the first time we go long and direct we score a goal.

We consistently handball 1-2 times too many.

    Hot garbage. Lucky they can’t kick and keeping us in it. 

    Headless chickens.

    Not really. We're winning most contests. the problem is we spud it up across half forward and gift them 2-3 easy marks and entry.

    Just wait until Cox turns it up. 

    Must be watching a different game to you because I’m not seeing us win most contests at all.

    Agree on Cox though.

    Another embarrassing goalless quarter coming up. Insane how we can go from highest scoring team to lowest scoring team over one offseason. Pathetic that the coaches haven’t sorted it out yet. Can’t win a game if you don’t score! 

    Don’t worry Goodwin has 4 more years to not fix anything.

    You line up at the opening centre bounce with Jones on one wing and Spargo on the other. I just cannot fathom it.

    More space in our forward line please.

    Lever looking ok.

    I think we will win 2nd qrt.

    Fritz has really gone backwards. 

    Nice to see a bigger body than omac down back.

    Whatever result, clear that May and Lever will make us a considerably better team.

    by this time next year Goodwin wont be our coach. We are just biding time....wasting time!

     

    The people critical of vineys leadership and bad disposal the same calling for Gawn to be captain he started  the chain of handball clangers with a 1 metre handball miss at the first clearance

    In one quarter of footy we managed to display every type of skill error it is possible to execute on a footy field. 

    The backline would not want to be judged by the same standards as applied to Oscar McDonald.

    Collingwood playing like last year's grand finalists.

    Why is it allowed for Grundy to pull the back of Gawn’s jumper everytime at ball ups? Blatant holding. Same thing happened numerous times last game.

    That last bit of play was unbearable.

    You had Hannan streaming out of the square for a lead, a PADDOCK in front of him and Harmes decides to kick long to the goal square..

    We wouldn’t beat Carlton or GC17 the way we are playing

    No one can hit a target, midfielders don’t work defensively, we are slow on transition and look completely devoid of any skill whatsoever 

    Its last year’s QB all over again 

    Our backline are killing though.

    • 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.
