This pathetic capitulation is now effecting our percentage and could cost us too 4. WAKE THE [censored] UP YOU WEAK DOGS

 

Embarrassing, insipid & lazy football when the game is there to be won, we roll over & die. No desperation, no desire, no fight.. We’re such an average football club who are content with a good showing every now & again. I don’t think we have the determination or grit to win another flag.

We lost this game when we got off the bus. Goodwin selecting Petty over Tomlinson is a joke.

We lost this game because we have kicked six goals from 49 inside 50s.

Spare me mate! Tomlinson is a C grader at best 

Agree they’re making out that this is the reason we lost the game, maybe it’s because our disposal is 2nd rate & we have some very dumb footballers


Now the problem is our percentage!

Our forwards have to be some of the softest footballers, I haven't seen a forward group get done this badly in 1 on 1 contests. 

They all look immune to having a crack, genuinely pathetic effort from the lot of them.

Out coached, outplayed, outworked. Imagine thinking that Smith, Van Rooyen and Gawn is a finals standard forward line, or that Spargo is a worthy sub option, or that our goal kicking is not a massive issue. 

Smith had a good first half. JVR is close to useless as main key forward. 

How far off is BBB? His presence is sorely missed

Credit to cats defence tonight.

Shame on our entries too.

They shut down Max and kept him to zero marks.

You know when that happens we are going to struggle. 

Sadly we didn't want this with many Senior players too doing sfa in the last.

Was there for tge taking and we didn't.

Could have cemented top 4.

Petty was an absolute shocing call.

Chandler out.


Stand up Melbourne for [censored]'s sake. Geelong wanted it more, show some response.

I can't believe people are still asking this question around the bye.....

So it that the excuse next week of a 9 day break again if we loose 

How many times tonight, has our forward entry been a long bomb to Kozzie v Stewart? 

Same thing happened last year. Got within a few points and then they blew us away with a flurry of goals.


At least I won $200 on a disposals bet with trac, viney, salo and riv. 

4 goals in 6 minutes? Game on!!! 😆

 

Bit late to put Petty forward, Goody. Should've happened at half time, especially given Cameron was off

  • 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?
