Clarry petulant -  need to just concentrate on ball in clearances.

Fritsh -  needs to lead harder and faster and get physical

Sparrow -  2 touches...... lift son! 

TMac -  get some separation and create space for orhers.

Umpires  -  Jesus wept....

    Nibbler is nigh on our best so far. 
    need to get the ballin Salem’s hands more this half and FFS open the f50 up.


    Jetta needs to contribute more. Especially tackling.

    Langdon is super reliable and good signs from Gus.

    Putting this here for future reference.

    If history is any indication.
    GWS coming off 2 losses with 2 players down.
    They'll get us.
    'Cause that's how we roll.

    Also if Max is going to play forward (since his kicking suspect anyway) why not having him play as a decoy. Lead to pockets to create space for others to lead into. He has to do more.

    One of my biggest worries right now is that the team will assume it will just happen with GWS down so many players. If I was one of the coaches I would challenge the players to show us we would’ve beaten them even if we were the ones down of rotations. 

    This quarter is big, we power on here then I can see us running away with it. If they keep it close and scrappy then they are a big chance to have a “season defining” win.

    ANB has had a good season. He still lacks composure under pressure though and a lot of his touches are kick and pray.

    We have our defence sorted. Most of the 2nd Q the Giants couldn’t get past half way. 

    Davis and Cognilio done. 

    we should grind out a win fairly easily. 


    Fritsch the Cat again!


    Couple of observations.

    That blonde umpire has ruined the game.

    Gus and Jacko playing well.

    Forward line is not looking flash.

    GWS are excellent defensively.

    +1 on the blonde #22 umpire. He’s no good. 

     

    Langdon and Hunt run out of defense when it happens is so good.

      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?

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.

      Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?
