I think we'll just have to accept the goal kicking boots just aren't on tonight, so we'll have to win this ugly. Well, uglier then it's already been anyway. 

Can't wait to never talk about this game after the win.

    Our goal kicking is beyond bad. This game should be done and dusted.

    Still kicked 5-7 but at least been have a lead. Hopefully we get a run on in the final quarter & kick more goals than behinds

    Hunt really dumb coming inside there.  Had plenty of time to stop prop and try & hit a target.  Instead the red veil continues.

    Tracc pretty much the same from 50 in the clear earlier

    We’ll if it wasn’t for those 19 points we’d only be up by 2.

    10-20 frees our way. So expect the mother of all even ups this last quarter.

    The stats are showing that we are making a total mockery of them. This should literally be a 50 point lead. Need to kick at least 3 in this last quarter, just need to do enough and we're off.

    Jeez Weideman would want to do something decent in the last.

    Surely he doesn't have many goat photos left?

    Fritta blasted trac for blazing away at the goals

    Too many selfish shots on goal

    Yep we are 10 goals up except we can’t kick for goal.

    Better in that quarter, but there is a reason to be concerned.

    I am concerned about some of the more selfish shots on goal. Instinctive football is one thing but this reminds me a bit of the Collingwood loss last year when everyone was trying to bring about 'the play' to spark the team. We were all so interested in being 'the hero' we ended up kicking ourselves out of the game.


    The thing about this game for my eyes, we have had total domination across the vast majority of the game except for a few very short periods of time. This is a 15 goal win that will likely only be a few goals due to poor kicking. Don’t let the score be misleading

    Richmond are nowhere near us in quality. Miles away. Yet they’re actually still in the game. If it weren’t so disturbing, it’d be funny. 

     

    Not sure you can blame Weid with the ball coming in. It's been atrocious. And he still has two and has competed strongly in the air. 

    Smith a liability defensively. No time for him whatsoever.

    • 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.

    • GAMEDAY: West Coast

      It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?
