Gus letting his man roam free at half forward as usual. Allows the deep inside 50 and you never know what they’ll create from there 

If Gold Coast were a half decent footy club with some mongrel they'd pump us by 10 goals. They want it way more. If we switch it on just a bit we win. Gold Coast has a huge opportunity here.

 

Lazy tackle by Fritsch.


Ben King’s second touch, not all May’s fault

firstly, they're not a club they're a franchise

they are however playing well as a team

Love Bowza.

Also, that was a mess.

Would be nice to get some i50 marks. They seem to be all over us back there.

Terrible inside 50 from Oliver but you’ll take it

C'mon Fritter, LIFT!!!

Big second half coming up for the Hair Raiser!

1 kick, 2 HB just not enough Bailey

allowing to many GC players to run free, we always have trouble with teams that do that. We are lucky their disposal rate is not higher or we would be behind. we just dont know how to handle sides the run with the ball. Collingwood, Essendon and even Brisbane do it and we just dont cover the player running past, free players ahead, etc. I expect we will win, but so far not a very impressive performance that could very easily turn into a loss. where is the skill and precision we saw a part of at least against north.

Collingwood would murder us if we paly like this

    Bowey is the most reliable player in our side at the moment.

    Come on. Five more. Let's put this game to bed.

    We are a club with a strong culture getting seriously challenged by a team with no culture. Embarrassing 🤦🏼‍♂️

    Hunter.  What were you thinking?  Or, what, were you thinking?

     

    Derrwayne and Dunstan seeing every little thing GC way.  Pathetic barracking.

    This game doesn’t make sense.

    Why put a skinny kid like Turner on a bloke like Casboult?

    We are just bombing it anywhere into our forward line and it’s easily getting picked off.

    Lever, Oliver and Fritter need to lift big time.

    • 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.
