Kozzys form a real worry. just not on his game at all.

Since signing his contract extension he’s been poor. If it wasn’t for his potential you’d drop him.

 

Petracca should be banned from going for goal at this point. It’s actually comical. 


0-4.
Surprise, surprise.

Well ankle is better than foot. No doubt about that. 

True. Pauline is adamant it’s his ankle. I told her the Club are reporting it’s his foot. She said it depends on who you talk to from the Club. She spoke to Fritta himself. 


Trac needs to dish it off. His goal kicking just hopeless today

Petracca's definitely not going to die wondering if he can kick goals - he'll know he can't.


Tracc could be a worthy Brownlow medalist IF HE COULD KICK!

Bowsers a belter. His quick step and composure is fantastic.

the HTB tackle followed up by a great delivery. much better kozzy

On another note, Himmelberg isn’t worth 400k let alone the 800-900k being reported in the media. Absolutely bog average third tall at either end.

blatant push in the back on Maxy missed by the umps

yr like a broken record

we clear about $800k as a result of selling the game to nt - it's one of our biggest sponsorships

no nt govt, no yze, no choco, no burgess into selywn, etc. etc

Yep because I reckon it stinks.

We have 65k members and a recent flag. If a club can’t turn that into a replacement sponsor then I’d be asking very hard questions of the sponsorship department.

It made sense circa 2011-20. That we still do it with so much to play for is frankly a disgrace.

  • 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?
