    Bring on 3rd v 4th next week. 
    Nibbler did plenty of tough work, 11 tackles is a fair effort.

    Grundy needs to settle down or he'll take the Brownlow off Clarry !

    That performance was a bee's you know what from being a much bigger smashing. Can't complain with the start we've had, and I was particularly happy with McVee, Sparrow, Viney, and Rivers - not to mention Brodie Grundy who is such a luxury to have with Max out.

    Good win. Scrappy kind of game in many parts. A shocking display of umpiring (again makes a mockery of our professional game). Everyone contributed. Go Dees.

    I'll definitely take that. West Coast made us play an absolute scrapfest in the first half but in the end our class and fitness got us over the line.

    It was great to see Tmac find some form and Trac get back to his goal-kicking best. I'm also loving the look of Mcvee at the moment. You wouldn't have thought it was only his fourth game if you watched him play closely.

    Good solid all round performance, nice to see others given more midfield time.

    Bring on the Scum next week.

    Judd McVie is shaping as my new favourite player. So clean. Salem has significant competition for his spot

    Salem should take Bowey’s spot IMO.

    Trac really lifted in the second half. 12 possessions, 2 contested, no tackles and 1 clearance in the first half.

    29 possessions, 8 contested, 4 tackles, 3 clearances and 3 goals by full time.

    Edit: 448 metres gained too thank you very much.

    For all the whining about the umpires (not entirely unjustified), we won the free kick count 22 to 16.

    Umpiring was terrible both ways.

    Grundy slowly hitting vintage AA form. Imagine Pies fans watching that.

    • 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.

      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?
