Off topic considering the tone of the thread, but thoughts on Sparrow to half time?  Thought he's looked alright and has a bit of dash about him.  I think he is worth persisting with going forward.

I have liked his input so far.

Tough little nugget too.

 

If ANB is getting suspended, tell him to over and belt that little sniper McHenry.  Has been going at Gawn all game.

By the way cue the person telling us to chill out and we're 5 points up etc 

 

First play of the second half Brayshaw overruns the ball and Adelaide send it forward

Adelaide supporters booing poor umpiring decisions is a bit rich. 

But not surprising in the slightest.


Langdon really doesn't like kicking goals.

Lever has the stitching imprinted on his chest

Langdon cannot buy a goal. 

Cannot kick either.

The muppets probably think it's coming from the Melbourne supporters at the game, and subsequently rewarding the Crows for it


HOw can you miss

So they've replaced his heart, but not his brain. Great.

Yeah, "Dermie what would you.do facing this young fella Jackson in the ruck right now. Well I'd lead with the knee and make him earn it."

 

Oh let’s look after the players... flo gs

Brayshaw devoid of confidence at the moment. 4 touches at 25% at half time. 

Bennell has offered nothing.

 

Can someone please tell me roughly where / what role Bennel is playing?  

Hard to tell from side on viewing.

I would play Tomlinson down back to replace Lever.  Allow Lever to place the loose role that he loves.

Bring Harmes to the Tomlinson wing and rotate him with Bennel.

What is ANB bringing to the table,  if anything, so far?  AVB is also a worry.

Jones has to play HF in small bursts off the bench or not at all.  His kicking inside 50 or anywhere higher up the field is atrocious.

Where do you hide Melk****e?   Time to go unless he kicks 2 or 3 in this 2nd half.

Tracc into the middle with Clarry & Gus.  Gus needs a rocket from SG.  Perform or you wont be back for a while, if ever mate.

Viney to go forward for Melk rotating with Chunk (off the bench...nowhere else fcs)

  • 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?
