    Fuggit. Can't they both lose in heartbreaking fashion?

    Carlton is actually alright.  A lot of upside imo and I think they're well coached.

    I hate Norf much more than Caaaaaaarlton.

    This North vs Carlton game has been a lot like our game against North last week. NM get out to a big lead which is wheeled in and then ultimately pushed back out again in the 4th quarter.

    The Orange men march on

    Not a bad win and they still have quite a few to come back

    WC played  a great style of game against them by closing down the forward half and then counterattacking.

    GWS' game reminded me of the Lions at their best when they would deliberately play for stoppages and out of bounds.

    If you think about it for a moment it is a great tactic for halving the zone and if you have better stoppage players it is a real percentage play.

    Perhaps we should consider calling ourselves the Melbourne Emus. Quite clearly if you're on the National Coat of Arms you're a protected species.

    ...or they could simply call us WLWLWL...

    GWS list depth is as unbelievable as suspected.  Their injury list is brutal and they just keep winning.

    Yep GWS will get there players back closer to finals it's hard not to see them win it, and they have deledio who hasn't played a game yet he could be the cream once finals come not that they need it, if GWS win a flag might be easier to pry some players out of there

    Spot on... the sooner they win a flag the better it will be for the other teams in the sense that GWS will be well and truly raided. My only concern is that they will receive high draft picks in return for the leaving players and the dominance will continue for a few more years. The are like the mythical hydra.... cut off a head and another two grow back !!

    The way to beat GWS is to squeeze the life out of the game .... (the ultra flood etc) if you let them run free they will cut any side to pieces. WC nearly succeeded last night.

    • 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.
