Essendon haven’t improved.. Langford has improved.. but Essendon are still soft and insipid 

Wouldn't mind Merritt at the Dees

 

Peptides might wanna take the safety belt off

 

Dodoro will re-sign Tippa for another year at this rate


Essendrug have checked out, this is just dull to watch 

The Filth would prefer a tough game

Did the AFL actually schedule this blockbuster, Friday night footy contest, not too long ago.

 

This game needs a kill switch

Am I the only person watching tonight for pretty much the sole reason of hoping Essendon finishes their season with more humiliation?

Maybe some unhinged rough tantrum football from Essendon late in the game to give Collingwood a few suspensions for finals would be good, too.

You’d be happy then Goffy?

Ess have put zero pressure on the pies, letting them run and carry at will, clean and fast. As a result they look far better than they actually are. 

When we beat the pies, the pressure put on them was enormous, they fumbled, poor disposal and heaps of frustration.

That's what we have to bring again in two weeks time

I'm bored

I switched off at half time. 
Dogs on TikTok instead. 
10/10 recommend. 

Must be the same goal umpire from the Carlton game.

This. 
 

As soon as the bombers put some effort into pressuring the pies they crumbled and just booted the ball. 
I’ve said it all season, you put pressure on the pies and if you’re fit enough to do it nearly all game you’ll win. We kick straight that game and we win convincingly. 


Yes BT 1989....

Melbourne played Collingwood in a final in 1989 the last time

You probably played in the game.

Nothing to great from what I've seen from the pies tonight. They have a few out but gee they have a fair few what I'd call average players

Tippa's been a witch's hat tonight

He'll get a Joe the goose to celebrate, no doubt

Joe the Goose?

When Essendon applied 12 minutes of pressure in the second half the Pies looked bog ordinary. 
They would want Moore back and in good shape in finals.

  • REPORT: West Coast

    On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

  • POSTGAME: West Coast

    Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.
