Max jumped forward over the mark.

Very dubious.

 

Missing Sam Weideman. Structure/roles looking very different, and Tim Smith not really giving us much/anything for the moment.

    OH dear God we look like an average football side. Hopefully the quarter time break allows us to hit the reset button.

     

    Gee we love conceding a goal on the siren.


    Also, this is a classic Carlton game.  They flood the contest and flood our forward line because they know how bad they are.  They are fantastic at bringing the opposition down to their shitty level.  

    We just need to keep at it and put the pressure on and they'll fold.  God I hate Carlton.

    Carlton are so bad.  They are doing nothing but going the man after every contest and finding cheap goals.  We are 4 times the side they are.  We just need to settle and put it on the scoreboard.  They won't go with us for 4 quarters.

    The 50m decision was absolute rubbish and what Max did is what every player does each time they're on the mark.  Outrageous decision.

    Would’ve touched it if he didn’t jump forward anyway. Jumped over the mark, it’s 50. 

    Cant say am overly impressed. 

     

    That Jed Lamb is a [censored]

    Easy, he jumped over the mark, not matter if the siren is gone, he can’t jump forward.

    Cheers - very unclear from directly behind him. At least that makes sense now, I thought it was paid in the fracas


    We will go to work in the 3rd. Keep the faith. Viney and Petracca to lead the charge.

    Welcome back Jack! 

    If that doesn't lift the boys, nothing will!

     

    I like that Vince is going the man a lot because it's a win win. He his them legal and it hurts them. He hits them high and we don't have to worry about carrying Vince in our side anymore.

    • 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.

    • 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?
