    Yeah we’re garbage. They are going coast to coast with total ease.


    Frustrating to watch. We are playing dumb footy.

    Were max's 2 behinds he missed easy shots that he should have kicked? I wonder if he has that voice in his head that gives him no confidence 

     

    Any chance of hogan marking one?

    Every single week I have said it:

    You have to start questioning Goodwin.

    Three goals this quarter coming from deep in our attack.

    Can’t see us winning any games with this coaching group 

    Every time the ball goes to Hogan it comes back.

    Clog the [censored] corridor. Stop this high press [censored]. Hell revert to flooding or man on man. We will beat no one on current form and gameplan and it’s a pathetic waste of a talented list at present.

    I’m furious at how [censored] this team is playing this year. This is a top 4-6 underperforming massively. Disgusting.

    I am very very close to walking from this club, not to another but away from the sport. I can not do another rebuild under another coach. 

    It’s only eight scoring shots to nine. We are not putting any scoring pressure which makes players out their heads down 

    Spargo showing everyone else how it's done

    Gawn would be a good one to go to for us…if he could kick.

    Yes im afraid he now has a permanent yip.  Now we have pretty much no one who is a reliable kick outside of Melk or Kent on a good day.

    No front and square play or forward pressure from any of our forwards other than Spargo in his first game.

    11 inside 50s for 1.3  this quarter ... can't hit a target coming inside 50 and can't kick a goal to save ourselves.

    Spargo the only one scoring in his first game.... horrible

    This is meaningless, pointless, total lacking in identify, structure, urgency.

    There is no clear objective. A first gamer is schooling our forwards on how to position himself and win the ball.

    This is a team bereft of confidence.

    They are trying to operate under a structure and with a system that is complete rubbish.

    We all know that the talent isn't this bad.

    No wonder our skills and decision making is poor.

    Makes me sick to watch this. 

    Pathetic. 

    9 scoring shots to 8.

    When will the forward coaches teach goalkicking??

    Season over if it wasn’t already, we are a bottom 4 side with no 1st round pick, life is peachy

    • NON-MFC: Round 06

      The Easter Round kicks off in style with a Thursday night showdown between Brisbane and Collingwood, as both sides look to solidify their spots inside the Top 4 early in the season. Good Friday brings a double-header, with Carlton out to claim consecutive wins when they face the struggling Kangaroos, while later that night the Eagles host the Bombers in Perth, still chasing their first victory of the year. Saturday features another marquee clash as the resurgent Crows look to rebound from back-to-back losses against a formidable GWS outfit. That evening, all eyes will be on Marvel Stadium where Damien Hardwick returns to face his old side—the Tigers—coaching the Suns at a ground he's never hidden his disdain for. Sunday offers two crucial contests where the prize is keeping touch with the Top 8. First, Sydney and Port Adelaide go head-to-head, followed by a fierce battle between the Bulldogs and the Saints. Then, Easter Monday delivers the traditional clash between two bitter rivals, both desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top end of the ladder. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Essendon

      What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

    • 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.
