Brisbane didn't win this. We lost it.

What the actual [censored] was Fritsch doing.

    And that's why Oscar gets criticised


    Fritsch has to know he is leading to his wrong pocket. That's not Hannan's fault.  That's just very poor leading from a forward with a game on the line.  He has a habit of it and more than coaching someone how to kick, you can teach people where to run.

    Threw it away. Why kick the ball so wide to Fritsch.

    Bayley Frietch you are dead set [censored] idiot

    yep that too....what a stupid place to lead to.  Always one step away from being a decent team.  We just dont get it at so many levels and always leave too much to too few against the rated clubs


    We are a dumb team who could be anything if we didn’t make such bad decisions at times. Fritsch [censored] me. 

    Weideman needs some kicking practice

    Two games we’ve had chances to snatch the win at the end and both times poor kicks/decision making have cost us. We are our own worst enemies and this loss and the Cats loss is going to cost us.

    That’s where we finally lost it 

    More the stuffing around further up the wing.  But that kicked needed to be about 20m out from goal to create pressure and contest on the scoring zone.

     

    Was it Fritsch who gave away a stupid 50 like that a couple of weeks ago? I know someone did

    Just lacked a touch of polish. They are a damn good side. We were just a touch off in the second and didn’t take our chances. That’s what you need to do against the better ones. Learn from it an reset for Port. Good to see Gawn, Viney and Trac try and lift them on their backs.

    • 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?
