If you’re not worried about our disposal you’ve achieved the highest level of zen possible. 

death, taxes, and dees' turnovers giving away easy goals

    Jefferson the saviour? I doubt it.

    Saviour? I just want to see him (and the other players listed) take the field after having an interrupted pre-season.

     

    AND MORE OF THE SAME BOMBING INTO THE FORWARD LINE FFS !!🤮

    Do I think they’ll play with as little pressure as they are today come Opening Round? No

    Are there still concerning signs about our disposal and decision making (which have been an issue for years now)? Yes

    A bit of a pattern. I suppose you could blame it on our attempt to play fast football. Fastball is not our traditional strength

    Correct.

    I don't mind it though. We know we can play lockdown footy, it's the offensive exercution that kills us. Good to get some in game experience in.

    I’m so worried about it that I no longer am.

    Wait until next week, do you really want players to put there body's on the line for a scratch match, and get injured 

    You want to see something that shows we will be a better side, the key areas that we needed to improve was skill execution and forward line efficiency.  We have seen none of that

     

    The commentators have mentioned it a few times but the one positive from today seems to be Viney's inside 50s

    Poor Max.

    He looks like he hates having to kick at goal.

    Something needs to change. Just don't know what.

    • 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.
