    Choked in front of goal 

    Choked when the heat was on 

    I wish Cox and Maynard both do their ACL next week. Trash thug hack footballers. 

    Grubs. Add diver Ginnivan as well.

    If we simply forced a point for every bomb I50 we would have won by 9 points.

    This is what I feared. The better team undone by it own lack of connection, forward movement, and inspiration.

    Trac was great in the second half  but also part of tge reason we lost the first with 7 touches. Is a perennial  slow starter this year.

    Sparrow not sighted in the first hour finished we'll.

    Viney strangely quiet.

    Could have won but horrible kicking.

    Tmac thanks for tge memories.

    You too Salo.

    Jvr not quite there yet.

    Chandler Laurie ditto.

    Hunter and Langdon just games.

    We still suck in the wet. At least we lost it rather than Collingwood winning it.

    Another game lost through terrible forward craft and goal kicking. It was just like watching the GWS game all over again.

    Lost in the first quarter. For a team coming off 2 insipid finals performances last year to get smashed at the contest like we did in Q1 is just hard to fathom.

    How many teams have done two consecutive straight sets exits? Are we going to add another 'embarrassing record' to our list?

    I’m gutted!  We had our chances and blew them, but gee we showed some ‘ticker’ in the last.  We live to fight another day, and so does the dream!

    Two things:

    - We went with the 2 tall backline which hasn't worked this year.

    - We went with the stagnant, crowded forward line with long balls which hasn't worked this year.

    We reverted to these two things at the worst possible time.

    Lost at selection, lost in game, lost when it mattered.

    Lost brought to you by Goodwin, unfortunately.

    Fritta and TMac looked like 2 guys who haven't played for months. And now we have to go the long way, without Gus or JVR.

    So my big fear came to fruition. We kicked ourselves out of it.

    TMac and Fritta miss montys they'd normally convert and that's the game.

    'Win the big moments' and we didn't.

    I think we've cost us ourselves a shot at the 14th flag.

    3 shots on goal out on the full in the last.  We lost due to player stupidity.

    If Blues beat Sydney we are odds on for a straight sets exit. I honestly cannot believe we couldn't score against them.

    Straight sets to Pies and blues is utter nightmare fuel. Roo presumably will be rubbed out, so we'll be threadbare forward.

    Damn I wish we showed better composure there with a bunch of our shots on goal.

    I'm on board. At least play the bastard. He'd be no worse than Tmac.

    • 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.

      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?
