Communication is an issue and, though it is a bit cliche, presence of mind.

 

Bad patch of umpiring decisions!

    This is the sort of game I support bringing in Vanders with the sole purpose of breaking heads. These Geelong scumbags need a good bloody smashing. 

    "I did mistakenly suggest that we hold AVDB back until the PF. Let him cut loose now if he's fit but within limits. Hit a few hard in the meantime. Have a few games. But save his best aggression for the GF if not suspended. Just like Essendon did to us." 

    Earlier post from this year.

    There no talking in our back line. Spoiling each other

    I see the good review camera has reappeared. What a surprise.

    FMD it's a grand parade of Geelong umpiring decisions!

    How was Max not paid the free for push off?

    Their finishing is far superior to ours. At the pointy end, this sadly means everything.

    Viney like a bullet!

    Is Tom McDonald playing tonight?


    I don’t know bout y’all but I’m wondering can Goodwin talk to the umpires at half time and ask them to get their geelong jumpers off? It’s blatant

    Why are we playing on at all costs and trying to thread the needle with passes too often?  Also handballing to players that are one foot away.

    Very few are taking responsibility with ball in hand.

    Poor kicks coming inside 50 that started with Tracc... again.

    Also there are too many at the contest.  Stay out and hassle your direct opponent.

    Pressure up in our forward half.   Too much room / time for them to work.

    Harmes clean it up mate.  Awful so far.

    • 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.
