Salem - continued superlative form

Petty - never imbued confidenceĀ 

Hunt - not Usain Bolt

Langdon - couldnā€™t get involvedĀ 

Jackson - couldnā€™t impose himself

Pickett - hit the wallĀ 

Spargo - schoolboy footballer again

Brayshaw - loose and unaccountableĀ 

Jordan - had little involvementĀ 

Rivers - was rarely sighted

Gawn was not intimidated by Mumford. He was illegally getting smashed by Mumford while 3 umpires stood by and watched. He has every right to demand half the protection the likes of Selwood and Bont get. Heā€™s as good a player!Ā

Agree. Maxy was not intimidated. Ā I watched the whole game and Maxy did whatever he could to lift us. Ā It was not his fault we lost today at all.Ā 

thought harmes tried very hard and played an usual role at half forward had no support and got bagged by his own players when he tried to barrell a goal when the rest of them where just plodding around

AgreeĀ with the Gawn comment .Ever since the Richmond game Maw has been a bit gun -shy ,.As the skipper it is time for him to put on his big boy pants .

Ridiculous.


After reading the '2 minutes hate' version of the 3 word review, I now officially forgive Joeboy for all those time he labelled Tyson 'prolific but wasteful' (even that one time when he was injured).?

Disagreed with Harmes and Max, but mostly on the money.

How did we get Ā so close with so many useless players, Joeboy?

May and Lever.Ā 

A bit generous on Mcdonald. As good as he was, Ā his goal kicking undid all of his good work imo.Ā 

Langdon still got 25 touches too. So I thought he got involved, especially late.Ā 

Also Jordon is spelt Jordon

Wow. What was the margin again?Ā 

And Gawn's a fairy?Ā 

LOL.Ā

Fritta only forward

Mid field pressure?

Around ground pressure?

Forward line pressure?

Anyone else notice a fair bit of bagging between our players when shots were sprayed. Player has a shot and others arms go up complaining you didn't kick to me

Yes I did. Harmes seemed to be copping a fair bit of lip from the players walking off at half time. Lever was the only one who offered him some solace at the time from what I saw. Lever had his arm on Harmes back and was explaining something to him. I have notice a bit of a disconnect between some of our players recently. Not sure what is going on.Ā

Unfortunately Oliver is often very demonstrative when heā€™s not kicked to.. I agree itā€™s not a good look, particularly coming from someone like him who usually only has eyes for Trac at the expense of a better option

Underperformers receiving the passed buck -Ā to diminish their own poor efforts - through disguised credibility to comment in the first place.Ā

  • 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

    Itā€™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 Ā 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 measlyĀ 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?Ā  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.
