GAMEDAY: Rd 05 vs Essendon

Featured Replies

Everyone complaining about Kayo. Pay a bit extra a month for Foxtel. Better value and a better overall football experience.

Anyway, Essendon got 4 goals either directly from free kicks or from free kicks up the ground. Most probably there but debateable given they weren't called both ways.

They are targeting our backline because of no Lever, pretty obvious.

Their strings of possesion were very concerning. Especially given they aren't a very fast team.

Draper tearing us up is giving me an aneurysm. If Stringer gets involved next, I'll vomit.

 

We have a few worries but are only a only eight points down. The resting ruckman for Essendon is causing problems isolating Tomlinson.

When van Roo rucks we're getting thrashed in the middle.

Petty's form and now injury is a big concern.

TMac looks off.

McVee probably needs to use the first option.

Brayshaw doing very well.

Clarry only two possessions at quarter time. Unprecedented!

When your ruckman has more possessions than your best mids they’re a problem!

Essendon played out of their skin, hopefully we grind them down and run away with it in the second half.

 

We look lazy and entitled at times.

They are getting a lot of momentum from free kicks (most of them are deserved but hard to maintain that over 4 quarters)

Our stars and match winners need to lift.

Good news is that they can’t play much better and we have much we can improve on. Not losing to those cheats in Adelaide. 

Exactly, they can't keep scoring from centre clearance surely

Spargo, trac, Chandler & bowey  need to get into the game 

Bowey is not impacting games that much this year.

 

Shocking choice there Chandler.

 

Great grab and goal Melks!

Nicely done Jakey boy! 

Say what you want he's definitely good for a big play.

It’s a lot more money. Money we can’t afford. I can barley justify $30 for Kayo. 

Melksham kicking a bag against the Bombers would make a win that bit more special.

Him and Trac need to really lift. Not good enough. 

Wasn't sure about Melksham but boy was I wrong.

I had Kayo for a month and then got rid of it. Pathetic service

Oliver having a mare. What is happening?

Petty stinking it up too. Not good enough. 

Grundy not on the line, he really runs his own race

Setterfield did a number on him at Carlton last year too I think. 

Can't rely on the back 6 today, need to win the midfield battle

  • REPORT: St. Kilda

    One of the big stories of the AFL off-season was the spending spree of Melbourne’s Round 1 opponent, St Kilda. They splashed out heavily, first to retain Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera - the hero of last year’s epic come-from-behind miracle victory -turning him into a $2 million man. They then effectively took out an expensive overdraft to recruit a string of expensive players from other clubs. It was a risky investment strategy and, although it’s still early days, it certainly failed to pay off in Sunday’s season opener, with much of the glitter turning to fool’s gold.
