It took Yze 15 minutes to work out the game plan and tear us a new one. 

It's largely his gameplan

    Looks like we’re relying on Maxy to be our sole ruck AND key forward this season

    There are massive alarm bells, no defensive pressure, no skills and being out worked

    Yep and if he goes down then so does our season

    Laid a late-ish combined tackle/bump on McIntosh and looks to have hurt his ribs.

    that was a shocking 30 mins of footy from us - last 10 mins of the first and first 20 of the second

    something tells me Goody is going to be spending the next fortnight on defence


    Setting our own players up to be crunched from those bad decisions.

    And that's supposed to be our strength!

    The alarming part of that was the poor footskills and basic skill errors. Laurie, May, Neale Bullen and Tracca all noticeable poor in that department. Kozzie trying to play Hollywood football in February.

     

    the next concern is the lack of defensive pressure. We literally just leaked goals all over the place.

    pressure more so than defence per se i would argue

    the lack of effort was....strange

    2/7 time score?

    Things I’d like to see in the second half:

    - Billings on the wing to see if he can earn that spot 

    - Fritsch up the ground involved in play

    - Laurie more midfield chances

    - switches and moving to the fat side with the run rather than charging head first in to the press

    • 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?
