Our kicking is poor. As usual.

Lucky omac can hit a target.

 

Some OK signs but just as many worries. ANB, Petracca, Brayshaw, Tomlinson decent.

Jetta, AvdB, Oliver and few others well off the pace.

    Good pressure so far. Just need to capitalise on the scoreboard more.

    3 set shots missed! We just have to fix that or we waste another season. Wasn’t Lewis taken on as goal kicking coach? He is commentating but not taking ownership. 

    Hawthorns disposal have been garbage as well- it’s the wind.

     

     

    Come on  Dees!  Preseason  or not Hate losing to the Mongrel Hawks. Stressed before the season actually starts.

    Weid needs to start clunking marks. 


    Poor skill from both teams. All the summer training and they are still rusty.  MFC dominate inside 50s with little scoreboard impact or pressure. 

    whyyyyyyy can't weed mark it

    he gets to the right spots time and time again, his second efforts are good, his kicking is generally sound...but he just doesn't clunk the marks

    He did down back I think that might be his future.

    One day Weid will take a mark. 

    Yes. Built like Tarzan but plays like ... well he should be stronger at marking the footy like he really wants it. 


    Really glad we've sorted our goal kicking over the summer...

    Did at Casey too 

    The funking hilariousness of blanket statements being made on the basis of a qrt. It’s preseason, for all :)

    Langdon is a 10/10 pick up. Love him. 
    He is fast and he can kick. Already he’s 100 times better than anyone we’ve had on a wing in the past 4 years.

    Super kick from Milkshake.  Love him from that distance.

    Great link up play too.

    Skills aren't great, true, but the conditions aren't exactly conducive to it.  Slippery all round the ground.

    • 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.
