wtf are they doing in the coaches box? Are we just rocking back and forth repeating “it’ll come good stick to the process”?

We’ll be lucky to have 40,000 members next year if Goodwin and this playing style is persisted with.

Goody never gives them a spray. That's what this team needs & I'd give fritsch a separate spray

    Enough is enough. This is really shameful from Goodwin and co. We always knew he has no clue how to coach ball movement but to also now be the worst clearance team in the comp is unacceptable.

     

    1st quarter

    🤮comedy of errors

    🤮bombers are [censored]. 💩💩 Dees are WORSE

    🤮fumbles by Fritsch Clarry Petracca Rivers … perfect conditions

    🤮chances chances chances -13 inside 50d (1 goal)

    🤮Spargo 3 bad errors already

    🤮JVR …minus 3

    🤮pressure? 8 tackles only

    ⭐️Pickett goal

    👍🏻Tmcd Viney

    Bummers 22. Dees 10.

    Un defendable stat.

    Absolutely. How could we? We’re told the team is not satisfied with getting better, and we need to get to the level. We’re not happy etc. You would assume we’d come out firing. Hungry. Desperate.

    No??

    Depressing and really confusing.

    Watching from the top deck at the ground, I haven’t Simon that animated at the end of the quarter time huddle.

    Hey can you tell me, with the longer kicks into F50, are we kicking it over shorter options?

    Has completely removed any of our contest & defence we had , the continued bombing to a short fwd line, not picking Turner a tall wtf he has to go he’s lost the plot

    1 handed handball. No call.

    This observation from the Age feed. At least I can access that

    "They have no marks inside 50. It’s as though they come to training in whatever gear they want to wear and muck around."

    Massage Sacking must take place

    Saw it in Jones before the game.

    Read the room.

    Start with a caressing of the neck & shoulders before being swung out the door by both feet?

    i think we might concede even more uncontested marks this week.

    we are so bad right now

    How can Trac not snap from 35 out?

    Finally we kick to a leading forward and it's…Langdon. OK then!

    He's going to want to stay in Europe longer. I wouldn't blame him

    finally some passion

    maybe that will spark them

    • 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?
