Ok, they need to kick as many goals in the last as they have all match. We need to kick 2 and we win.

 

What a shame the umpires haven't improved their skills during lockdown. Razor Ray = still no idea.

    Any danger in Tom McDonald doing something decent?

    He’s been poor for a while now. Needs to massively improve

    That is EXACTLY what we needed and need Petracca to be. Someone to take the game by the scruff of the neck when its in the balance. 

    100% agree. Been saying for two years he has got to be a bit more selfish and take shots himself, rather than always look to do the team thing and look for the pass (though he does that well)

    Melksham has been terrible.

    Jetta still got it.

    C'mon Dees find that first quarter form. Gawn BOG then Petracca, then Oliver then Langdon then Salem then Hunt

    Nope, Smith has been pretty disappointing in my books

    Smith is being played out of position.

    He needs to be forward which is further reinforced by McDonald’s inability to provide a target.


    I'll be putting ny phone away for 25 mins. Still can't handle the close ones

    Loving Petraccas game. he looks dangerous every time he goes near the ball. With viney, if he gets hold of you you are gone.

    It was meant for HB, but he wasn't expecting and ran forward.  lack of knowing your teammate yet.

    Steady, you are Demonland, joy,  despair, ecstasy, vitriol, hand wringing all in the same minute

    Expecting dispassionate observation?

    How did he miss Harmes getting 50 and then getting blatantly blocked on his way to down to take the kick?

    It's a clear second 50 and certain goal when we had all the momentum.  Ridiculous he let that go.

    Hogan kicked 2 goals in the seconds game today.  Would prefer us to have at least one big target.

    We're better off just kicking it along the ground and hoping for the best at the moment.

    Now lets see about our supposed fitness


    What has happened to TMac?

    Totally bereft of confidence.

    Is it just me or does Jackson have a completely confused look every time he gets the ball?

    • 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.

    • GAMEDAY: West Coast

      It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?
