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.

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.

    • PREVIEW: North Melbourne

      Can you believe it? After a long period of years over which Melbourne has dominated in matches against North Melbourne, the Demons are looking down the barrel at two defeats at the hands of the Kangaroos in the same season. And if that eventuates, it will come hot on the heels of an identical result against the Gold Coast Suns. How have the might fallen? There is a slight difference in that North Melbourne are not yet in the same place as Gold Coast. Like Melbourne, they are currently situated in the lower half of the ladder and though they did achieve a significant upset when the teams met earlier in the season, their subsequent form has been equally unimpressive and inconsistent.

    • 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.
