    from the AFL site... need on say more about the gameplan

    The 33 points currently scored by Essendon is more than it has scored in the first half of either game this season

    PS... make that 40

    Edited by Diamond_Jim

    Another soft as [censored] free kick. It seems pre-determined.

     

    Im done.

    [censored] you melbourne!!!! 

    Your goal Fritsch you [censored] idiot

    Good Lord. We are cooked.


    for any other coach this start to the year would be sackable.

    This is [censored] putrid.

    Dees are [censored] at footy again and all is right with the world. It was nice fellas…for about 4 weeks.

    Yep. But irrelevant. This list should be doing better. It's not effort. 

     

    Goodwin, looking at you. Judging you on performance

    Maybe still a paid sleeper for them ;) lol

    Dees stinking it up....again.

    2018 obviously an aberration....

    We have resumed normal programming.

     

    I'm predicting that I'll be going to bed at half time.

    Rubbish. We are a [censored] disgrace. Welcome to the good old Melbourne. 


    Okay I'm [censored] [censored]. How do we let a team who has scored 100 points in two rounds kick 40 on us in a [censored] quarter. 

    I want to see Goodwin, jones, viney and leaders get angry, none of this calm approach, its not working.  They need a kick up the backside to play footy, go 1;1 and put pressure on.

    Don’t blame the umpires. Remember Goodwin no excuses. This is a club issue the same it has been for half a century. There is something just inherently wrong with the culture of the club.

    Fixed ;)

    Very early days in the match and the season- but we are in real trouble.

    • 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.

      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?

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.

      Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?
