So the powers that be maybe have decided that Melkshams ongoing lack of tackle is analagous to playing a deep full forward and having a three headed monster in Tmac, LJ and BBB. 

Wow that's a tall forward line - not quite WCE tall but still v. tall.  Granted BBB plays more as a leading forward. 

Excited to see how this affects the balance.

    Hopefully there are zero rakes in the forward 50 or this could be trouble!

    Weather forecast turning sour. Rain and strong winds possible Sunday afternoon.  Having 3 talls could backfire on us. North will relish it. Havent Sportsbet heard of Bass Strait and Tasmanian weather.

    I bet alot of money is going on North this week. Poor weather and sympathetic umps might keep them in the game.

    So much for sunny and 22.

    Should have moved the game to Marvel.

    TBH the main reason I'm glad he's playing for us is that he isn't playing for North.

    Sometimes, in my darkest moments, I get flashbacks to North surging forward with Brown one out with OMac in the goal square.

    We can finally watch us play that mob without the crippling and entirely rational fear that he's going to kick 10 goals on us.

    From the forecast I just read, medium chance of showers (0-1mm) and 15/20km winds. Not too bad I would’ve thought.

    You need to fight against your MFCSS Siam. A changing weather forecast is not going to derail.

    And in case you hadn't noticed, North are terrible.

    As per other posts, weather is looking Ok on 3 forecast sites including BOM.

    20 degrees , slight chance of a shower, cloudy with some sun,, winds 15-20 km/hr in the morning but lightening winds  in afternoon.

    I'd be confident that there is hardly any money being bet on North this week.

    If at  the  G or Marvel i wouldnt waste 10 cents on North.

    But its down inTassie. North always lift against us. First quarter should be telling either way. Fine weather and we will win.

    Good luck BBB - you will need to perform as others are waiting for your spot !

    I reckon Norf won't even score over 40 this week. It will be around a 100 point victory this week no one wants to give up there spot.

    Hoping its a bend over no lube type operation.

    Yep...North are terrible alright but so are Melb against North in Tassie.

    Melb now have a much better team but im not overly  confident . If Melb win by 3 goals iD take it now.

    The line is 57.5 points or something ridiculous if anyone was taking North it would be that not H2H

    • 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?
