Surely no team can come back from 4 and a bit goals down with just 7 minutes left

I see what you're doing there! They can

    JUH to the Eagles is my guess

    They will land a very big one in the next two years

    Dogs can't go anywhere with their defence

    Naughton makes more sense as a WA.

    But isn't Brad Scott the greatest coach since Chris Scott? This isn't making sense.

    When JB said that I said don't compare Essendons players to our players. Then I remembered they actually beat us

    Essendon are putrid. Their midfield is full of small bodies, they get monstered. Stringer is fat. Won’t make finals.

    Channel 7 already protecting the twin, they are a WIP and Essendon fans should feel hopeful 🤢🤢

    Stringer and Darcy as ruck, the fattest duo in the guts.

    Now back to the cricket and see what the Aussies can do

    Good start to the weekend with them losing. 

    Weightman just took a mark with 3 Essendon defenders around him & not one went near him

    Bont is a great player. But when he dropped an easy chest mark which resulted in an Essendon goal, the commentators said nothing. Even when it was replayed. No such treatment for Libba when a handball was intercepted and similarly resulted in a goal.

    What's happened to shepherding? Seems to be a long forgotten skill. 

    I hope that JVR follows JUH's rate of improvement. He's a star.

    I wish we'd recruited Peter Wright.

    Stringer ... lol

    I don't like Weightman much, but he's a pretty good player. 

    I was going to say that Essendon were a pretty ordinary side, but they're worse than that.

    Might head over to the Essendon Bigfooty forum for some light reading.

    • REPORT: Adelaide

      The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.

    • CASEY: Coburg

      The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

    • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

      After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
