We have literally no chance of winning the flag if we keep playing like this.

    We must give more frees away for goal than any other clubs. Brown flopping around like a fish on the deck of a boat.

    One dimensional. Teams worked us out long ago now. Too late to implement a different game plan or get in good coaching now. Wasted year.

    Entries inside 50 atrocious as usual.

    Free against Gus was wrong. McKay kicked him in the leg. No tackle.

    JJ needs a spell, hasn't been right for weeks. High pressure game at the moment but it will open up in the second half. Hopefully in our favour.

    Clearly still loading.....

     

     

    P.S. we are in front 7-4 in free kicks.

    We need a forward line.

    Haven't come to play yet, hope Goody has a rocket for them. No lowering the eyes, expecting others to do the work, don't even know what the corridor is.

    Ben Brown can not mark a football. Runs under it 3/4 of the time and misses the other 1/4.

    1.2 from 13 inside 50 is pretty damning.  But we don’t have a forward connection problem of course, do we. 

    Brown needs to play in front, can't mark from behind and oppo give away free kicks when he's in front

    I know Langdon likes his wing but mix it Up. JJ ends up doing all the work taking hits, while Langdon racks up kms

    Playing like this, it doesn't matter where we finish up next week, we'll just be making up numbers. We keep kicking to the wing, but we have hardly anyone who can actually take a mark or kick the goal when they do, and we have Max who doesn't know where the goals are anymore. I hope they have written "buy a good for forward" and a proper forward coach on the whiteboard. 

    The window for "we'll come good" is getting smaller by the second.

    Ugh, what a waste.

    • 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?
