Lever just refusing to defend tonight.


Port are just better let's just be honest. It hurts.

We knew we played poor teams.

Dissatisfied with Max and Jack though.

Edited by leave it to deever

How long until I’m allowed to turn it off without feeling too guilty?

Butters is absolutely slaughtering us 

He is doing what petracca or Oliver should be doing 


You’d swear it’s a dry day for Port, they are super clean.

Get the grippo out please.

Getting embarrassing now

It’s amazing that we are playing in the rain and they are playing on a perfect dry afternoon. The contrast is hard to understand 

Getting absolutely slaughtered in clearances - costing us any hope of winning this.

He started the season in fine form but has disappeared in the last few.

Why the f would Hunter kick over his shoulder and center the ball rather than push it along the boundary? For all the praise he gets for his 'footy IQ', I honestly cannot see it

His IQ can’t compete with his legs and courage both being finished. I’ve never seen a regular 22 midfielder with so little power in the legs 

how to beat melbourne part A: never bomb the ball, kicks on the 45.  Part B: win all the contested ball measures. 

 

HTF does a team with Oliver Petracca Viney Gawn and Brayshaw get beaten at the coal face?  And yes, it does matter. We’re not winning “the next” possession either.  

 

Needed that.

Challenge: can we kick a few in a row? Port have had a quick answer every time

It's raining now i get that but even earlier when there wasn't so much....

Grundy ok around the ground sort of.... but boy he makes a meal of a fair number of contests and disposals.

He's a big man yes and you expect some fumbles and clumsiness but gotta say he just lacks clean hands alot of the time and gets caught a fair bit.

Does he use grippo as many of the other boys do i wonder?

Hopefully he can keep things a bit cleaner frol here albeit not expecting much now that its pissing down.

Nice goal from the Traccstar there

  • 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?
