North palyers cleaning up in clearances and free for all up fwd.

WAKE UP MELBOURNE


Everyone keeps saying “once we get going”. When is that going to happen? Because they’re 2 goals up and we are still asleep. 

This is simply embaressing

Well that was borderline embarrassing. 
 

Midfield getting spanked. 

Why do you qualify it with “borderline”?

Based on the quality of the teams we should be six goals up by now.

No doubt.

    No desperation. Even picket then strolled around.

    we are a few mins away from this game being out of our reach. We don’t even look likely to get the ball, or turn it over when they get it. And when we do get it, we look poor moving it.

    will this be the loss we need to have?

    If it is, it’ll be against a club with only 27 players available on their list, no wins, a percentage below 50%, and who are likely the worst team since Fitzroy before they were shifted. Make no mistake, it would be the most appalling loss we could possibly have.

    Pathetic.

    Nobody's running.

    F50 entry (on the few occasions we have found the ball) has been poor.

    Getting smoked

     


    Still no questions about Frittata being dropped behind the play. 
    Such biased commentary

    So far this is a clear example of not respecting your opponent. Nothing comes easy in this league.

    Petracca is the only one showing the urgency required.

    Said this last week and I'll say it again. 'Would love a centre clearance!'

    For a good midfield oir clearances have been bad for a very long time.

    Looks like they used all their fire power on Richmond last week.

    • 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.
