Highest scoring quarter of any team so far this year. And it hadda be Geelong. 😑

Against Hawthorn, just need to take it with a huge grain of salt.

    Instead of rebuilding from the ground up Sam Mitchell has decided to add a basement first.

    Yep and that that 3rd quarter out and they would have lost.

    This Hawthorn team is worse than any Melbourne team under Neeld or Bailey. They have zero stars. The blokes they brought it, like Frost, Impey and Wingard are all C graders. They may have some young talent, but in my opinion they are headed the same route as the Dees circa 2009-2014. They are really really bad. Funny to hear Hodge still backing his mate Mitchell, but I reckon he will be gone in two years.

    Geez Hawkins has free licence to shove opponents with both hands square in the back.

    I guess it's better than his usual form.

    Is reckless contact with an umpire still reportable?  Of course there will be the Geelong exemption

    I still feel sorry for Todd Curley after all these years having his career pretty much end with the umpire contact suspension.

    No way, we had Terlich and Matt Jones up the top of our best and fairest.

    The Hawks drop off in the second half was alarming. I genuinely thought they were a chance to win the game at halftime. They will have to show much more fortitude if they are to win many more games this season.

    The fade off was a total joke. There have been more disappointing performances this round than good ones and Hawthorn were pathetic.

    At least West Coast fought hard and were tackling and working to move the footy right to the end. Hawthorn just stopped playing. Sam Mitchell has NFI. 

     

    In other news, no Nenkurvis for Richmond either in two weeks time.

    • 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?
