It’s like we put money on the tigers.  We dominated and yet missed so many easy shots.

    Everytime Neal Bullen gets it he turns it over.

    His worst game for a long time. Only upside from here.

    Bad kicking is bad football.

    Time to reset and grind out four points.

    Will be interesting to see what Weid does this second half. No Pressure.

    Hope that’s not the attitude inside the rooms. Gotta make it happen.

    Fritta needs to get on his bike. Vloustin is his opponent and is destroying him and us. 
    Trac also really quiet.

    I’m done with Weid. Move his [censored] to the dead pocket and tell him to play up and down that flank only.

    Park BBB in the square and have the smalls rove off him

    Agree. Intensity, intent, all good. We just buggered up 10 easy shots at goal and it blew the wind right out of us when they go inside 50 once and goal immediately. 
    Bad kicking is bad football. It’s honestly inexcusable for top quality players to miss these shots and once the rot starts it’s hard to stop because it becomes mental.

    It shows you the importance of goalkicking.  Players are professional and train or play 6 days a week but in general goalkicking is getting worse!!!

    Nathan Buckley’s trying to argue that Richmond have forced this scenario. He’s completely ignoring our inaccuracy. That’s the game right there. Appalling commentary from someone who should know better.

    • 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.
