    nobody kicking a bag of 6 for 157 games straight is as big as any of them

    Really? I don't think it matters. We've had a few 5-goal bags.

    Not on the list but the win on Sunday was our second in the last eleven matches versus the Bulldogs going back to March 2008.

    I like that I feel all of these records can fall within 18 months with Roos in Charge.

    And who can forget that second 90+ point belting in a row! The beginning of the end.

    I'd like to add a record that I'd like to see broken.

    Last time our leading goal kicker had 50+ goals was Brad Green in 2010. Since then we've had:

    2011: Jurrah (40)

    2012: Clark (29) (after 11 games)

    2013: Howe (28)

    2014: Dawes (20)

    A slow decline, but obviously it is being turned around with Garlett and Hogan.

    If Jesse plays every game at 2.6 per game he will hit that 50, which would be a magic feat for a first year player in a below average side

    He'll need us to slaughter a couple of sides so he can get a couple of bags

    I would like to see us beat north.

    Anywhere any time.

    Refreshed "Beat Collingwood" stat.

    If we can't knock out "Win at Etihad" and "Beat St. Kilda" this weekend, I might just give up on this club.

    We will break some of them in 2017 when we have a Coach

    Not even I can agree with that one budge.

    The problem is not the coach.

    • REPORT: Essendon

      Melbourne’s much vaunted finishing power evaporated at Adelaide Oval on Saturday afternoon, exposed for the third time in four years by its Essendon Gather Round hoodoo.

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      Not long ago, the narrative surrounding Melbourne was steeped in pessimism. There was some concern among the pundits (and even some fans) that the club would arrive at the AFL’s Gather Round still winless, vulnerable to a familiar adversary in the Essendon Football Club, and facing significant scrutiny from an ever-critical media on a national stage. Things have changed.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      Steven King astutely identified the issues that had plagued the Melbourne Football Club over the past two and a half seasons when he auditioned for the newly created coaching role. The side that had claimed the 2021 premiership had become stodgy, slow-paced, and hesitant to take the initiative.
