    OLIVER ZERO CONTESTED POSSESSIONS IN A HALF OF FOOTY

    VINEY WITH ONE

    WHAT HAS HAPPENED TO THIS MIDFIELD?!

    Petty not one touch.

    can't retain possession at all, this is neeld era sort of bad. 


    I blame umpire 22 for this. 

    Wish sportsbet would declare this information before placing a bet on a game with him umpiring.

    Can someone in this club stand up and tell us exactly what the hell is going on in Alice Springs? 🤬

    I cannot remember the last time I felt genuinely embarrassed watching us play. It’s been years.

    Game over & it's only half time.

    Feel for the demon fans who forked out money to fly to Alice Springs & pay to attend this game

    We haven't been able to

    • Win the ball on the inside 
    • win the ball on the outside 
    • defend ball movement 
    • defend slow entries 
    • move the ball
    • turn the ball over
    • effectively lay tackles 
    • win contested marks 

    and much more. 

    hard to name a single thing that's been AFL standard in this first half

    It is shaping up as an ugly pasting, so disappointing. The Dees really need some drastic changes at HT.

    However, if there is one team that could blow it from here, it is Freo.

    You could argue melksham also but that’s not going to change much.

    Sick of this club selling home games, for what? This result says it all. 

    If you genuinely think the ground is the problem, you are just making excuses for what is a putrid lack of effort.

    Petty and Turner, our two key forwards, with only one possession each in the half.

    • 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?
