    Be pretty damn annoyed.

    We're playing for top 2 and a loss here may very well cost us top 2 considering we play Geelong at Geelong which is our hardest game on the run home.

    Incidentally Hawks are $7 to win. In our 3 losses, the oppo was around the $4.50 - $5.00 mark. Therefore it would be a next level upset if we lose this one.

    NOT look at the post-match thread.

    I've recently done this and it felt like that first really cold beer on a hot day. Highly recommend.

    not be surprised. the pattern of the last couple of months is to beat the top teams and lose to the poor teams - especially after beating a top team the week before

    but surely we deserve one game for the year where we smash a team by 70 points??

    Shake my head a few times, take a few deep breaths (meditate if I need to), give my traditional excoriation of the performance on Demonland, and then move onto focusing on next week's game.

    Yet again Jaded says what many of us are thinking. Well, me anyways.

    No need. I think I'm already that little voice in your head telling you to not get ahead of yourself. Objective complete.

    • 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?
