    The decisions and execution will come as he gets game time. He’s getting to the right spots and doesn’t move like treacle. Two things we desperately need.

    Oh for the days when Tom Mac used to knock off an easy 4 or 5 goals a game.

     

    What has happened to T Mac??

    he is playing like Herman Munster!!

    has to have multiple injuries

    • 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.
