Fatigue incoming…………

Bombers to get the first couple of goals in the last qtr. Probably in the first two minutes.

I’ve read this book before.

    Not the first and won't be the last to vomit then laugh repeatedly when called out. It's a cheap trick, like rage quitting.

    Won't be round long, they never are.

    How much do the boys believe?

    Let’s see how bad they want this win. The first 30 seconds and you’ll know.

    Last quarters have been our worst all year. This will be fascinating.

    I hope May roasted himself for that.

    Side note - umpiring has been noticeably rubbish this round.

    It's rubbish every round. Just consistently favours the same few teams.

    Much better quarter

    If we play like that in the last we will win easily. But what are the odds of that?

    Umpires getting involved, that was a mark for May if that was the Bombers it would have been paid.

    How about the Milkshake he’s great isn’t he!?!

    At least there was some effort and attitude that quarter. Is it too little too late?

    Need the same application in the last.

    At least that quarter was watchable. We might pull this off, but watching us is a total gut wrench.

    And well done Fritsch - to step up like that was outstanding. You too Milkshake and Spargs.


    Hat off to Trac in that quarter busted his gut. Lifted the side.

    Like the Perkins one? Clearly dropped.

    My advice. Don’t look at emoji responses. Some ppl get frills for baiting you. Frankly don’t invest to your posts on game day threads - ppl are emotion wrecks … like me..

    Was hoping so bad that we could hold out there and not have lucky break situation for them like that.

    This season is showing we fall away when faced with this situation but the what if is strong.

    Please just don't concede 3 centre clearances in a row.

    Hey at least it’s fun to watch again, wish Oliver kicked that goal though it would have been vintage 2021

    Shorter kicks = goals. Players leading up = goals. Players that can kick into F50 = goals.

    Until they pull out the 'not 15' card. Honestly, you can't beat em.

    • 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?
