He made David King cry. Crying that he didn't get suspended for annihilating Hurn. 

Boohoo Kingy, boohoo.

    At least that superstar Schofield is free to play. His 6 touches will be vital. 

    Don't forget too that his Brownlow eligibility has been protected.  Maybe Gil knows that he is in the lead at this stage.

    Kingy had a point in that it wasnt equal, but his point was wrong - ziebell shouldnt have been given anything

    Only 3 of them were actually effective... so I'm sure the Eagles are stoked they'll be able to retain that incredible output.

    Love that Clarry has more effective touches in one match than Schofield has in two months :lol:

    I was told on BigFooty by some very involved Eagles supporters that we shouldn't judge by possessions alone. I countered that this must surely mean that Schofield would have stopped Tommy McDonald's goal in the dying minutes instead of being completely unsighted. Not much in the way of a response.

    Jordan Lewis on 360 tonight said Viney’s injury was normally a six week one but he recovered in 16 days. He said some players can play through pain better than others and that mental strength has a lot to do with it. Jack Riewoldt then talked about cousin Nick and his ability to play through injury and made the link to Jack.

    I wasn’t a fan of Viney being promoted to co-captain but it would be difficult to find a more inspirational and hard at it footballer or one more dedicated to the cause.

    The bloke was born to captain this club

    Agree. It was absolutely the right decision, even though I too didn't agree with it at the time.

    Goodwin. He is going to be our Sheedy.

    I loved Tyson's comment from the weekend.

    “He’s remarkable. I don’t think he feels pain,”

    “A truck could hit him tomorrow and he’d still play,”

    It's a shame he played in seperate century's to his old man. My team of the century picture hanging on the wall is a prized possession. He will be in the next. At the moment Whelan and Jetta have the back pockets. Viney in the centre. Neitz at full forward and every other position is up for grabs.

    Disappointed to eagerly open this bump and not get a fix of crushed bones and twisted arms.

    The great man is confirmed back for round 8 vs Gold Coast.

    Looking forward to more opposition tears courtesy of our maniacal skipper.

    If we win this week and then get Viney back next week we could through undefeated for the remainder of the season.

    What amazes me isn't just how hard he hits, its that when he GETS hit, he gets right back up.

    He must have a huge tolerance for pain.

    I think I remember reading an interview where he said what he loves about footy is pulling up the next day with all the bruises.

    Rambo. Or the Terminator.

    2 weeks away, according to the man himself. Is that round 8? Sounds about right.

    Called it.

    Second game in, you're supposed to put in a shocker.

    This gun gets a lazy 35 touches and is inspirational and desperate as usual.

    WHAT A FOOTBALLER❤️

    • 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.
