POSTGAME: Rd 03 vs. Essendon

Positives:

No turnovers.

Backline kept the opposition scoreless.  May and Lever anchored us well.

Hussle around the packs and pressure from the mids and forwards didn't allow them to touch the ball at all.

Bombers are absolute knobs.

Negatives:

Conor McKenna.

We didn't score.

We struggled again with that mid forward connection and couldn't get the ball inside 50 once.

Tom McDonald to cop it again this week after not clunking a single mark.

Thoughts?

    The votes will be interesting this week.

    With the back line keeping them scoreless, you would think votes will go there.  Lever a standout.

    The problem is that we’re now behind the eight ball as far as our preparation for our next game is concerned. No compensation for that and later in the season we’re going to potentially have a crowded fixture.

    The impact on our preparation from last week to next week is unavoidable, there's nothing the AFL can do about that. We're not going to get "compensated" - we're unlikely to be the only side to cop this, and even if we are, it's a preferable alternative to having no season at all.

    If there are no other tests (unlikely, but let's run with it), then I guess the hope would be that we play Essendon at the end of the season prior to finals: that way both sides come off the same shorter break.

    Just check most of the other threads.  I'm sure you'll find one in there.

    Don't worry Clint Bizkit will provide the negatives re the coaching and who we didn't draft/let go. never fails

    Goodwin still can’t coach. No improvement at all compared to last week. It was like he wasn’t even there!

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      From the outset, the Casey Demons lacked any spring in their steps. They were out-hustled and out-bustled and finally outplayed by the Brisbane Lions by 38 points on their home turf in perfect conditions at Casey Fields.

      It's Game Day and the Demons return to the MCG after a dismal performance in Gather Round to face the reigning dual Premiers Brisbane. What do expect to see from the Dees today?

    • PREVIEW: Brisbane

      They really had me fooled when I picked them with great confidence to beat the Bombers at Gather Round last week. I should have recognised that nothing is more quintessentially Melbourne than defeating the undefeated early premiership favourite one week and losing to a winless cellar dweller on its way to establishing a record losing streak the next.
