GAMEDAY: Rd 05 vs Essendon

Featured Replies

Kozzie you fly over and over for high marks & you have never marked one.

Just stay down & crumb

 

Beaten in the air, on the ground, in the ruck, down back. A really poor performance

Hunter needs a week off 

he's running harder than most

by that logic you'd drop oliver, too

Edited by whatwhat say what

 

This quarter alone has been such a let down, I expected a fierce response and it didn't happen.

Problem is we never learn our lessons and drink our own bath water too much.

These players were premiership players only 2 years ago. 

Today they look like the old Melbourne team

 

JJ down over the ball and cleaned up high but apparently the bombers player wanted it more?

Not a single bounce has gone our way. Forget it and move on.

Should have put Gus on the middle earlier in the game when Oliver was being beaten.

Gus was doing the first ever good defensive job of his life down back on Stringer. Tracc, Viney and the other mids had to lift

It's worst than that. It exposes our fwd line issues. Having Max back will help but unless Bbb stars for the rest of the year we are in trouble.

Exposes everything fwd back and mid 

Melksham you are a bloody disgrace. 

This should’ve been a percentage building win against a loser club. Instead we’ve [censored] the bed and no one is putting their hand up to try and stem the tide. This has been a game lost by poor leadership and laziness. Our worst loss since 2019-2020. 


The zero response is deafening.

The whole group needs to have a good look at themselves. Folded like a cheap suit tonight.

Classic Melkdumb, use your preferred foot 

Look it's a bad performance but people need to get a grip.

Collingwood lost to West Coast's seconds last year.

Geelong were 3-2 after 5 rounds and 4-3 after 7 last year.

Richmond similar in 2019.

 

60% inside efficiency for Essendon is disgusting. That is terrible for the best defence in the league.

  • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

    Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

  • PREGAME: St. Kilda

    With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

  • REPORT: Richmond

    Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.

  • POSTGAME: Richmond

    The Dees ran another clinic for the second week in a row as they easily accounted for the Tigers in the lightning interrupted shortened match at Mars Stadium in Ballarat.

  • GAMEDAY: Richmond

    It's Game Day and the 2026 AFL Premiership season is almost upon us as the Demons take to the field for their final practice match before the first ball is kicked in anger in 16 days time. What are you expecting to see from the Dees today as they take on the Tigers at Mars Stadium in Ballarat?
