That is actually crazy! Wonder how many after the siren shots to win we have missed over the years? It was only last year Weid missed against Adelaide for one.

Melbourne have lost 6 after the siren though

Yep 2005 round 21 vs Bulldogs.

Leoncelli in 2001 Vs Adelaide was probably a second left on the clock.

And that Leoncelli goal came about thanks to one of the all time great ruck 'punches' from The Ox!

Yeah I reckon the McKenna thing might work in our favour to a degree. Essendon May have beaten us a month or two ago but they are rooted now

Agreed. I think they AFL had tried to be dramatic and made it the last game of the year as it could have potentially been a game for the last spot in the 8. They'll be 15th by the time we get to them

Love watching the bombers crumble.

Doggies and Saints the next 2 weeks will not be easy games. Doggies looked good today.

Weid missing after the siren against the Crows last year in the NT.

 

 

Not to nit pick but that wasn’t after the siren. Much like Big Max vs Cats in the 2018 it was essentially the last kick of the game.

Watching Channel 7 cover this Essendon game proves how biased the media coverage of the AFL is. If Melbourne, the Saints, North or the Dogs has delivered up a spineless half like that they would be (rightly) nailed to the cross. Instead they keep trying to barrack for them to come back into the contest.

Hoping for a small win to the Saints.  Will keep their %'age in check.

%'age doesn't matter for Ess as they have the draw to protect their position unless they in a battle with Coll to make the 8!

I just walked in to the Saints v Bum holes.  Ess kicked the ball back and forth like they were protecting a lead.  I was surprised to see them 20 point behind half way through the third.  They turned it over for a goal.  Absolute rabble

Jeff White is probably the closest we have had. I thought the old Smokers Stand was going to collapse that night. 
Everybody went nuts!!

The last 2 St Kilda goals should be enough to tip Bruce out of the Bombers’ canoe.

Essendon are garbage.

They've got Hawthorn, us, and the top 4 in their remaining fixture. 

The would have to improve tenfold to make the finals from here with that fixture.

St Kilda, the Dogs, GWS, Collingwood and us are battling for the three spots at 5-8. St Kilda the clear frontrunner given they'll be 8-4 after today, but they still have to play us, Brisbane, West Coast and GWS.

Carlton a smoky to challenge.

What a boring game of football Ess v StK was. Chip kick the ball 25 times around your back half, then kick it down field only to have it marked by your opposition. Rinse and repeat.

Three goals each in a half of footy.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
