Giants didn’t turn up in the first Q

now it’s a real arm wrestle

bring it on

are we good enough!

I'd bring Turner on for Bowey in the second half.  He's a mile off this defensively and far too slow to move the ball on.  No penetration in his kicking when he does

    Rivers... 2 disposals this quarter

    GWS showing up

    Thrown away a solid lead.

    Billings, Nibbler and Kozzie are lost out there.

    Oliver our best but can't do it alone 

    How the [censored] wasn’t the first a free to Roo let alone the second when he was tackled with out it. [censored]

    Better if Kozz dishes this.  Too far out


    It's a real shame you can't rely on a 4 quarter performance from Melbourne anymore.

    I wonder if the players are flat because there is no atmosphere. 

    I know they started well but seriously it's  pretty quiet here

    Killing us with numbers around the ball. Working harder than us. Not sure why we’ve dropped off so much.

    Were done for this year. Time to blood the kids.

    Great start

    Giants went hard that Quarter

    50-50 game from here

    We can definitely beat ‘em. Need to keep the pressure up around the ball and run our hearts out.

    That quarter was the one we are used too.

    Roll the dice....who will turn up?

    Kozzie, Anb, Billings show some leadership fgs.

    Well done Oliver.

    We could have had that game wrapped up but we probably just threw away our finals chances.

    Why isn't Milk playing up the ground more?

    What a waste

    This game is just the perfect summary of our club.

    On and off and all over the place.

    Woey isn't fully ready yet.

     

     

    Giants were never going to lie down. They’re a bloody good team fighting for a spot in the 8 just like us.

    • NON-MFC: Round 06

      The Easter Round kicks off in style with a Thursday night showdown between Brisbane and Collingwood, as both sides look to solidify their spots inside the Top 4 early in the season. Good Friday brings a double-header, with Carlton out to claim consecutive wins when they face the struggling Kangaroos, while later that night the Eagles host the Bombers in Perth, still chasing their first victory of the year. Saturday features another marquee clash as the resurgent Crows look to rebound from back-to-back losses against a formidable GWS outfit. That evening, all eyes will be on Marvel Stadium where Damien Hardwick returns to face his old side—the Tigers—coaching the Suns at a ground he's never hidden his disdain for. Sunday offers two crucial contests where the prize is keeping touch with the Top 8. First, Sydney and Port Adelaide go head-to-head, followed by a fierce battle between the Bulldogs and the Saints. Then, Easter Monday delivers the traditional clash between two bitter rivals, both desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top end of the ladder. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • 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.
