Before this game I thought "Hipwood's just gonna destroy us."

Midway through the 3rd I though "Nah we've done alright."

Hipwood's just destroyed us.

 

[censored] hell Goodwin! You recruited May to play on the big forwards and yet you stick a 4th gamer on him

Atrocious coaching

I’m going to give Gawn a break. Oliver has also been horrible. Dumb handballs, unaccountable, now two way running. 

Our midfield needs an absolute rocket. The worst performance I’ve seen from them all year, which says a lot. 

Spot on. Again with the exception of Gawn, all have been absolutely shizen

    Gus another great example there of playing on at the worst time with NOBODY forward of himself to give off to.  Didnt even assess.  Just manically decided im going to play on no matter what.

    Goody??

    All he had to do was hold up for a couple of seconds and he had a player inside 50 with a paddock to lead in to. Plays on without looking and turns it over. So frustrating, they just have no composure whatsoever

    [censored] off Goodwin. What a hack coach!

    You're happy to write that about Goodwin but oh no Oscar McDonald is off limits?


    Oliver and Brayshaw given a football lesson today. Harmes has played a tagging role but has had little support.

    Why Was Petty still on Hipwood at the start of the fourth. [censored] I'm over Goodwin.

    That pretty much sums up Goody.  I was over him after Rnd 5.

    Team is devoid of skills and poise/polish.  Just the usual crash bash rubbish.

    Goodwin always expects his luck to turn. It takes him far too long to change things up. I don't like saying it, but his gambling addiction mentality hurts us. He's a great assistant and clubman, but senior coach, no.


    There must be some Gold Coast bikies who have threatened the umpires. 

    Well at least I don't have read the trippers on here talking about our finals aspirations anymore.


    Wow Smith.  I can see really why they call you Bull, the way you always compete.

    Tim Smith isn’t afl standard. Time to [censored] him off and bring Pruess in as a tall option and take some pressure off Gawn.

    • 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?
