Is that the same foot he had trouble with early in the season?

 

Harmes looks like he’s running in mud. Way off it at the moment.

 

Can't afford to give those away on a day like today and gws leading.

Same one as before?

If trac could finish off his opportunities he’d be running away with the Brownlow, his conversion has regressed in a serious way. 

Jesus wept, our kicking

it’s core business - why is this so hard

we’re last in goal accuracy - last

going to cost more games and maybe a top 4


We are hard to watch -  lots of effort but so dumb and wasteful….    Why so many talls on a day like this….  Why hasn’t trac improved his loopy high ball drop??

Seems a top of foot injury to Fritta. Vision on TV.

Doers not look good.

Done for the season?

And Petraca misses another one 


The gameplan:

 

1. Get an entry to a 1 on 1.

2. Ball gets to ground

3. Opposition has players waiting, Melbourne forwards second to contest

4. Stoppage or Melbourne shot on goal (and subsequent behind)

5. Opposition eventually gets possession end-to-end to an open forward line

6. Repeat

  • 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?
