    Williams to Essendon is pretty huge, he was a top forward before he got injured and the Buddy/Roughead tandem came onto the scene. Being a top option up forward for the Dons might work wonders for him and the Bombers. Bring back the shotgun!

    Mate your seriously kidding right? Williams is huge?

    Dons have lost massively in this deal..Essentially Lovett was traded for Mark Williams...

    And from Pick 16 they have been brought back 8 selections to Pick 24 and lost a 23yr old who is a speeding half back in Nash...

    Port have now 3 first round draft picks...8, 9 and 16...and a youngster in Nash...

    Hawks i still think have lost out...as they now have no first round picks...But have Burgoyne..

    Dons fans will be livid..

    I suppose it disadvantages us, given we have first pick in the PSD and we want deals to fall over, but who cares, it's been such a good trade week.

    Better than the usual snooze- fest where a couple of duds get traded at 1:48pm on Friday!

    Even if we do nothing tomorrow, we still come out as the biggest and best position holders in the draft.

    I didn't say Williams is huge, I said Williams going to Essendon is pretty huge. Bit of a difference there, anybody who can read could tell you that.

    I think this off-season is frying my brain.... I am even entertaining thoughts of Wojcinski for god's sake!!

    Let's just get Trengove in a Melbourne jumper so I can relax and take stock of what will be a fantastic era in the history of the MFC....

    Clearly i didnt mean physically mate...and neither did you...

    I am talking about you considering Williams to Essendon huge...

    That was the initial problem..

    Ridiculous statement..

    Whats 'huge' is that Essendon have compromised themselves..On trading a first round pick for a has been...and inconsistent player in Williams...when clearly they the Dons should be on the look out for my KPP's...

    • 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?

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.
