richmond freo will be interesting.

Its actually scary what the hawks have done to freo, sydney and now carlton in the past 3 weeks. Next friday night they have richmond. But this is what top sides do. They crush the lower teams. But its also sort of nice to see another team cop it. But now I guess now we know how awful we have looked over the years. But Im not sure Gill will be happy today with that game on last night while over at the G over 99,000 were at the soccer. Im just glad we dont have to play hawthorn again this season. By the way is anyone secretly hoping brisbane beat nth tonight and will find it funny if they do and wreck boomers 400th. Plus put the spotlight on nth again. I cant see it happening though.

That looked like a pretty hard punch to the guts. Gibson got fined earlier in the season for that. Hawks are getting a little sneaky with mitchells little dead legs and gibsons little tummy taps.

Not going to bother watching it. And I wont watch essendon port tomorrow night, well may tune in if the bummers are getting thrashed.

cloke subbed out with a tweak of the calf.

So Joe the goose couldn't miss last week and was kicking them from outside 50. But last night he couldn't get this through.http://www.news.com.au/sport/afl/how-did-joe-daniher-miss-this-goal/story-fndv8gad-1227446412857

gosh essendon a roll 4 straight goals. It would be so frustrating being a nth fan.

Typical, Daniher misses this week. Couldn't miss last week could he. Im flicking between the cricket and the storm game. Hope the bummers get flogged.

as roosy said Adelaide had the chance to get goodwin when they were looking for a coach before they got Walsh. But it would be good for him to come out and say im staying.

Oh my apologies it felt like he has been around the club for longer. But he has been under 2 premiership coaches in roos and thompson. Its good he will be here for 2 seasons and he will have a good look at the players and what he has to work with.

Goodwin has been here for 2 seasons now learning under roosy and he knows he has a job for the next 5 years or whatever it is. I get why Adelaide would ask the question but I cant see him going anywhere and if he does it will set us back even further.

dogs have kicked 5 in a row. Helps that you kick straight as well. Geez a year ago people were saying they are a basket case. Sack there coach and lose there captain. They are sitting 6th on the ladder and they are above collingwood. Christ they dont focus on there past. They just get on with the future. Makes me wonder how we beat them. They have now won 4 in a row.

Christ dogs coming back and interesting subs tonight in the nth geelong game. Subs are Brent Harvey (@NMFCOfficial) and James Kelly (@GeelongCats) Not bad players to bring on.

What about Lumumba out. He annoyed me today and he had a chance to run over and kill that contest and help dunn out where daniher kicked that final goal but he just stood there. Bring Fitzy in for him.

Christ suddenly gold coast are looking good again. Its amazing how 1 man lifts them. We would want to beat brisbane next week or we may face the wooden spoon.

Essendon were coming off a 110 point loss. We should have beaten them today and dig the hurt into them a little deeper.

also I reckon we are missing Kent in our midfield.

Just got home from the game. My god that was the worst 1/2 of footy ive ever seen and this was essenson as well. The 3rd quarter we were non existent. The last quarter we had 19-6 inside 50's. We had our chances. It was a good move to move Tommy in the forward line and he had an awesome quarter but he just could not kick a goal. If he kicked straight we would have won. But the frustrations for me today was Dawes- gave away a silly 50 metre penalty which resulted in a daniher goal Gawn smashed it in the the ruck but just couldnt get it to our midfield. His contested marking is good though WE just didnt support each other around the ball. Essendon always had 1 there to give it to. Look at all those senior players essesndon were missing today. WE have managed to beat them when we have been crap yet couldnt do it today. I reckon our midfield was smashed. Vince and jones were shocking by foot At time I felt for hogan today. There were times there when he was going up for marks in a pack and getting spoiled by other teammates. Gartlett should stay down and im not sure why Neal Bullen would get in his way. Also in the last quarter when watts had the ball hogan led up beautifully in the centre and watts ignored him. You also have to remember who was playing on him. Hurley is not a bad player. Its dawes we have to be more frustrated with at the moment. And my nightmare came true today. We bought cloke back into form and now we did it with daniher. Opposition clubs out there if you have a key forward who is struggling just play us. We will get them back into form. I seriously do not no how we beat geelong. Melbourne cannot handle being favorites. So glad I chose to work instead of watching them play brisbane next week. Im so frustrated and angry.

Well we have beaten essendon twice when we have been crap. So saying that we should win. However this is melbourne and we are never sure what to expect. Im just hoping that Daniher suddenly doesnt find his kicking boot like cloke did QB. I like to see viney go to hepp and vince annoyt the hell out of BJ. Come one melbourne hammer them.

Turds team made 4 changes In: H.Hocking , A.Browne , P.Ambrose , J.Laverde Out: A.Cooney (Hamstring) , J.Watson (Shoulder) , C.Dempsey (Omitted) , E.Kavanagh (Omitted)

Well we all know how Sheedy hates us. I bet he has the players revved up. Great that Harmes will debut and he was a Melbourne supporter growing up. Also good to see Vince and Jones have been his mentors. I expect changes to be made and we go smaller. I expect Spencer could be dropped, only because I would prefer maxy in the wet conditions. I hope Gus plays. Here is the team Nice to see vanders back. These conditions will be perfect for him. Toump a surprise drop but maybe not for some.

be so annoyed, we have managed to beat them when we have been down and pathetic over the years. So now that we have improved and essendon are down we should win. In saying that who knows what will happen. It looks like ti will be a wet miserable day. But we need to beat them just to make there pain worse. But I will scream if Joe Daniher suddenly finds his kicking boot like cloke did against us.

Christ this just gets more heart breaking the more you hear of it. Stabbed in the back while he was in bed. Jesus. http://www.heraldsun.com.au/sport/afl/daughter-quinn-walshs-message-of-grief-after-her-father-phil-walshs-murder/story-fnp04d70-1227428769282

I agree, the game would have been closer but would melbourne made as much money out of it. Unfortunately when you are rolling in money we need to take these deals. Just check to see how long we have on this deal and I think it ends at the end of next year. It would make sense to play in darwin the week before the bye.

Soemone in the media mentioned the other day about Howe's manager shopping him around for about 650k and said there is no way Howe should get paid more than Dan Hannebery. Which is true. No way he should.
