Our backline needs to man up on their opponents.

Why does Laurie get selected?

Gee we really only have one really effective midfielder and Moore rammed his knee into his kidneys.

Dark days ahead. At least in the Neeld years I had no expectations.

    I’d be looking to move on some value whilst it’s still there. We have good talent coming through in Windsor, Pickett, Howes, Bowey, Rivers and Sparrow. I’d be looking to cash in Petracca. Gawn, Viney and May will slow down. We need to replenish our stocks.

    Keep Petracca, cash in Oliver.

    Nothing to do with it. Sacking coaches is generally a backward step, it's all on the players. Both North and the Suns brought in "star" coaches and the differences are marginal at best. Improvement can only come through the list.

    So who will we pick with pick 4 in the draft. That must have been the shortest dynasty in history.

    You seriously think we can go MORE backward. Am being quite literal.

    No way we are making the 8. Goodwin lost this team weeks ago. Our game style, if you lose the side, it becomes evident. 

    Reminds me of. the Neeld days. Dark days!

    Blow it up, make some hard decisions on the trade table and hit the draft. We're cooked.

    Do we have our first round pick this year?

    Just checked the scores.

    Any chance of a miraculous come from behind win?

    I want to unload on this team. But I’ll hold my tongue. I stopped watching after quarter time and I’m glad I did.

    where was the response? The first 5 mins told me all I needed to know. The season is shot, the window is shut and we will likely be clear dwellers for the next while. 
     

    Id be looking to do a mini reset end of year. Move on players and coaches. Retire a few and look to a new game plan that can flex on contest and ball movement. It’ll take a few years for it take hold and become finals ready. 
     

    All I can say is I’m really disappointed in this club.

    I guess he'll be satisfied only when we become North and win 3 wooden spoons in a row. If you are a serious organisation need to make the hard decisions when necessary, not just wait until it all falls apart.

    I suppose Trac with broken ribs was actually more effective than Billings

    We are playing soft football

    This. 

    Ironically after all the talk from all and sundry that last week's weak effort wasn't acceptable.

    News flash MFC, neither is this.

    Bruise free footy with poor skills thrown in for a laugh.

    The manic play on with errant handballs and a backline that doesn't communicate.

    What a waste of a day watching this tripe.

    As long as Petty gets dropped....oh wait .

    And Maynard hasn't even been tickled.

    Last week was a dark one but today hasn't been much better.

    Perhaps the club won't say anything after today's loss. One can only hope. But they won't. They'll roll out some tripe about something. Spare us please .

    If you can't come out and make a statement against a club that silenced one of our most beloved and best players then forget about anything else.

    2024 season RIP.

    • 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?
