GAMEDAY: Rd 05 vs Essendon

Featured Replies

Absolutely embarrassing being around these [censored] Port and Essendon supporters, i had to move otherwise there would have been no more football for me.

Pisssss poor performance.

All on our fortress they have dumped a load on us friggen, disgusting.

Lackadaisical performance, drug cheats hungrier in the contest and cleaner.

He put Petty back in the third. He should have been back half way through the first.

Geez we've been really selfish up front as well

I thought Petty started in defence

 

What a shocker.

Too many learnings.

We stank.

Sorry but it's true.

I can't see this team winning a premiership if I'm honest.

Bbb had better have been injured but I don't think it would have mattered much.

Our newcomer in Grundy was the only player to show some leadership in the first half.

Yep we've played behind all game which is inexcusable but especially in the wet.

Lol Essendon can't do anything wrong atm, best game they'll play all year.

Best game they will play all year.

JJ hasn't done much , I thought he would try his hardest... No one today is willing to work their arses.

Ooops yep yeah you're right

 

Hard to find winner for us.

McVee, Tracc, and Petty's 3rd qtr

Chandler and Viney have worked hard

Surely May is injured 

This has really shown us up. We can either embrace it and change for the better, or just ignorantly paper over the cracks thinking it will all just sort itself out.

Nope just a really really bad day. If he's out there he's good to go. Not copping any injury excuses

This was more Melbourne losing than Essendon winning. We had no run and looked slow from the first bounce. Essendon is extremely mid. Bad loss. Onto next week.

We’ve changed a lot over summer, maybe we just change back to how we played against Sydney?

 


 

their pressure and structure is to focused for us... We havent looked like we have had the right mindset and effort all day.  To top it off it's one of those days where all the bounces and drops seem to fall their way.  Though when you put more effort it, that tends to happen.  I blame listening to the end of the podcast from last week this morning and how we had their measure... jinxed it :( 

 

 

May often struggles when he doesn’t have a big name opponent or a bad full forward to play on. He gets caught between trying to do his duties for the zone and manning up a mobile opponent. When the up field pressure drops off he gets in [censored] spots

  • NON-MFC: Round 02

    The compromised AFL fixture will get another test this week with the first lot of teams getting a bye after only two matches. Despite this Round 2 starts off with two cracking games as the Hawks host the Swans at the G on Thursday Night and then on Friday Night the Crows host the Bulldogs at Adelaide Oval. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • PREVIEW: Fremantle

    The dominant storyline coming out of Round One for Sunday’s clash at Optus Stadium centres on the influence of the big men. The spotlight naturally falls on two elite ruckmen who, five years ago, shared the stage in Melbourne’s memorable premiership triumph.

  • THE STATS FILES: St. Kilda

    As part of the effort to trim the runtime of the regular podcast, we’ve been looking at which segments could be reshaped without losing what makes them valuable. One segment that naturally came into focus was Binman’s Stats Files. Not because it isn’t important; quite the opposite. It’s become such a substantial and much-loved part of the show that it deserves a little room to breathe.

  • 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.

  • POSTGAME: St. Kilda

    Never in doubt!!! In Steven King’s first game at the helm of the Melbourne Football Club, the Dees outlasted Saints in a wild, momentum-swinging thriller at the MCG, running out 13-point winners.
