    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

    • 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.
