Hipwood smashed and caught red hot but still plays for the free throwing his head around and rolling his eyes after at the ump as if he's unlucky.

Have to say i really dislike Brissy.

    If it's not going to be us then GWS all the way. You only have to look at the alternatives in Geelong, Sydney, Carlton, Collingwood.

    GWS would be far more tolerable as premiers. Then we should pick off some of their talented youngsters.

    How do we pick off their youngsters??? They’d stay for sure. So much talent.

    Makes the loss even more painful to bare. The only other team they have beaten is Norf. It’s not good company to keep for the time being.

    Hope that some combination of money, home factor, senior opportunities will shake someone loose. Most likely they'll wrap up their superstars but there is so much talent on that list playing in the ressies.

    The one rider I’ll put on Brisbane is that they have had a relatively brutal fixture. 

    GWS, Geelong, Carlton, Collingwood, us, Fremantle (away), North.

    Their next month is GC, Adel, Rich, Haw. If they can’t go 3-1 or 4-0, then I’ll be happy to say they’re done.

    If not us then giants best option to win flag. They have no supporters so won’t have to deal with any gloating 

    This is the reality. Same with the Suns. No one cares if they win a flag unless you're playing them in the GF

    How predictable the whole “how did we lose to [insert name of team who were just thumped]? They’re absolutely sch!tt and yet they beat us!” thing is. Extremely predictable and extremely tiresome.

    What a redundant comment to make in general, but especially when it was the Giants and not North Melbourne or WCE who belted the Lions.

    I hate it almost as much as I hate this old chestnut (to be said in your sternest voice while wagging your finger): “I hope you’re watching this, Goodwin. You could learn a thing or two.”

    Mods, we really need an eye roll reaction.

    We got owned by Brisvegas for 4 Quarters, but you call it an overreaction. 
    Did you actually watch tonight’s game?

    I never called it an overreaction. I’m calling it a useless reaction.

    Yes I did watch tonight’s game. Not sure what difference that makes but then I’m not the one posing the useless questions.

    It’s called attitude. I don’t consider it a useless reaction

    One of the beauties of AFL is how much form can fluctuate dramatically from week to week. I suspect it is the physical nature of the game but that probably doesn't explain everything. Brisbane thrashed us for three quarters last week... at the MCG. GWS, who look to be the most talented side in the comp, thrashed the Lions. Teams will lose games they are expected to win and win games they are expected to lose.

    It all sorts itself out in the last week of September.

    Everything they tried against us worked. Even the ball ran for them. Average players played the game of their careers. Even Hipwood impressed (briefly) before fading back into irrelevance in the second half.

    Even without considering our lead-in work load, it was just one of those games. 
     

    Let it go.

    Goodwin is not fond of watching when our team gets belted. Remember how he didn't review the 2018 PF against West Coast.

    Yeah but they have to live in western Sydney!

    Give them a bell in early January when that big compressed heatsink of roads, industrial estates and black rooves turns it into a 50c oven

    Thanks all for your comments/concerns (?).

    My name is actually St John (pronounced Sin-gen) Lascelles Mustafa Nguyen-Smith III. If I was playing AFL, I'm not sure that the commentators would call me by my full name.

    Interestingly, I recall Neal-Bullen being called Bullen. It's the opposite of the abhorent behaviour which I have been calling out.  

    PS. Don't think this is over !!!

    It's a long season "SWYL'...don't get too hung up on one game.

    Agree with this if we can't be there on GF day.

    The thought of GWS beating Carlton or Collingwood by 1 point on GF day is a bit good.

    The city will be a ghost town as it was after the 2018 GF.

    • 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?
