No changes 

 

Goodwin has condidence in the team. They should of won last week.

He looked furious at the post game presser.

He and the players know what is expected of them Saturday night 

Sigh. This is our 22 (23 if you include harmes) for the year i think...

Bad news for those of us who want to see chandler, bowey, laurie, jvr...

 

A bit disappointing..

I don't see this side as being one to go deep into the Finals

On paper it's our easiest game

Oh well


I agree - a tad shocked to see no changes 

would’ve thought harmes was a shoe in….probs still comes in if cripps’ appeal of the appeal wins 

I don't have any major issues with 'no change', we didn't lose last week because the team isn't right (as such), we lost because we missed a few we should have slotted (and probably would have most other days). 13-11 is not a terrible day at the office. And the Pies were having a day in front of goal they likely can't replicate, and got the rub of a few frees they shouldn't have. I will add, I'd have liked to see Harmes get a game, maybe at the expense of Jordon who has not looked right, but I guess the faith is being shown in Jordon and the likes of ANB getting the job done. 

I reckon the boys now have additional fire in the belly from the loss to the Pies, and will look to atone bigtime against Carlton. 

On the topic of JVR, what's the point of bringing in someone underdeveloped, who will most likely suffer from the same issues plaguing most forwards in our team - poor delivery/bombs i50 etc. I don't think many forwards would survive with our current approach. If we work on our delivery, we might just find Brown, Fritter and the rest in better positions to score (aside from Gawn - his misses have generally had little to do with delivery). JVR would almost be set up to fail, and there'd be a loud contingent of people calling for his premature exit. Nah, let's get him right, but specially our delivery and approach.

We've got this. Pound for pound, we demolish the Blues. 

Let's just get it done, then tear the Lions a new one.

No harmes, no foul.

Does that mean naked lap around the G?

Will look out for Peter Hichener’s report of the arrest of “binman” pre game at the G.

Didn't think you could post selfies on here.

It's just poor lighting is all

Don't mind

We are all very frustrated about last week but we lost by 8 points to a team on a 10 game streak. Let's back em in to again and get it done right this time.

 

Not that outrageous I guess, should have won last week - this lot should get the job done this week.

Had a look at the facebook comments, saw negative comments about the following being named

Hunt, JJ, Pig, Milkshake, Brown, Nibbler, ANB, Spargo. 

People are angry, it has been too long since our last flag!

  • 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?

  • PREVIEW: Essendon

    As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.

    Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?
