    That fat [censored] Mummy getting pantsed by Gawn so, true to form, starts going for the cheap dog shots behind play. 
    God I can’t stand this manufactured, soulless garbage club.

    Am loving this but fighting back feelings of last 2 game dissappointments.

    Pickett is playing well.

     


    So that mumford thuggish cnut takes Carrie's head off and the corrupt maggot umpire plucks a free from between his stinkcheeks to Greene? WTF?

    Very good start from us, bar a few of the usual turnovers.

    What was really pleasing was the fact that we transitioned the ball well from defence and made them pay on the scoreboard.  Pickett was dangerous and I've liked Baker's efforts on the opposite wing to Langdon, who is also playing well.

    Been pleased with our tall backs as well.  They haven't given their talls a sniff.

    - What a goal by Trac!

    - BS 50 against Lever

    - Generally excellent, great creative movement. The boys look hungry, but...

    - WHERE THE HELL HAS THIS EFFORT AND INTENSITY BEEN!?!

    No free to Greene. We got the free and Gawn turned it over immediately.

    It's good bit you just shake your head and think "where was this the last two games"

    Just a lack of game awareness by Max. He should have known there were 30 seconds to go. Pump it deep and maybe get a cheeky one.

    When you look at who the poster is that is driving that discussion, it makes some sense.

    No it doesn't coz he was the first D'lander to get hot on him early in the draft.  Gone cold for some reason.  I was the 2nd lol.

     

    Good start. At times excellent start.

    Gawn's late turnover was terrible. No game awareness and a bad option to boot. But he's creating so much through the middle. Mumford's a [censored].

    Let's hope we can keep this up. 5 goal quarters and 3 goal leads early are nice things.

    That's the bit that hangs over this game.  I mean, it's great to see us playing well, but why can't we do this in the previous two games?  In both we came out listless and uninspired.  Tonight we look like a Top 8 team.  It's frustrating to say the least.

    • NON-MFC: Round 06

      The Easter Round kicks off in style with a Thursday night showdown between Brisbane and Collingwood, as both sides look to solidify their spots inside the Top 4 early in the season. Good Friday brings a double-header, with Carlton out to claim consecutive wins when they face the struggling Kangaroos, while later that night the Eagles host the Bombers in Perth, still chasing their first victory of the year. Saturday features another marquee clash as the resurgent Crows look to rebound from back-to-back losses against a formidable GWS outfit. That evening, all eyes will be on Marvel Stadium where Damien Hardwick returns to face his old side—the Tigers—coaching the Suns at a ground he's never hidden his disdain for. Sunday offers two crucial contests where the prize is keeping touch with the Top 8. First, Sydney and Port Adelaide go head-to-head, followed by a fierce battle between the Bulldogs and the Saints. Then, Easter Monday delivers the traditional clash between two bitter rivals, both desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top end of the ladder. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • 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.
