Where is May playing?

 

Bomb it into the Forward line then let them short pass and walk it all the way to their 50. Play on no one. Repeat.

    Brown. Throws x 2. Good grief. 

    Yeah first one he never had possession so it’s a tap not a throw and the second one he had a closed fist so also not a throw

    Disposal is absolutely [censored]. 

    Port look far more balanced and dangerous going forward.

    In thr absence of Oliver none of Petracca Sparrow and Harmes have showed they will stand up. In fact all 3 have been ordinary.

    We are bog ordinary. North and Hawks should’ve beat us early this year. This is our level. Sad because we have a great list

    Just when u give a guy a bad rap he plays well.

    Stupid of Gawn. Should've looked for a team mate in a better position. 


    Aren’t we looking ordinary today. Nothing unexpected though.

    I’ve stuck up for Fritsch but it’s definitely a trend now. He has to be dropped

    an early team goal in play can lift the whole group. But he deflated us even more

    • 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?
