    What's happened to Kozzys dare and speed? Been very irrelevant for weeks now.

    Biggest fan but let's be honest, he's a shadow of his former self. Since scoring back from 2 week suspension has been struggling. I like his fwd pressure but he's not really kicking goals and getting much use. Hopefully he proves me wrong tonight.

    How many clear centre bounce tap outs can we win but still not win the clearance?

    Goody will never drop him so it looks like he's playing without care or effort

    Just quietly we have 6 frees they have 2

    Which one of those 6 wasn’t there?. The HTB decisions were all perfectly executed and duly rewarded. 
     

    they need to call what they see, not even the ledger

    How can we change it? Bring more to the contest?

    Hit targets across the ground, stop binging it in.

    Our kicking - again, unpressured horrible errors leading to turnovers.

    Geelong half backs are slaughtering our half forwards. 

    The last 7 minutes looked better.

    Nothing much since his suspension.

    Don't blame him. Imagine playing to packed stadiums every week then walking into that dump of a half Auskick sized ground

    Is that whytheCats get paid marks for 5 meter kicks?

    Yeah he is gone for that. Has to be

    Should but won’t.

    Rivers called for it mostly stationary and Gus hit it out in front for Blicavs to intercept. Rivers never had a chance. Had Rivers gone harder he’s still not 200cm, the ball still would’ve been out of reach, Blicavs spoils anyway.

    Theres a fundamental game plan issue that players don’t move in and out of space in a coordinated effort to get the ball on the move.

    But if you are going to kick in to the corridor it has to be low and flat and Gus simply doesn’t have that kick. 

    Rivers was soft in the marking contest and the player calling for the ball has an obligation to win the footy

    Rivers should have used his body to shield the ball

    You're the same bloke who argued against forwards playing in front?

    Signs are ominous 

    If Tracc, Brayshaw, etc Al keep turning the ball over under little pressure we are going to be very disappointed.

    All of them were there, reckon they missed one or two for them though

    Kozzie wandering around in no man's land most of the first quarter. A few others need to lift their game too.

    • 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?
