This is the sort of [censored] that makes you really angry. A guy taking a 70m run without anyone getting near him. 

We are so slow. This really is season over stuff. 

Mitch Duncan is fast we are lazy 

I was thinking we we might have a drop off this year, but right now we don’t look like a top 8 team at all. 


As I have been saying all week , this team has some serious problems.

Teams get out the back far too easily.

They have 30 more contested possessions.

It's time to stop looking at him as a number 2 draft pick. He was rated the second best kid 4 years ago. It means diddily squat now. 

 

Then we drop him. He’s in the team on potential, not output. Either he gets involved and has an impact, or we drop him.

    This is Mark Need-esque. Your move Goodwin

    bit hard to have an impact when yr tethered to the forward 50 and the ball never gets there

    [censored] I hate having to play in Geelong.

    has been an ongoing thing that all footballing ability disappears somewhere approximately halfway down the [censored] Geelong highway.


    do they do an iq test at mfc dumb players

    Agree, obviously isn’t doing enough during pre-season. Happy to coast on his talent

    Well done Milkshake

    Wow some of you people sound like some of the people who said we were done early last year! Relax a little and enjoy that we are playing with no organization what so ever and Geelong are near their best and they are only 25 in front

    @McQueen....tell us more about that fishing rod.

    Shimano Terez 40-80 lb spin rod. Coupled it with a Saragosa 10000 spooled with 50lb power pro braid. 

    I’ll post a photo of the first fish it catches next weekend.

    This Club does not learn. It’s still too hard to go up a notch and stay there. 

    This season is quickly falling apart, we cannot score...

    • 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?
