Viney murdered that stoppage and then almost pinged inside 50. 

Got sucked in when we already had one at the ball and then got done on the outside. Dumb play.

Vanders. I’ve never loved a player more who can’t kick to save himself.

    Can’t take our foot off, Collingwood won’t roll over. 

    Rain by half time. Need to get 4 or 5 goals up this quarter.

    Why? It should’ve been paid holding the ball.

    Vanders is a beast


    Victim of Vanders the steamroller.

    Sort these centre clearances out and Vanders tough as nails.

    Jesus. Hope he’s ok. Looks awful. 
    Vanders is a god damn machine. 

    Why isn’t that vanders’ free?

    front on contact. 

    doesn’t deserve to be knocked out but the rule is there to avoid these instances

    Feel for the Pies player - head hits Vander's elbow then first part of body to contact the ground.  Hope he pulls up okay.

    I guess that’s why Vanders is in the team. 

    Mihicheck won’t come back on. 

    Yep fantastic endeavour

    Is Joel Smith injured? Surely he'd do a better job up front than 2020 Tmac.

    Now THAT is why we have Vanders in the team. Impact personified.

    • 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?
