    Remember when this thread was started roughly 15 hours ago... and it was at minimum a comfortable 4 goal win.

    FMD...

    The concern for me is killer teams come out with the same intensity every SINGLE week.

    Our performances against bottom teams proves we dont.

    Ergo....we are not a killer team.

    We are arrogant...lazy or complacent.

    Goody should start dragging players to stop this garbage.

     

    If you think we arent trying hard? surely you can see we are  

    the hawks have beaten the swans and giants recently. No easy games in AFL

    we will get up. Have faith

    At this stage they are just cleaner and more desperate.  We are the reverse.  O can't find one player who's been clean and damaging with ball in hand tonight. 

    Fumble fumble fumble constantly handing it back and second to the ball aside from Maxy and Lever.

    Wow. With one of the best lists we have ever had, and we simply won't show any intensity. Getting flogged around the ball, jogging around, and getting annihilated at half forward.

    Hawthorn kicking 8.0 since quarter time is [censored] embarrassment.

    Don't let anybody fool you with talk of spirit and underdogs or any other crap.

    THE HAWKS ARE A VERY BAD TEAM.

    I know we've been winning the important games this year (and that's great) but we will never be truly feared until we bury these teams.

    If Clarksin was coaching us he would never put up with this rubbish.  They are a disgrace, pathetic front runners

    If we lose tonight we’d have the bizarre record of no losses agains the top 8 but losing to 3 of the bottom 4.

    Surely the only explanation is mental.

    Any chance we can hit a leading target inside 50 or on the Arc???

    This is pathetic. This effort is [censored] pathetic. Players should forfeit their match payments tonight regardless of the result.

    The hawks are a rubbish side that are being made to look like world beaters by us. Again we are showing a complete lack of respect for our opponents. Our worst football this year has come against the worst sides. it’s very disappointing

    I just dont think our effort is anywhere near last weeks game and my point was we struggle agsinst bottom sides while cats smash them. Its a fair comment.

    • 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?
