This Collingwood documentary is really interesting. 

Cant wait to hear more stories about the 58 premiership in the next qtr

 

Umps are horrible but Jesus we are atrocious. No skills. No game plan. Soft. Just rubbish. 
Clearly learnt nothing from last week.

Another undisciplined act. Pure stupidity. We have learnt nothing.

I'd like to say that we need to see a replay to determine how stupid it was, but Vanders shouldn't even put the umps in a position to reverse it.  Just talk some trash and leave it at that.

So glad we dropped Oscar. Backline is getting destroyed. 

Again with a balance-disrupting selection error.

 

Nothing positive about that quarter at all.

Getting smoked by this umpire.

What just happened?

AVB blatant shove of player on the ground to taunt them for giving away free - it was stupid 

AVB must be concussed from earlier head clash

Umpiring has been terrible, but we haven't been great either. The crows have been a lot more direct with their F50 entries, and as usual we are just bombing it in. Mind you, this is against a team who is, as of right now, winless in 2020.

I'm torn. I would have loved us to come out firing, and belt these guys, but that wouldn't mean anything, because it would prove us to be only able to win against the easybeats. 

But as it stands, we've been pretty bog ordinary tonight so far.

Didn't think you could pay a free kick after the siren... [censored] umpiring getting flogged there 

You can't. Yellow carntes

Have i ever mentioned I don't think we are very good kicks of the football?


King “good call by the umpire, this is the stuff we need to get out of the game”.

Vanders pushes a Crows player in the back when we was on the ground after the free had been given as a “[censored] you”.

Well we are not looking very good against the worst side in the competitions Reserves side. Who is getting their hands on the ball?

Can we try something different when kicking out after a behind? No creativity or dare whatsoever - might as well just give them the ball back

This umpiring is un [censored] believable

Agree, continues to be inconsistent and terrible.

But i don't blame the umpires overall. We are just soft.

Mate don't worry about it. We're going no where


 

I wonder if they will pay soft [censored] free kicks like that all night... Doubt it

  • 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?
