Essendon have won this game purely on the fact they are fresher because they have played 7 weeks straight in Melbourne.

Nice one AFL. Makes me wish we took drugs in 2013.

Wow, probably the most uneducated comment I've read in a while.

Essendon played Swans at SCG in Round 14, so only our 6th game in Melbourne in a row,

Not a bad run, but probably makes up for playing interstate in Rd 2, Rd 4, Rd 7 & Rd 11. Four interstate trips in the first 11 rounds, 5 in the first 14.

But yep, that's why we won, not because we had 8 more scoring shots, kicked poorly, and escaped with an 8 point win.

Agree with Brendan, looked like no one wanted 8th spot today.

    Oh well, point well made then. Only the 6th game in a row in Melbourne! And it's such a just reward for taking drugs and disgracing the entire competition. You've been so harshly dealt with.

    In the same 6 week period we've played in WA, Melbourne, Darwin, Tasmania and Canberra. And what did we do to deserve that? Not create a 'pharmacologically experimental environment' that injected young men with god knows what.

    Enjoy the hollow victory of getting something you don't deserve. Shall I call you Jobe? ?

    I honestly don't see the link between the Supplements saga and our 2017 fixture.

    We play 6 interstate away games this year, just happens that 5 of them were in the first 14 rounds and only 1 in the remaining.

    Melbourne on the other hand only have to play 4 away games interstate this season. It's not Essendons or my fault if your club have decided to play home games in Darwin.

    Injuries and suspensions are probably the main factors as to where Melbourne are now, not the "tough" fixture.

    Just  to clarify.  Can't just count the 'Away' interstate games.  Need to count the 2 'Home' games in NT. Total 6 interstate games.  A gruelling mid year schedule with many 6 day breaks mostly back to back.

    Lions leading the Dogs @ 3/4 time.

    If they win unfortunately Ess stay in the 8 :mellow:  (No offence @Ash35 I like your presence on our board, but can't warm to your team)

    It also means round 22 vs Lions will be a very tough game for us to win.

    On top of that we finish the season with 3 games at the MCG against teams below us, while Bombers travel to GC and also have the Crows next week.

    A finals spot has been ours to lose all year and we fluffed it epically by losing to North.

    We're going to be left behind yet again by Carlscum, Brisbane and Essendon. Totally disillusioned

    Yep, the 6 day breaks Melbourne have copped this year have been ridiculous.

    Sorry Bloke, don't mean to annoy.

    I was just replying to an uneducated baloney post about Essendon playing 6 games in a row in Melbourne because we took drugs 5 years ago. The poster failed to note that Melbourne started this season with 7 games in Melbourne while in the same time Essendon had already travelled 3 times, so these things even out.

    Just ignore my posts if they annoy. Enjoy the video games tonight.

    Quality post, thanks for your input.

    Just to be sure, I'm only allowed to post here when Melbourne win? Or is it only when Essendon lose?

    Well at least you admit that you support a cheating, drug taking club.

    You finished last and as a result got the softest draw this year. And why did you finish last again? No, nothing to do with the suspensions because of the drugs.

    Dogs and Essendrug got out of jail vs  bottom 4 teams.

    Once again, the MFC has zero luck.

    Yeah I know what you were discussing, and you're entitled to your opinion. I just thought a bit of tact (ie; perhaps saving the partisan defence of the EFC on a MFC forum while we lick our wounds for another time) might be considered. 

    Time and a place, ya know?

    We dont need luck, Losses against North x 2, freo and the hawks have made us need to rely on teams losing. It shouldnt be that way, we have our selves to blame for playing insipid.

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      When the Demons blew their 46-point lead at Marvel Stadium in Round 20 last year, the fallout was enormous. Like an event straight out of a Shakespearean tragedy, Melbourne’s final-quarter collapse left fans reeling and the club grappling with the aftermath.

    • PREGAME: St. Kilda

      With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

    • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

      Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

    • REPORT: Richmond

      Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.
