If our club is worth anything it'll ask what that was about.

I'm tired of the umps siding with the team who's favourite to win

Jeff Geishen, time to go

    haha i agree to an extent. Some decisions tonight were.... well... i dont want to say wrong, because i usually give the umpires a go... but tonight they f*@#ed up. So many incorrect decisions, for both teams. But the impact that they had on us was ridiculous. They denied us 2 goals from the ball being "touched". That deliberate from Frawley was joke. That holding the ball against us by Aker??? seriously that was holding the ball.

    Maybe at the essendon game this week the umpires should wear a black shirt with a red stripe just to be subtle.

    I am FUROUS TONIGHT

    Couldn't put it better myself. Our only Friday night for the season is turned into a debacle by the hardheaded blindness of the AFL and the ineptitude of the officials. Someone should be made to pay, and for mine Demetriou is a nice sounding name to head the list.

    Someone did, it was the MFC. 4 point out the window, and handed to the doggies.

    You can excuse the umpires for the holding the ball stuff. You have to consider the conditons and with the slippery surface comes fumbles, and slips. Inexcusable were the "touched" points and 2 out of bounds calls that were clearly throw ins.

    • 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.
