Now it's saying Chandler is our medical sub

Prefer Jones , he has the experience and had asked he can adjust to the pace instantly, also more versatile in terms of the position he can play

    Its funny Ch 7 saying ...."Petracca, is there a better player in the competition"? So much hype...

    I feel like hes still got a heap of improvement to come and hes really just starting to hit his straps now....

    Absolutely pathetic crowd again this week. We will be outnumbered by Swans fans at our own home game. Incredible 

    You would hope not. Christ what more can you ask for this team. I wonder if people thinks it's to hard to come to the footy now with booking tickets & people are still wary about venturing out.

    Light drizzle here at the moment but it may not effect the game as I am in Northern Europe and it is 11am.

    Chandler in as the sub

    Like the cut of the jib of this young fella. Will get his opportunity in due course.

    Time to settle accounts Demons... call in the taxidermist.

    I think it's this, people get their normal reserved seat against the Blues next week I think it will help crowd numbers


    I'm in the MCC & got stuck beside 4 swans fans. Just my luck. 

    But yeah even the members should be out here in force

    There’s a fair amount still streaming in, they were just having a dart and enjoying some hot jam donuts.

    Alright, here, in my seat. For what will be the last time with this stupid ticketing system. Even with a low crowd they make heavy weather of it.

    Go Dees.

    Tough to get a vb in these parts. However I think a glass or two of a good red might go down well.

    You have to give preference to the young blokes, so I’m pleased to see Chandler as sub.

    No win since 2010 @ the G must surely go tonight.


    Kozzie show coming up...

    What's with the socks?

    Good pick up. They are disgusting. 
     

    Should've forced them to wear white. And white shorts. The filth would’ve

    • 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?
