    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. 
     

    I'm calling Garry Baker as we speak.

    Seeing if we can work something out.

    Not really surprised. The FD has thrown the gauntlet down and said "just get it done!" Expect changes next week if they can't.

    Let’s hope if Gawn is forward more that he fixes his goal kicking. 

    Not much point in having him there to kick points.

    What an exaggeration. I spotted Maysie kicking to the right at training this week.

    I suspect Goody was only left with two options, throw the gauntlet down or draw a line in the sand.

    Dude is not going to fix his kicking within a week, nor the remaining ones. 

    He needs a pre-season and a good tutor. 

    His golden patch of shots-on-goal this time last year was 20% technique, 80% Vibe-Gods. 

    The technique was always poor.

    Well it seems the one tall forward set up ( with Max dropping in) is considered viable for September!

    I don't like it but .................... Go Dees !!!!!

    Crazy to think Max can play that role for the rest of the year especially with his wayward kicking.

    Maybe not nearly as many ppl as you think are ‘calling for his head.’ 

    PS: I should hope the MFC admin are huge Hunty fans. Just as I hope they’re huge fans of all of our players.

    20 premiership players. We did it last year, we can do it again. 

    just need a major change in form and attacking flair 

    changing fringe players won’t make us 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.

    • 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?
