Good to see Howes, Laurie, Windsor and Brown on the field and getting touches early. Nice goal threaded by K Brown on the boundary.

    Jvr has all the elements to get excited about.... including accuracy.


    Roo looks our most likely up forward.

    I like Fritsch and Koz as smalls but will need to find a few more big targets.

    Things looking ominous from a Richmond perspective. Demon mids doing as they like.

    JVR kicks our fourth of the quart...errr....period

    25-1

    K.Brown with a rundown tackle! Hands off to Petracca who kicks his 2nd!

    Schache giving the chop out in the ruck. I much prefer this so JvR isn't exposed to extra risk there.

    Interesting that the goals that seem difficult and the ones he doesn't spend time thinking about are the ones Tracca nails.

    Brown looks lovely up forward.

    Max looks as fit as ever.

    Gee I've missed footy.

    Brown looks like he might be a little pest, I might love it

    Really nice passage of play through the middle with precision handballs - unfortunately ends with a Billing’s mis kick, but great to see

    K Brown looking promising. Love seeing Fritta lay a tackle even if it is high.

    I like Lauies skill and run, but a big question mark for me if he has the body and desire to put on physical pressure.

    Tuned in 10 minutes ago and it's been all Richmond and bombs into our crowded forward line.

    Back line being cut apart on rebound


    Richmond with the last three goals as the first period comes to a close.

    31-19

    The tall defenders are going to be a worry with this run and gun system. Lever has brain farts, May gets nervous under pressure and the Tug Boat can’t move the feet quick enough to evade pressure, nor can he defend.

    Some bad kicking leading to a Richmond goal late 

    Had some incredible passages of play in that qtr but mis kicks in both fwd and def 50 leading to missed opportunities and oppo score 

    Kick it high into the forward line.. nothing’s changed

    • 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.

    • 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?
