Absolutely [censored] disgraceful half of football. No skill, no awareness and so vanilla. Structurally putrid. Any danger of a stay at home forward. What the [censored] is Bailey Fritsch doing taking marks at centre half back.

    At the game. Gotta be some kind of record for kicking to the oppo. Just never seen anything like it. It’s literally like they’re trying to do it. Can’t possibly continue, can it?!!!!

    It's pretty bad. I'm trying to be positive but this is Richmond.

    The cats will be watching this and smiling.

    Ooooooft yeah, we cannot play like this against Geelong or we’ll lose by 50 easy. 
     

    We look tired or something. It’s weird. There’s no zip in the legs across the ground.

    Relax people, like a cat swatting a mouse. Yes the skill errors are weird but it’s actually well in control. Big credit to Howes for holding Bolton for so long, got off the leash for a hot minute there but a 3rd quarter onslaught coming

    That is the worst half of kicking turnovers I have seen from MFC ever.

    Kamikaze corridor mis kicks! These kicks are killing us. Basically keep handing the ball back to them but when they are in space and in their corridor! 

    Guts from Fritta .

    I'm sorry but I don't think it's unfair to say ...This is the worst we have played for a long time.

    We have gone from being a top four contender to playing like a bottom four one.

    It's a big concern. We do look asleep. ( Again).

    Its not as if we are a poor team but if you watched us for the first time this year.....

    What are we doing prior to the game?

    It's pretty difficult to explain.

    Someone said it was a slop fest and it is but I want to know why 

    Last week we said fatigue. This week it will be the bye 

    But there is something wrong.

    Trac, Viney and May not showing any leadership.

    Yze has put together a game plan against us & it's working.

    He knows how our players operate & being around Melbourne knows he we can also crumble

    Has anyone ever seen so many turnovers?  Kicks DIRECT to opposition players.  
    Eyesight? Jumper clash? (didn’t happen way back when covered in mud). 
    Execution WILL kill us today and for the season.   


    Been feeling this for a while but tonight it has come to a head......we are so f$#@ing boring to watch.

    Just what I was thinking. It’s almost funny.

    We've given them a huge sniff.

    No excuses re three matches in thirteen tonight.

    This is as bad as we've played since the 2019 horror show.

    We are a risk to lose tonight, honestly we deserve it. Did these premiership coaches actually prepared this group for tonight? Or did they think we would just win by default? 🤢🤢🤢

    All going to plan, folks. 

    I wouldn’t be surprised if we do eke out a win here and yes they’ve thrown everything at us but if we were as good as we’re supposed to be we should be able to control the ball under pressure instead of turn it over in dangerous positions time after time. 

    Decision making has been atrocious.

     Loose players not spotted. Pretty ugly from up here.

    May, Rivers, Lever, Gawn in our top 5 disposals. Hello midfield

    It's the turnovers under next to no pressure that are killing us. Beating ourselves right now

    Don’t worry, this is made for the super sub Bailey to come in and look like a million dollars. 

    Windsor kicked two perfect passes to tigers. Petty and Oliver a bit disappointing. 
    Thank god for May, Lever, Gawn and ANB.

    I am sick and tired of Goodwin letting this happen over and over. Where's the physical and mental prep for these games?

    • 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.
