I'm amazed at how often we burn a player in space and go long to a contest instead. It seems every kick-in we'll have a player free straight up the ground at around the 45, and ignore him to go down the line to a contest. Incredible.

 

People we have the wrong coach & over invested in 2 defenders who can’t defend the goal line on 2 occasions! We now have Gc , Carlton, saints, Nth who have gone passed us again .. a disgrace after a decade of pain & early picks it’s like 2010 replay

We've just got to change the coach.  Players careers will be over before they know it, without any inspiration or leadership to get them through it with any sustained success.  

We can't let this go on, it's the way we're playing that's just devoid of any spirit or confidence.

After today I’m pretty confident we will have a new coach next year if we are serious


Hibberd good technique. 
Dangerfield no technique. 
Hibberd is suspended

Smith has looked better today. Amazing what can happen with a little bit of sorely needed game time.

 

Save for one non free on Tmac, umps have been very favorable to us.

Put Daisy Pearce in the box. 

Yep. Her earlier suggestion about keeping Petracca in the forward line was a good one too. 

are they drilled to man up?  are they drilled to find a team-mate?  where's the connection between max and the runners?  They've had a lot of time to get these things sorted.  Does Goodwin know what our players are skilled at?  

not worth watching - so utterly predictable.  And our blokes still guard the space where only a miskick will go; still wear themselves out chasing after the bolted horse.  Geelong is laughing at us  The whole competition is.  Goodwin, this is you

My favourite player already.


Milkshake tries to steal a third miss for the quarter but is denied by Hunt.

Seriously our back line is taking the [censored]. Thank god they dropped Jetta. Our only defender who isn’t busy trying to be a show pony and actually defends!

This this and this.

When Geelong have the ball you'd swear our players were instructed not to go near a player. Laziest bunch of idiots to play the game.


Oliver barely even jogging on the transition. I pray that the coaches start to tell him that this isnt on. He really has to work on his defensive running to become a great player. 

Really disappointed.

  • 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?
