GWS held on for a dramatic victory that puts the Giants (28 points) four points outside the eight and leaves the Demons’ top-four spot vulnerable.
“I can’t question the players’ effort,I can’t question their want,their desire,really tough conditions – but to have 27 shots at goal,70 entries,plus 40-odd in the contest and lose a game of footy,that’s tough,” coach Simon Goodwin said.
“Inefficiency cost us again,and it’s something we need to get right. We’re working incredibly hard on it but it’s just not coming together ... if we keep that effort and we keep that work,it’ll turn pretty quickly.

“We weren’t able to take opportunities when we had them and our inefficiency cost us the game for a few weeks in a row now.
“So we need to get that right as a footy club ... we ain’t stopping in our bid to get better,we’re gonna keep working on it and eventually the wheel will turn.”
Melbourne kicked 8.18 in their loss to Geelong,8.18 in their win over Collingwood and 8.13 when they beat Carlton.
