    3rd Q we are kicking to the goal scoring end and our 3rd Q's have been good

     

     


    2.4 to 0.6 that quarter. Bloody wasteful. If we lose tonight, it won't be because we weren't the better team on the night.

    Calm

    Breathe

    Calm

    Storm weathered ;)

     

    This is our quarter, take the game by the neck and strangle the c**t.

    2.2.14 to 0.6.6 that quarter; they only out scored us by 8 points...

    Which will hurt all the more.

    Ok, positive post now.... we are still smashing them and kept them to 16 points in the half. Their middle tier players next to useless... 

    Gawn not dominating, can and has to lift in the second half....

    Shocking miss by Neale Bullen started the rot in my opinion.

    That was a shocker. Kick that and I reckon we kick the next 2 purely from momentum.

    C'mon Dees!!!!

    he most definitely is.

    Just wasteful. Gus and Tyson need to lift.

    Keep the pedal down Dees.

    They're garbage. Hit the chris sullivan line this quarter and get it done.

    Goodwin will settle them and straighten them up.  Its just been a fumble inside 50 that has stopped us having set shots.  As long as we keep the pressure up we will win as they will break.

    Dissappointing but we lost the qrt by ourselves and at least were not outplayed.

    need some quick goals early on   get back to the smash and grab   hit hard and fast    cmon dees  just do this

    Unfortunately happens too much against Geelong

    I think that's what frustrating. Outplaying them but not converting. Been a consistent story this season. Hopefully it isn't our undoing tonight.

    We are killing them but if we don't start scoring then, mark my words, this will come down to the wire.

    • 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.
