    I didn't see (and won't be seeing...) the game.

    I'm interested to see if those who did saw any place for a Dee.

    Goodwin's voting is eloquent.

    certainly no Demons deserved a vote

    even if double the votes were given out

    I wouldn't have given any Dee a vote

    I probably would have give the 5 to Waterman; he was immense and a great comeback story.  A lot of Fraser Gehrig about him.

    Reid is something else!  Probably worth the 3 first rounders we could have offered and even the 2 and 3 Nth wouldn’t cough up.
    Only injury can stop him imho.

    Agreed, at least Goody didn't go down the Chris Scott route

    They are an accurate reflection of the game.  Wouldn't have had a Demon anywhere near the top 6 or 7 players on the ground.

    Absolutely not.

    ANB, Chin and Kosi were OK, as was Salem in his first game back post hammy.

    The rest had games they would want to erase from memory.

    If Steven May has not punched a large hole in a wall post game I'd be surprised.

    First match since Round 9 2020 where no Melbourne player polled any coaches votes.

    Agree with those votes. West Coast have some top shelf players who played incredibly well on the day and our players were way off. I do find it a bit weird that Reid and Waterman can play like deadset the best 2 players in the competition, Darling, Kelly and McGovern can wind back the clock and Liam Ryan can rediscover his mojo ALL ON THE SAME NIGHT that Gawn, May, Petracca and co suddenly look like suburban footballers. That's footy I guess, and why "8 goal win minimum" style comments in the pregame threads rarely age well.

    I wonder if Goodwin put into time into the above players? Probably not as he plays a systems game plan when most other coaches effectively use a /several tagging roles each week.

    Shutdown Kelly or Reid 

    Nullify McGovern 

    Craig McRae did it vs eagles the prior week.  He had a strategy.  Goodwin had nothing.  
     

    btw Goody could have given a one vote to a Dees player but that would be pretending to be one of the Scott brothers!!!

    Chandler was GARBAGE as he has been for a while now!

    And yet Peter Ryan in The Age decided that Petracca was the fifth-best player on the ground and gave him 7 votes (with Reid, Waterman, Kelly and Barrass each getting 8 votes).

    • REPORT: Geelong

      I was disappointed to hear Goody say at his post match presser after the team’s 39 point defeat against Geelong that "we're getting high quality entry, just poor execution" because Melbourne’s problems extend far beyond that after its 0 - 4 start to the 2025 football season. There are clearly problems with poor execution, some of which were evident well before the current season and were in play when the Demons met the Cats in early May last year and beat them in a near top-of-the-table clash that saw both sides sitting comfortably in the top four after round eight. Since that game, the Demons’ performances have been positively Third World with only five wins in 19 games with a no longer majestic midfield and a dysfunctional forward line that has become too easy for opposing coaches to counter. This is an area of their game that is currently being played out as if they were all completely panic-stricken.

    • PREGAME: Essendon

      Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

    • POSTGAME: Geelong

      The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.
