Who cares about choking and head-space and all that crap.  Today it was all about what was inside the chest cavities of our 22 warriors  that counted the most when it was required.  You bloody beauty!!

    The strength we showed when they took the lead is precisely what we have failed to do this year. And against the 2nd placed side on the road, in the heat. 

    A fantastic win.

    So many times Goodwin goes on about learning, and taking opportunities to grow, etc. etc.  Not just hot air, and we saw today what it means.

    More than anything, what impressed me today was that for the first time we started to show what we've so often sorely missed: maturity.

    Awesome.  When we were behind, we shut it down, won the contest and won the game.  We even knew how to ice it.  Lessons learned and demonstrated

    My wife and her sister are shaving their head next week for cancer, she has raised a bit of money with her sister  to honour the loss of their Mum 20 years ago. It’s happening next Sunday. I was missing the Giants game to be with them, I have just had an argument to which the last comment my wife said was lYou are going to the game, this conversation is over. Over!”

    I love my wife.

    Boy, how much did we miss Melksham last week?  4 goals when the pressure was on was immense.  I love him.

    Even though he faded a little, Weideman gave us a glimpse of what he can give us in the future.  Good hands, mobile and, when he gets his kicking right, he'll slot more than his fair share of goals.

    Bring on GWS, let's smash them back to Sydney and then take on all comers in September!

    • 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?
