    Getting ugly.  
    Needs a couple of goals urgently. 

    How often does Maxy tap it to their forward and concede a goal. Ridiculous

    Lions can win the flag this year. Make no mistake about it. They are sensational. 

    I beg to differ. Put them on the MCG and their record is [censored] poor.

    ? Entries are too shallow - get the ball in deeper than 40+ meters out more often and to a target.

    ? Neither Kossie or Spargo can make the distance (accurately) from 40 or more which is a real worry

    ? Mids are too close to the ball up area.. need a few more on the outer ring

    ? The inside mids, aside from Clarry on a few occasions, need to get moving at the ball up.  Far too stationary.

    ? Maxy if you can't see an obvious red & blue guernsey at your feet thump it clear towards our goals when competing up the line.

    ? Please close down the forward half zone.  Too much room / time being given to the Lions HBs.

    ? T-Mac get into the game higher up pls and intercept.

    ? Weid & LJ put some Grippo on pls. 

    ? Weid stop running under the ball so often.  Not AFL standard here and you've had 4 seasons to get this right now.

    So we come out, give away a dumb free and then give away a dumb goal.

    Great start.

     

    Go Dees.

    Beat these so wanne be tough guys.

    Bears seem allowed 2x the time of ours to get rid of it. 
     

    Spargo in the back ignored

    • 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.
