No doubt we're struggling, and that's down to how good the Lions are playing.  We just can't get any clean ball or any time to use it.  Full credit to them.

    Can we make anymore mistakes

    Well game is done 

    We had two good games against poor opponents. Sadly we are nowhere near good enough against quality opponents.

    Been saying this all year, but Jetta is finished.

    Gosh some of our boys go so cold with skills, intensity and focus once the wick is turned up.

    You could say the same for Jones.  Both have lost a yard or two of pace and they need to step aside now.

    Harmes is too slow - has been caught 3 times holding the ball. Where is Brayshaw?

    The midfield not benefiting from Gawn must get down to coaching - Fagan is wiping the floor with Goodwin. 

    Tough on him, 2 of them he had no prior but this new interpretation screwed him.

    Brisbane are very good but we have missed enough easy shots to be in front, let alone the effect of the putrid umpiring. We need to come out fired up and make the first ten mins count. And Goodwin, fix up the clearances!

    Totally agree, smashed in the clearances. Lions have been really good tbf. 

    We're still in this!

     

    Can someone be clean

    How the [censored] is that not a from against Andrews first

    • 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.
