When was the last time Melbourne:

- Conceded this many marks in defensive 50

- Conceded this many scores from centre clearance.

Chandler? You got to be kidding, he may have the desire but his executions ... 🤦🏻

Easily our best on ground.

I mean, seriously, he leads us for marks inside 50, goals, score involvement and metres gained, is behind only tall defenders for 1%ers, going at 75% disposal efficiency.

Has been our only clear winner on the ground.

The fence sitters to sign up as members just fell off the other side and off the cliff 🧨

Memberships numbers will drop even further with this [censored]

 

I want to see a lot of players dropped after today.

But what I really want is every single person at the club responsible for not fixing our fwd line issues that have been so glaringly obvious for just too long.

Surely that's fair.

I think those of us who pay their membership and go each week deserve a lot better than this. Much,much ,much, better.

It's hard to understand that we won a flag less than only FOUR years ago.

And how far we have fallen since we almost beat the 23 premiers and we're likely to win a flag.

I guess there are a couple of superstar midfielders that let us down and the club has done the rest.

It's a shame really. I know it's early days but I think this will be a bad marker like that Freo game when things went belly up.

I know it's not Goodys fault but I think it's alarm bells now and time to panic.... Time for a sweep for me. 

Cheers guys.

Going to be great seeing the happy clappers gloss over this performance

Disgusting and disgraceful are the two most apt words

 

It can't be overstated how pathetic our football skills are

 

Thanks for killing the team Simon


Some of these comments are absolutely absurd.

Xerri is best ruck in the comp and still on the rise. Max had one bad game against him. He doesn’t need to retire after one poor game. 
 

Langdon was a bright spot last year and he’s being asked to shift roles this year. He’s had a bad game. Doesn’t mean his career is over. 
 

Get a grip people. 


What’s happened to the Trent Rivers who was supposed to be our breakout midfielder this year? 
 

We can’t even attract any quality free agents because they know we’re a basket case due to the selfish actions of some our supposed leaders. 

I cannot wait to see what the defenders say about this performance; wet last week, I didn't have enough sleep, or their loading, spin it all you like. It’s woeful, one-paced midfield being showing up again.

Agree it's been an issue for far too long. But the absolutely lunacy and idiocy of the kicking i50 is just as bad an issue, if not worse. From seasoned, best and fairest winning midfielders. One in particular today.

Imagine the crowd next week against the Gold Coast. Glad I've got other plans

All I have to say is [censored] ‘em… they are so disinterested and making zero effort. Absolutely hopeless!!!! And that’s coming from an eternal optimist.

Yep. The lack of effort is very evident. I’m honestly a bit shocked. 
 

Dunno what’s happening within the group/club, but second game of the season and playing like this is a massive concern. 

Was there a wedding or 21st last night. Maybe fat boy slim gig. Either way our prep was terrible to put on this display. 

No need to be alarmed, we’re 3.3% above the bombers on the ladder. 

 

I’m up in level 3 with two Roos-supporting mates. Good times.

  • 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.
