    50 years of this [censored]. Tell me some of our senior players are trying. They looked apathetic when they run through the banner. They no the team is cooked. Trac and Oliver don’t want to be there the whole thing stinks

    Can we be the first team ever to sack a coach at half time.

    Take your [censored] game plan and [censored] off Goodwin

    These last two weeks have been the worst of his coaching career. 6 smalls up forward is insanity

    At the match , it’s even worse live. A complete and utter shambles. Woeful skills . Players who look dispirited and lost . I think Goodwin has to take responsibility for this mess.

    Well I have finally got there, Goodwin's game plan and direction isn't getting through. He has to go

    There's a reason our crowds are poor.
    Just awful football to watch.

    We have freo next week at the g Saturday afternoon. Won't even get 20 thousand

    This is actually heartbreaking. I used to get so mad watching this team during the Bailey, Neeld and Roos years. I've calmed down a lot. I am not even angry at this. Just heartbroken. This is the most boring, insipid football I have wayched in a while.

    Who knew that when you play one key forward who is only 193cm you won’t take F50 marks…. Oh that’s right every demon supporter and person other than the coaches.

    Hmmm 16 points in nearly a half of footy. I think we might have a serious problem scoring? (Among other problems, ofc)

    Also, oof, getting ugly. Already. Again.


    I actually cannot fathom how poorly we are playing. The effort* (for the most part) is there but the execution, my god.

    *Certain players excepted, Petty being the main offender for mine. Send him to the VFL

    How does Petty drop that mark. Our skills are just so poor.

    I’ve seen enough. We weren’t this bad even in the 80’s. The coach has lost this team. Hiss off Goodwin you’ve made us look like a laughing stock. TV off!

    This is the best way to put it.

    Exactly how I feel. Just really sad.

    I've watched every game so far except the Blues/Eagles. All entertaining games, we are just so boring to watch.

    Nothing has changed moving the ball inside 50.

    This could get real ugly in the second half.

    They have to stand up and fight the whole way tonight in the second half.

    I would say the opposite. Our skills are not that poor. Decision making or great. But we are not working hard enough at all

    18 more weeks of this debacle. Are we officially in crisis? Goodwin must go now!

    I didn't buy the love in stuff for a second. This place is rotten .

    Yeah maybe you're right, it just seems like we are just butchering it again and again especially going inside 50. Who the hell would want to play forward in this team.

    • 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.
