Jack Viney has been immense. 

Love Sparrow's effort but his decision making is sub par.

Langdon and Hunter working hard.

    There better be a big spray at Half time, this has been insipid 

    I'd be giving a spray to the umpires

    Next player with a little 1 meter handball that floats should be beaten with a cricket bat.

    If people thought Steven May is having a bad game then Clayton is playing just as worse this week.

    I just saw a massive jumper hold on Gawn. No call.

    Goody needs to give it to both the players and umps. [censored] the fine.

    Not sure young Jvr is up to the task but I know we have few options.

    Doubt it. Where was the spray when we weee getting towelled by the bombers? 

    My guess is we’ll do more of the same after HT, lose then talk about how this is not our brand of footy. Not us. Etc.

    JVR will make it, delivery to him has been horrible and virtually non-existent

    along with Petty...

    seriously two newbie forwards

    You know the umpiring is absolutely woeful when 100% of the neutrals are saying the same thing

    Petracca and Oliver. Never seen them so ineffective for years.

    JVR is being out-bodied too easily. Needs to get on his bike and move Balta around..

    It seems like we haven't had the momentum at any stage.

    Umps have ensured we haven’t

    I'll take 2 goals down. 

    We haven't played well enough to be any closer. Yet it could be closer: they have had a couple from frees/50s and we effectively had one taken off us (Fritsch mark).

    • 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?
