That's all the tweets they've uploaded so far.

Did mention towards the end that they don't expect to see Ben Brown play some sort of footy until about round 7.

James Jordon also most likely to debut this weekend.

DD36 thanks for all this, don’t get to listen to G and T,  

does Max get help from , the coach or other ex captains,  or instructors who guide him through the early years of captaincy. 
Not many AFL players are rocket scientists indeed some are barely articulate. They can play great footy perhaps but that does not automatically lead to the responsibility of leading a group of  players. 
I know personally I can barely lead a horse to water.

Hope the club provides some sort of structure for him.

Come on Demons only a couple more sleeps

and happy equinox. Couple of days yet

But... But ....426 !!??

Well that would ensure there will be an injury in Q4 or earlier if the coach wants to pull an underperforming player.   Doesn't Goodwin have enough to think about now without having to have another decision option.


Very uninspiring TBH!! Hopefully his pre-game speeches have a better effect on the players?

Who have been our rucking captains? Big Carl? Don Cordner. One of those two, probably Carl in this instance, could surely demonstrate some of the finer points of intimidation to Big Maxy?

At least if Goody is on radio we don't have to watch his left hand scratching his left leg.

We will be lucky to get 5 games out of him.  Hes cooked.

This is just your MFCSS talking - I expect him to provide a target and allow out excellent midfield a more reliable option than they have had. If you want to make it easier on yourself by having subterranean expectations go for it - but reality does not promise such a pathetic return.

Reality says his knee is a mess.

Reality is you have no way of knowing and you can't resist making the most negative comments whenever you get half a chance.

Reckon we will get more out of Ben Brown in 5 games than T-Mac in 18

Correction... YOUR reality says his knee is a mess.  The removal of debris would suggest that the cause of his knee swelling has most likely been addressed.

Can see the leg scratching even in a radio interview. Hope the players are more invested in him than I am.

 In the meantime next tv interview we should play the leg scratch drinking game

  • 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?
