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.

  • PODCAST: Gold Coast

    I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.

  • GAMEDAY: Gold Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons are back at the MCG and have a massive challenge ahead of them as they take on Premiership contender the Gold Coast Suns. What do you want to see from the Dees today?

  • PREVIEW: Gold Coast

    Melbourne’s slow starts have been a troubling theme for a while. Against the Suns, they started slowly in both of their games, they trailed by 5.7.37 to 0.1.1 at quarter time at Peoples First Stadium in Round 16. This season, the story has remained the same and if the Demons fail to shake off this issue against the unbeaten Gold Coast Suns, they will be in serious danger of capitulating once again in their Easter Sunday showdown.
