Chandler and Spargo are no goal sneaks.

I hope Kozzie doesn't get reported again.

He's let his mates down.

I know we don't have any options other than Schache but gee whiz it's been three years since Jackson left we replaced him with Grundy and then gave up.

Take a look at the bump. It was a ridiculous suspension. The only head high contact was their heads clashing.

    I wish Yze had of hung around for a tad longer 😏

    You don’t win premierships before labour day.

    The degree of fumbling at ground level is a huge concern. 

    I just don't think we're ready for the season at all.

    Grundy played well tonight but he isn’t half the player gawny has been over the journey

    Goodwin is a coach that can only deliver when everything goes his way unfortunately.

    Yeah I’ve been a Goodwin supporter for the last 2 years amongst all the criticism, but I’m starting to run out of arguments against that notion

    Classic example there.  Sparrow gathers... then fumbles.  Then Clarry over runs the ball.

    Careful you can't say anything wrong about the premiership coach

    GRUNDY BOG NICE ONE MFC!

    We are easily the fumbliest team in the AFL

    ANB and Sparrow the biggest culprits.

    Grundy BOG 


    Where's the Grippo boys?  Fumble city

    S h it house performance.

    Absolutely 

    Gee, Grundy torched Max

    More worryingly, we can’t even handball to a target 5m away and yet the lizard is taking running bounces all over the ground.

    This team has an incredible ability to suck the life out of me

    Embarrassed by an under strength Swans outfit and skills shown up in the conditions.

    Not looking like top 8 material after this performance.

    And losing Bowey to injury. Just the start to the season we needed.

    Well maybe there's some truth in the narrative.

    We look awful for most of the night.

    Olivers not the same yet.

    Chandler .....when?

    Spargo...Gone backwards.

    Schache...I've said enough.

    Laurie....nup.

    Sydney have shown what we lack.....players who can mark inside fifty.

    Sparrow...never seems to go next level.

    Windsor...first game.

    Lever...looked rusty.

    Max....a bad night.

    Jvr......quiet.

    • 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.
