Gus one of many handballs to a phantom player this season.  Mind boggling.  Seriously need to trade.

 

Optimism meter now on 5%

 

7 plays back to back we've turned it over. These guys are brain dead 


All of a sudden we revert back to woeful skills and turnovers , to lock down second bottom on the ladder, and making sure Jordies last game is a forgettable one.

FMD our kicking has been appalling this quarter. It's like they are aiming to hit  an opponent or a spectator in the stand lace out

 

Lever is so over-rated. The number of times he turns over the ball or kicks it out on the full is atrocious. Totally unacceptable 

Fritta is literally the only forward with ANY footy smarts.


Fritz should never play backline again   We are stupid if we do

Lever by foot is just bloody hopeless.

He will, because we are.

It's the little things with the umpiring that get me.

Fritsch gets all the way back on his mark and going through his routine. Umpire then says Bailey, around 2 metres, and ah yeah, 15 gone.


Maxy why woukd you bother kicking it there?  Another rediculous habit we need  get out of our game.  The 3 foot handball inside is another criminal act.

Kicking efficiency back to season standard ...35%!

I've never seen ANB win a 50/50 ball . . . Ever. He should have accidentally won one by now


Has Tracc had a touch after quarter time lol

Everyone here at the pub:

"No way Gawn kicks this."

Me: "Yeah Gawn won't kick this."

Nek minnit...

Take a bow Max.

  • PREVIEW: Hawthorn

    Melbourne and Hawthorn who face off against each other this week have more in common than having once almost merged and about to wear a blue jumper with a red v triangle and an embroidered picture of a bird on the front. They also share the MCG as their main home ground, their supporters are associated with the leafy suburbs of Melbourne and in recent times, James Frawley graced the colours of both teams. Even more recently, both have bounced back from disastrous five game losing streaks to start off a season. Of course, the Hawks turned their bounce into a successful leap from the bottom of the ladder into a finals appearance, making it to the semifinals in 2024 and this year, they’re riding high in third place on the AFL table. The Demons are just three games into their 2025 bounce back, and are yet to climb their way out of the bottom four although they are sitting a game and percentage out of the top eight. However, with the current sportsbet odds of $3.90 to win this week’s encounter, it seems a forlorn hope that their upward progression will continue much longer.

  • 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.
