We looked spent at the end of that quarter.

So did they


Harmes gave them momentum. 

Seriously dumb footballer. He literally had to kick it in front of Melksham and completely missed him by 20m.

Not all concerned about them to be honest. 

It's a tough call bw who is Better....Lever or Petty.

 

This game is far from over. Harmes shocking kick resulted in a 2 goal turnaround. Seriously how do you [censored] that kick that bad. 


And dogs getting their usual number of frees.

Lever probably better at intercepting, Petty better 1v1

Petty definitely better with ball in hand

Say what you want about Melk. The man knows how to kick a football.

And throw a punch.

Relax we have this easily Dd.

Great to be up at half time but this isn’t our usual style of play and I reckon Goody would be having a stern word to them at half time. Need to lock down the corridor to stop the momentum swings and control the game.

 

Lots of positives, but Salem still a concern.

Great to see Sparrow having a decent game, he was pretty ropey last week.

We are seeing a different game tonight. Faster ball movement  creates scoring opportunities but we are being exposed a lot on the turnover.

  • 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?
