We are so far off it, it's not funny. Still only 5 points down.

Baker is a poor footballer.

 

Not working hard enough at all. Getting schooled in the uncontested 82 to 46. Need a rocket up the pants 

Doubling us in uncontested possessions. Absolutely inexcusable. 
Total lazy rubbish. Too many players ball watching. Fritta our only winner. 
Gawn and Oliver properly drinking it up. 


We are being outplayed, outmatched, outmarked snd outsmarted by the bottom team. This is ridiculous. Pull your head in dees ?

    North have been starting games well and it's unsurprising they're giving us some cheek.  However, there's only a goal in it and I'm confident we'll still win and win well.

    Shame about Thommo.  Come on down, Harry Petty.

    Isn't he out injured as well?  Maybe get White on the list (again)!

    Baker too one dimensional, plain and simple 

    Has not been good.

    Poor Harmes.

     

    Watching Tomlinson is breaking my heart. It’s just so so awful.

    North have done this most game this season but fallen away in the second half. Still we look a bit off.

    North have started several games well this year. The trend is they always drop off in the second half.

    No need for panic.

    Yet.

    Based on the quality of the teams we should be six goals up by now.

    Well that was borderline embarrassing. 
     

    Midfield getting spanked. 


    Melksham tagging Zeibel? If so, he’s doing a terrible job.

    We just don’t look up to it today 

    Losing Viney and Tomlinson hasnt helped but yea we look flat .

    Petty was named as an emergency for this game, so it seems like he's ok to go.

    Missing Viney big time

    Gawn has got to get his [censored] together. You’re the captain. Stand up.

    Very lazy today and playing like trash, yet still only a few points down. Once we get going we should get well on top.

    Sidenote, Baker is not up to it. Doesn’t ha e the smarts, skills or stamina on the wing or in the middle. Only chance left to save his career is as a pressure forward IMO. His only good game at afl level thus far was when he kicked a few ripping goals. 

    Ok this start doesn't surprise me. But Christ we need to lift. 

    Shattered for Tomlinson. 

    We need to start manning up on them. The uncontested count is disgraceful. 

    Lift Melbourne

    • 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.
