    There’s a couple of hours of my life I’ll never get back. I’m glad I know they worked so hard off season as if I didn’t Id swear theyre playing exactly the same way and repeating Exactly the same mistakes. Boring footy. Nothing team. I’m glad I don’t have to watch that [censored] for 10 more weeks.

    Deja Vu! Non existent delivery into a non existent forward line 

    I don’t think it’s an ability issue so much as a structural issue.  I have lost confidence in Goodwin

    Did we learn nothing from the 2018 Prelim ?

    Pickett in his debut was our highest scorer.  Don't know if I should be excited or worried about that???

    5 debutants, jumped at the start and lost by 27 points over in Perth. I'll take it.

    Well it’s good to see we have improved on last season. FMD. 
     

    No spread when defending, bombing it into the f50, missing targets, missing gettable goals and basically playing like we don’t have anything to prove from last season. 
     

    I’m glad the season has been suspended because having to see this [censored] again for another season would be horrendous. 
     

    imo Goodwin has to go. I know it’s an early call but NOTHING has changed from last season.

    Yes   from the last game of 2018, we have learnt nothing about kicking to one of our players inside our forward 50

    Let’s face it, Hibberd, Oscar and Spargo should never play a senior game again.

    Oliver is way ahead of himself. He has become lazy.

    We have no forward line. Tom McDonald is nowhere.

    27 points flattered the [censored] out of us.

    Nothing has changed from last year and now we can't use injuries as an excuse. 

    Today was extremely concerning and very disappointing. 

    Goodwin is in big trouble.

    Pickett, Viney, Lockhart and Bedford were the positives..

    Where was our leaders? McDonald, Jetta, Melksham?

    Hibberd is finished, see ya. And im afraid to say, but Jetta is just about cooked.

    ANB and Spargo are dead set suburban footballers.

    That's the most disappointing thing isn't it, nothing seems to have improved.

    We were never going to win that game. Maybe had a chance if the game was played in Melbourne and game was full length. 

    i50 delivery has not changed but it was never going to in 1 preseason. What’s more worrying is the defensive 50 and two way running effort.

    • 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.
