Can we keep this below a 60 pt loss?

Petty on one leg. FGS not in the back line, put him forward make bbb rum Tmac back

I know he won us a flag but sometimes it seems Goody is slow to make changes at times.


Give Tracc some Grippo FCS

T-Mac barely sighted after his first goal at about the 5 minute mark

That sums it up. Trac eats those balls for breakfast. Gets done for HTB.

Petty forward anf Tmac back..try something

Way too late. Probably should have addressed the clearance spanking an hour ago I think.

 

Grundy trying hard but boy.... how many times has he found Lion tonight


Ah yes, THAT kick from Grundy. what outstanding intelligence.

Well my prediction proved a little enthusiastic 😂

Mine too 😩😩

Lever and Bowey get a pass - not many others.

Fancy giving that doofus Daniher 4 goals

The same kick every other player of ours has been doing all night, but it's Grundys fault now?

Melbourne's delivery into the 50 had been great tonight.....great at putting it down a Brisbane's defenders throat.

Apart from us playing poorly and lions playing better

we still have a putrid entry into the F50

Sorry we are gone worst loss in 10 years!

So you clearly have forgotten the 2018 PF, just for starters.  Or last year's first loss v Freo

 

 

It's time to bring in JVR for T-Mac and Disco for Tomo me thinks

Wow so many of the comments tonight are way over the top. 2nd game in lost our skip . The lions bought the heat we where not up to tonight but long way to go in the season. People need to get some perspective

 

Don't think so. The perspective is even with Max down we have simply been putrid. Basic skills lacking. Soft tackles . No run. It's been a shocker with maybe 2 or 3 acceptable performances. I eish it were not so but it's the truth. 

This was a grudge match and I know max is a huge out it doesn't excuse this lack of effort from so many.

  • 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?
