It’s like we put money on the tigers.  We dominated and yet missed so many easy shots.

    Everytime Neal Bullen gets it he turns it over.

    His worst game for a long time. Only upside from here.

    Bad kicking is bad football.

    Time to reset and grind out four points.

    Will be interesting to see what Weid does this second half. No Pressure.

    Fritta needs to get on his bike. Vloustin is his opponent and is destroying him and us. 
    Trac also really quiet.

    I’m done with Weid. Move his [censored] to the dead pocket and tell him to play up and down that flank only.

    Park BBB in the square and have the smalls rove off him

    Agree. Intensity, intent, all good. We just buggered up 10 easy shots at goal and it blew the wind right out of us when they go inside 50 once and goal immediately. 
    Bad kicking is bad football. It’s honestly inexcusable for top quality players to miss these shots and once the rot starts it’s hard to stop because it becomes mental.

    It shows you the importance of goalkicking.  Players are professional and train or play 6 days a week but in general goalkicking is getting worse!!!

    Nathan Buckley’s trying to argue that Richmond have forced this scenario. He’s completely ignoring our inaccuracy. That’s the game right there. Appalling commentary from someone who should know better.

    • 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.

      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?
