They just said on ch7 sport Frawley is out of tomorrows game. So Joel MacDonald is going to have to step up big time. This is a huge loss especially with Essendons powerful foward line.

Im assuming Sellar would come in ahead of Bate and Bennell. I do not want to see watts kick in after last weeks effort.

Our midfeild will have to step up another gear and stop the ball from getting down there easily.

    Confirmed on the AFL website... Sellar in and Morton brought up as an emergency

    Did you attend last weeks game? Watts was impressive with his kick ins...

    Perhaps Frawleys foot condition prompted the recent change of heart about playing Watts back rather than on the wing/forward.

    hoping watts can pick up a ryder or someone when he's playing forward and run off him the other way, would also help jamar out tiring ryder out so he's not as fresh when he goes into back up ruck. it would be awesome to see watts beat ryder, I dont want to see him just play loose, if he could hold an opponent and attack that would be great, gonna need it with frawley out.

    • 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.

      Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?
