Wouldn't be surprised if Bevo wasn't coaching next week. He needs to go some kind of spiritual retreat or something. Not be coaching.

    This Bulldog team, despite having a horrible backline, has way too much talent in the midfield and up forward to be this shizen. Bevo needs to go. Or stay. I don’t really care to be honest. 

    But they are not that Talented…

    Bontempelli has talent, everyone else is way below his standards

    Pretty much the whole league is below the Bont's talent

    Incorrect. Bont, Libba and McRae (why is he in the VFL) plus English is an A midfield. Inside 50 they have JUH, Naughton and Weightman. Plus Dale is excellent at half back. 
    They have a list good enough to not lose to Essendon. End of story.

    When have they been in the Top 4?

    You are listening to the Media, who have this elevated opinion of the Footscray Midfield. They are continually wrong 

    The Bulldog Midfield is the epitome of Downhill Skier. 
    look at what we did to them in ‘21. Absolutely Tore them to shreds without a wimper, and what has happened since then?

    Bevo should resign on Monday 

    i would take Bont and JUH

    Naughton is a fraud. 7 years. What a joke

    Most definitely underachieving for the list they have. Bevo has just been there too long. He and the Doggies need a change.

    This situation with Liberatore collapsing towards the end of the game is very interesting. He and the club are claiming it was a tweaked ankle, but the vision clearly shows him being very groggy, and then collapsing into the ground. Parish was clearly concerned about him, as was Duryea. He took 2 hard knocks in the last quarter.

    Surely the independent AFL doctor needs to investigate that.

    Their defense has never been good enough to finish top 4 and that’s the truth. A strong defense can make up for lackluster performances, which every side has during the season. Hell we got destroyed on Thursday night but we still kept our opponent to under 100 points. 
     

    Having said that, they’re good enough to make the 8, but I doubt they will.

    Well that’s the Dogs Finished 

    Beveridge should walk 

    Get JUH at the end of the Season 

    Bevo is a very overated coach! 1 extremely flukey premiership, not a great media performer either, footascray almost cooked!

    There will be a mass exodus from the Dogs if they keep losing this year. 
    This is a Club who lost a home game to Meth Coke last year

    I tried to post this last night but for some reason it was on hold.

    I did t watch one second of the Dogs vDrugs game but seriously when is the blowtorch from the media going to focus on Beveridge and the Footscray “culture”??

    Essendon Fans Blaming Umpires page on FB a bit redundant at the moment. They are getting a Carlton like run.

    Bevo gets off light as so many ex Dogs in the media.

    The defence saved our arzes so often through the middle of the season during 2021 it wasn't funny.

    Didn't realise this. No way he is still coaching if they don't win in 2016.

    I think making the grand final in 21 from 5th papered over the cracks also

    • 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?
