but we're all right behind MN. Ok I'll also get behind him but we must agree if dees go around 0-22 we then revisit the coaching role for 2013. OK Rangerover?

Nope. I'll be lobbying for players who have a footy IQ in the 'animate object' range.

and the good news is we have hit rock bottom, and it's all up from here.

Go Dees

Strange the turnaround. We absolutely smashed these same stats between 2007 and 2011.

Here's another stat - roughly speaking in each game i have looked at the top 10 possesion getters and we rarely getting even a few in thee. for a stretch we didn't get anyone in the top 7 possesion getters on the ground, worse being Hawthorn I think who had all top 10.

Now against Sydney we had 5 top 10 possesion getters no the ground, 3 in the top 5 from memory. YET we lost by 100. I heard we also won the contested possesions.

How can this possibly be ?

Good ol' big Russian. At least someone's havin' a crack.

 

My oath

It looks like our ladder position is set in stone

Good ol' big Russian. At least someone's havin' a crack.

Exactly!

A must keep player IMO!


Good ol' big Russian. At least someone's havin' a crack.

He's a damn good ruckman, but he's nowhere near as good a footballer as his tap stats suggest, because most of them go straight to his feet. If we could surgically graft a player to his big toe, then he'd become a much more valuable member of the team.

Is that why we are on the bottom of the ladder?

Fairly sure we are around 5th for contested marks, though it's not a super important stat!

Because you can make stats apply to anything you want.....Against (can't remember) we had 50 less poss but were winning the quarter.....Make of that what you will....

We suck absolute wang, no doubt about it.

  • POSTGAME: Essendon

    Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

  • GAMEDAY: Essendon

    It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?

  • PREVIEW: Essendon

    As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.
