Is Kozzy injured? He couldn't kick straight to save his life.

    3 out of bounds in the last qtr!!

    Are we now finals chokers?

    Consecutive losses: 3 with pretty poor performances in each. 

    Also bugger off Richo and Maynard had no care for how Gus was. Just trying to defend his thuggery. 

    So deflated. Blues/swans will know we are gettable. 

    Where did we go tonight???!!

    Grundy will be practising his set shots all week after this. Van Rooyen one week no doubt.

    Sad that even with our poor kicking we let Pies win tge game in tge first quarter. 

    Our midfield and wings were disgraceful in the first.

    And we'll go into the next match without Brayshaw and probably JVR. 

    Nice while it lasted, but we are not winning it from here even if we do win next week.

    Very selfish from Rivers, why take a 45 m kick when you have players all around the goal square.

    Lost in the first quarter. For a team coming off 2 insipid finals performances last year to get smashed at the contest like we did in Q1 is just hard to fathom.

    How many teams have done two consecutive straight sets exits? Are we going to add another 'embarrassing record' to our list?

    Essendon did it about six years in a row before becoming a powerhouse.

    That was sheethouse.
    Continuous long bombs into a crowded forward line and sheet kicking.
    I'm sure there'll be "learnings."
    But it won't be from the coach.

    Fritta and TMac looked like 2 guys who haven't played for months. And now we have to go the long way, without Gus or JVR.

    Tmac is cooked

    Literally just handed the flag to Collingwood.

    Here i was thinking I had full faith in Goodwin, but how wrong was i. We're heading for a straight set exit in finals two years in a row purely of arrogant teams selections and senior players failing to stand up when needed.

    McDonald, Salem, Chandler Laurie were absolutely trash.

    Petracca and Gawn were the only ones willing to stand up but unfortunately the rest didn't want to follow.

    McDonald can honestly retire for all i care. Needed that goal to just completely turn the game and he had a mare.

    So disappointing.

    I agree, JJ would have been better.  He was barely sighted (On tv) like a few of our players.

    Wet weather. Play slow. Kick behinds. Lose.

    Effectively killed our season in that first quarter. We knew that’s what they’d bring, more than anything else about the game. Match them, and it was ours to lose. Let them get a more than 3 goal jump, and it would be too much. That we failed to stop them is enormously disappointing and frustrating. But we just weren’t up to it. Hope it’s not a wasted chance at a flag, but it’s sure looking that way. And to any of you saying Collingwood don’t deserve to be where they are now, wake up! It’s a four quarter game.

    I felt sick after Gus went down, incredibly tough for the players to come back from that. Could be career ending.

    5 mins longer and we likely win that.

    Incredibly frustrating game and there’s some hard questions to be asked of a number of players.

    Also, Cox is the biggest piece of [censored] going round, the dive into Trac’s legs and then holding it while he twists is so incredibly dangerous

    That's the sad truth brother. Fingers crossed for Gus but it's not good news.

    • 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.
