I've never heard a club hide behind injuries as much as we did last season. What's their excuse going to be in 2020?

Bereft, soul-destroying...................fraudulent

 

melbourne..........

They must bite the bullet and sack Goodwin fancy getting a coach from Essendon they have done nothing for 20 years.

 

We stink, plain and simple. 1 step forward 5 steps back. Hard work carefully building that house of cards and then Port come and flick it all over. I've had it

Ha Richardson ... the reason we don’t want to sack Goodwin mid-season. 


Legitimately seen a couple of our guys fully [censored] themselves at the physical contact today. If we hadn't already set the lowest of low standards then tonight might have been the all time worst!

Richo doing the interview.... 

 

Has goody been sacked already?! 

Mahoney should also be in the firing line, has always had a free pass despite doing [censored] like paying 2 first rounders for OMac 2.0 while letting Howe walk out the door.

Wow, Adelaide have a game to look forward to.

Has a winless team ever started favourite?

I hope not cos I'm loading up on them. Spewing I didn't take port over 40 for $7


Oliver and Brayshaw can go at years end.. one cant kick, one can’t chase

Trading a first rounder for koz was a mistake too

This is pointless, kicking goals now.  It'll just take the heat off.

Lose big with pride you cowards.

I disagree with you on your view that "this is pointless". And also with your notion of losing big with pride - that's repugnant to me. Until the final siren sounds it's never over. We're still a chance to win (no matter how slim). Melbourne to win by a point (to prove a point - hopefully :) ) I'm up for every goal the Dee's can kick - always - goals win games...

This is exactly the issue, we have to win contested ball to win the game. Every other club has different methods. Embarrassing.

 

It's not necessarily about different methods, but it is about how dependent we are on CPs/clearances.

If we can't dominate in the middle, everything else falls apart.


This is worse than 186 I expected them to be reasonable tonight. Petracca is the only one that has had a go, the rest have been disgusting.

Goodwin needs to do a course on how to at least behave like a coach. What rubbish, 'play with your heads held high....'what a muppet....

We can dream

I truly believed we’d bottomed our a few weeks back. Surely the noise can’t be ignored any more. You have to try your guts out week after week to win in this competition. Is that noise?

Getting COVID would be more fun than watching this.

It would not. I’m all for cracking jokes about this club and this game but when someone you know is fighting for life from this virus, this [censored] pales in comparison.

  • 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?

  • PREVIEW: Essendon

    As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.
