There’s more than one giant head, Jontee. 😁❤️💙

 

With all the pontification about a 100 point drubbing - forgetting Naarm are playing an AFL side - has anyone thrown their play station controller and rage quit yet?

    Great show. Did you see that ludicrous display last night?

    What was Goodwin thinking sending May to Goldstein ?

    This game, like this ground, is trash. 
    Let’s get the 4 points, avoid injuries and move the hell on to bigger and more important things. 

    How did you gain access to Goody's whiteboard notes?

    But we're not 10,000 points up at quarter time against the bottom side! Lazy players don't care! Waaaa!

    Ignoring the fact that a team with nothing to lose are always going to give their absolute all. We don't need to smash them in the first quarter.

    Yep. If I was a North supporter I’d be happy with that quarter. They put in. I said it last week that there are no bad teams, only teams that can’t sustain effort and North are one of them. There’s still plenty of time for the lapse to come and for us to skip away.

    Q1.  
    Nth bringing pressure and effort. 
    Dees not quite on point. 
    Fritsch tackle was great stuff. 
    Evens in clearances. 
    Dees goalkicking is not quite as sharp as it needs to be.

    More of an xbox guy


    As much as we talk about poor forward connection, that was perfect forward connection between Brown and Rivers.

    Brown led back to the square gesturing to Rivers where he wanted it (20 out on the far pocket, a hard kick but Rivers can get there). He then led to where he wanted it, and Rivers put it there. Brown grabbed the mark as it was put to his advantage.

    Too bad about the kick for goal from Brown, but that was forward 50 gold.

    • 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?
