Decision making and execution of basic footy skills?  (So 2019) Tiggers game plan simply straight out of jonathan livingston seagull, patiently await delivery of football as the other mob will definitely turn it over. I know its an inconsequential practice game rant # ?

*Edited. Maxy just nailed a lovely set shot

Who would’ve thought. Having read some of the comments I thought we were getting slaughtered.

    The mids really need to work on their i50 kicks, shocking delivery by most of them, oliver and track the biggest culprits. C . Salem showed them how it is done, seriously got to get Salem up the ground and look to get the ball into his hands for i50 kicks


    Jackson 6   and Spargo 9  standing together    obviously twins !

    Are we down by 7-8 goals? Sorry at work so not watching the game.

    I watched a few minutes and thought it looked a bit breezy kicking to the right.  Came on here to discover it's actually we are just 1990's Fitzroy reincarnated with no skills.

    Another crumbing goal for Richmond

    Jones two turnovers  2goals 

    Not good enough

    Oliver answers Richmond's goal with an absolute cracker on the run from the centre square.

    Midfield has been looking very good in the contest. Much more comparable to 2018.

    More of what we need from Oliver there

    Wish his first instinct was to give it off, rather than engage in body contact

    I think a lot of the negativity is because it's the same weaknesses from previous seasons

    • 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.
