    It's the handballs without even looking that kill us.

    Who doesn't look?

    Half the side at least.

    It's madness.

    Its just reflex and it's always wrong.

    Salem one of the biggest offenders much of the time.

    OMFG what did I say about Dangerfield! Biggest flopping, oldest moron going around

    It's not pretty.

    And some horrible efforts by us.

    But we playing with more intent at least.

    Duck that umpire.

    Sharpen our disposal even 20 % and we are a chance.

    That's how poor our disposal has been.

    Thankfully taken the cats down to our poor skill.level.

    Max you need to find yourself again. Not one mark on a dry night. What's going on.

    Your seven feet almost.

    Umps need to fix up their understanding of 15 meters. It’s way more inconsistently called than last year.

    a lot of people retiring Max after his one dip in form in years.

    Not even Max can get the better of Old Father Time.

    He desperately needs the back-up ruck we haven't got.

    We are really struggling for skills, game plan, can’t stick a tackle but what we don’t need is to be battling the umpires as well as Geelong! That not 15 call on Kossie was ridiculous. And you cannot touch Danger or Cameron without a fricking whistle blowing! It’s doing my head in.

    Our skills and positioning has never looked worse. We're a shell of the team that trained the house down.

    GAWN AND VINEY CAPTAIN AND VICE CAPTAIN TO CASEY... JUST TERRIBLE


    Plenty of glimmers of hope and positives. Probably not enough, but at least they look like a football team. At times.

    Get Windsor and Kozzie back up to speed, Lindsay and Lever back in ... building, building.

    Agree that Petty needs to be shown the door.

    Lacks any sense of footy iq, is slow and lazy.

    I can forgive the first two DD, but I question his effort. Has been absolutely pathetic tonight.

    • 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.
