We’ve taken the mantle of chokers. 
 

How embarrassing. 

 

Arc score review gifts carlton another one. They can't win on their own merit. the whole thing is rigged. 

Change the thread name it's post season.

We only have ourselves to blame. 9 goal 17 point again. I love Gawn but his kicking and not just for goal" is woeful.

This game was not lost at selection. We had kicked more points than they had scoring shots with 2 mins to go in the last. Grundy, Schache or anyone else would have made [censored] all difference.

Cannot agree. MacDonald wasn't working. Schache should have had a run 30 minutes earlier

Wasting our list and our window. 

We are the biggest head mess of a club. 

Can’t wait for the learnings. 

Window is shut I'm afraid. May ain't getting any younger and he's our best player.


How many times is Goodwin going to lose important games at selection.

Not that it matters, cos we would have been thumped next week anyway, as will Carlton, but these last 2 games were the biggest choke I’ve ever seen in 5 decades. The way we kept kicking behinds just kept writing the perfect script for Carlton, who were frankly dreadful in the last half. Should have won that by 6 goals. Get ready for the ‘choke’ tag, fellow supporters. 

Yep, it's coming and deserved who needs the Colliwobbles when there's Melchoke.

Disgraceful waste of a season. Pickett’s poor discipline has cost us big time - what a joke he gets 800k per year. I never want to see TMac play in the senior side ever again. Get a new forward line coach ASAP. We are mentally soft and deserve to be called chokers.

Not having any talk about us being overrated.. we are the best side in it, should have won last week.

So is Max going to say it was a Melbourne like loss? 🤢🤢🤢

I dont know a team that has lost both finals back to back. Heads needs to roll for this.


It's hard to tell when your at the game but wasn't there numerous dubious freekicks paid?? Really feel rough. Glad the seasons over (who am I kidding I'll be back next year)

Some odd selections but he didn’t miss all those kicks. Those were missed by the guys who should be kicking those.

9 Goals. 17 Behinds.

I've got nothing else to say otherwise I'll cop a ban.

That's pathetic from professionals.

You forgot the out on the fulls.

Gawn and Viney dumb sheet errors in the dying minutes. Oliver brutally wasteful,again.

Just put it in the context that while he had a poor finals series, Jack Viney carried us for a large portion of the season.

Gawn was best on field last week and played his heart out tonight.

There were a heap more reasons we lost tonight before you point the finger at the two hardest players in our club.

Pull your head in.


Wayward kicking is bad an can happen but what is unforgivable is dumb 50m penalties, free kick reversals when having a shot for goal, giving away free kicks by slinging the opponent into the fence. We have too many dumb and undisciplined players!

The AFL is corrupt. How many frees did that f*ing no 22 pay against us and then not give us?

We are the only one mate, another embarrassing record.

 

We were robbed, and we robbed ourselves with poor kicking. Too many Outs and a combined losing margin of 8 points across 2 finals games... we are a great side with bad luck this year.

What can you do?

Just now, Garbo said:

Would have smashed us the lions.

But to lose like thus again.

No wonder we don't get big crowds.

No wonder it's been 57 years.

How can we kick so poorly all night.

Credit to Carlton for accuracy and smashing the centre clearances.

And a big fu to the umpires who smashed the fire count I the last and ignored some blatant ones.

Couldn't do it for Gus. Shame on this team.

Rack off Grundy.

  • 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?

  • PREVIEW: Essendon

    As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.
