    Yep.  Found his feet a bit in that second half, particularly the last Q

    Missed the last quarter but it was mainly play on and fumble for the first three quarters. A pleasant change from hugging the boundary line.

    Let's see how it develops as the season goes on

    I don't get to training so I can't comment but on bigfooty a regular Melbourne supporter who attends said in all the pressure season training he went to, goalkicking practice was completely non existent. 

    Yes, the player do it on their own spare time after training but from he was saying there is a no structured training in place for this.

    If that's the case, then it makes sense that we are a very inaccurate team when shooting for goal

    One of the better games I have seen for us from Fullarton. Baldi was our best. TC was great. Bonner was good, but disposal was iffy at times. Handy game from Langford. Mentha didn’t get much of it but I liked what I saw when he did.

    Goal kicking was terrible. Lots of very straightforward shots.

    Yes. But he needs to take more care. Highly skilled but last qtr had 3 turnovers and a useless hand pass that put Sestan in a tackle. Was the right choice - just terrible execution. He was there to get the loose ball though. 
    Overall the whole team had too many turnovers but if they kicked straight at the start they wouldn’t have had any pressure.

    Casey showed some grit in the last. Campbell, Baldi, Craven and Langford flying the flag in the last stanza. 
     
    Somebody put their hand up for Specialist Goal Kicking Coach?

    oh yeah Picket!!!

    Baldi kept us in it. 
    TC got a lot of the ball but so many turnovers. 
    And what was he thinking when taking the boundary kick in?? Bonner, Sestan, Adams, Hore and others were all there.

    Missed the last quarter so little said by me on the players, but I’m a big fan of the English fella doing the commentary. Knows the players, and adds extra tidbits when he sees appropriate lulls. His off sider who was doing special comments, awful. Added very little of value and brought any banter to a virtual standstill, which speaks to the the others guys skill being able to overcome the handicap. Glad he does a lot of Casey matches, hope he gets some help soon though.

    Anyone tell me why Bailey Laurie is still on the list.  I know we have to give youngsters chances to shine but he’s had chances & is going backwards.  I saw him in the under 18s and he had a yard of pace, was smart and could hit a target in left or right foot.  Seriously has not developed at all and I couldn’t see why we extended his contract.  Given what he shows, this has to be his last year.

    • 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.
