This is over umpiring.

But we are slow.

Again.

Our mids worry me.

Our poor stoppage work this year is going to cost us another flag. It's supposed to be our strength, but it's become our weakness. Need our inside mids and Gawn to wake up asap. Need Mcqualter to get to work with them

Two words, one paced.


Chasing shadows at the moment.

Ours mid no where near it.

 

Far out we are overreacting even for a game day thread.

We have 135 minutes. relax 

WC were always going to come out hard at home after last week. 

see it out. head down. we’ll be fine

We're getting a lesson in competitiveness from a team so bad they're on track for another priority pick. This is embarrassing.


Poor first quarter again, same as last week

If Lever is done for the game hard to see us winning this

If the difference between winning and loosing vs eagles is lever then we aren’t a good team to start with 

Is Oliver being tagged? Looks a shadow of himself

They used to pay the free for impeding the player who is the start of a chain. Kozzie missed out. 

God, 7 scoring shots to 2. 11 inside 50’s to 4. 
 

Any chance we could play somewhat aggressively?

 


Kossie playing well. only one get hands on the ball around stoppages for us

  • 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?
