Casey are ferocious and smashing Essendon at the coal face. They just need to lower their eyes going inside 50. Sound familiar??

    Thanks Tough

    Every senior player should be shown the vision of Keilty lowering his eyes before he delivered inside 50. That is what is missing in our senior side.

    Billy Stretch has two goals and once again is playing well.

    Also he hits stoppages at pace. Something we haven't seen from him at afl level. I think he will make it at afl level as a role player.

    Just curious - does dad Steve get to junior's games?

    Kielty and Baker are worth persisting with IMO. Kielty only one in the whole side to lower his eyes and hit targets and you can tell how Baker moves he could be a good player in time, don’t know much about him though.

    Not a great 2nd quarter.

    C.Wagner BOG, Vince and Baker playing well.

  • Quote

    Baker with 19 possessions at the half.

    Has Jason Taylor aced the draft?  All our draftees are looking great.

    I can't wait to see Oskar gut running down the wing at the 'G. 

    I have really liked the look of Corey Wagner this year. Played purely as a small forward at North. Shows a bit of toe and uses it quite well. Knows how to find it. His lack of size may count against him at the top level.

    Watched most of the 2nd quarter on the TV. The Aerial Bombing obsession is just dum-dum footy. How's a bloke like Garlett to get a glimpse of the ball when this rubbish is persisted with?

    Interesting how a mark to Pedersen which wasn't paid  turned the tide Essendon's way. Pedersen's was much more of a  mark than the one paid to King.

    That's footy, I suppose.

    • 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?
