POSTGAME: Rd 03 vs. Essendon

Featured Replies

Immediately after the game Gawn was on Twitter. The club's leadership and cultural issues persist. 

 

At least we kept Daniher quiet.

It's not often we get a POSTGAME thread before the GAMEDAY thread...

We are living in strange times....

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?

One correction, Conor McKenna was one of the positives.

Good to see Bennell got through another week and Vanders didn’t break his foot for a change.

I thought some of the outer fringe shows at the Comedy Festival were appallingly unfunny, this topic takes the top spot

Perhaps this is an attempted joke. Who knows.

But saty your relentless bagging of fellow posters, individually and collectively is becoming exhausting. 

The great irony is that you bag posters for their supposed negativity. Ironic because it reflects a seeming complete lack of self awareness given how negative you so often are of late.

I know I can put you on ignore (I have done so previously). But i'd rather not. I don't put many people on ignore.

 You are a long term poster that has contributed a lot of good content and positive energy. Your training reports are a good example of that.

It would be great, in these somewhat dispiriting times for some more of that positive energy.

Scratch match at the G curious to see what that tells us...


The players weren't switched on at all. It's as if they were somewhere else.

Has been let to get away with it for far too long.

Moderators need to have a serious private discussion with him on whether he just needs to think about just slowly stepping away from the forum for good. 

It's becoming very tiresome when every thread is hijacked by his constant negative criticism on posters who are trying to have a fair old footy discussion.

Someone's starts a thread taking the [censored] out of the current situation and he comes in to give it a wack.

I've spoken to old demonland posters on bigfooty who are no longer member purely on the fact they got sick and tired of the constant negative criticism from him.

Let's not lose any more good people thanks @Demonland

McKenna killed us. No-one went near him !!!!

I am positive he did not get a kick or a serious touch.....

AFL going to screw us for something that’s not our fault. Will need to play an extra match later, whether it’s 3 in a fortnight or dedicated round when the other teams get a rest.

Honestly do we care in this year that could still crash around our ears? I am caring less every week.

A season of practice matches,  going nowhere but development.  Lets do It.   And continue Dee-veloping our youngs.

  • PREVIEW: Fremantle

    The dominant storyline coming out of Round One for Saturday Night’s clash at Optus Stadium centres on the influence of the big men. The spotlight naturally falls on two elite ruckmen who, five years ago, shared the stage in Melbourne’s memorable premiership triumph.

  • NON-MFC: Round 02

    The compromised AFL fixture will get another test this week with the first lot of teams getting a bye after only two matches. Despite this Round 2 starts off with two cracking games as the Hawks host the Swans at the G on Thursday Night and then on Friday Night the Crows host the Bulldogs at Adelaide Oval. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • THE STATS FILES: St. Kilda

    As part of the effort to trim the runtime of the regular podcast, we’ve been looking at which segments could be reshaped without losing what makes them valuable. One segment that naturally came into focus was Binman’s Stats Files. Not because it isn’t important; quite the opposite. It’s become such a substantial and much-loved part of the show that it deserves a little room to breathe.

  • PREGAME: Fremantle

    After a stunning victory over the Saints in the first round of the Season the Demons head over to Perth to take on the Dockers who choked in their first match against the Cats. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • REPORT: St. Kilda

    One of the big stories of the AFL off-season was the spending spree of Melbourne’s Round 1 opponent, St Kilda. They splashed out heavily, first to retain Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera - the hero of last year’s epic come-from-behind miracle victory -turning him into a $2 million man. They then effectively took out an expensive overdraft to recruit a string of expensive players from other clubs. It was a risky investment strategy and, although it’s still early days, it certainly failed to pay off in Sunday’s season opener, with much of the glitter turning to fool’s gold.

  • POSTGAME: St. Kilda

    Never in doubt!!! In Steven King’s first game at the helm of the Melbourne Football Club, the Dees outlasted Saints in a wild, momentum-swinging thriller at the MCG, running out 13-point winners.
