They lost this one at the selection table. Walker, Fogarty, Lynch, Jenkins, Jacobs, Talia, Hartigan, Kelly, Doedee. Wayyyy too tall for a wet weather game. Only need 5 of those playing. Jacobs, 2  tall forwards and 2 tall mobile backs.

Also shows how hard it is to replace your best players. Both Crouches out and they are poo.

We had no Gawn, Viney, Hogan & Jones for large portions of last season and it was never mentioned by the 'experts'.

Collingwood's also missing a host of players - Elliott, Moore, Greenwood, Adams, Wells, Goldsack, Broomhead.

    It’s all about midfield depth people!

    This has to be the worst tackling I’ve seen from any team this year. Pies waltzing through 1 on 1 tackles.

    2 of Adelaide’s 4 goals from dubious 50m penalties , just shows how bad they’ve been

    That is a terrible free kick. Both going for the pill, I am all for looking after the brain box and brain but you have to allow 50/50 contests.

    Well done Tex.

    Pump the fist like the great leader you are after getting a free kick from your team mate putting there head over the pill.

    He is just a moron and is so over rated imo. Does nothing when the game is hot

    Only bested in those stakes by Josh Jenkins. So incredibly overrated and continually spuds it up when any sort of pressure is on.

    His own supporters bronx cheering when he finally took a mark deep into the third quarter.

    I tipped the Crows but deep down I knew Collingwood were a good chance.

    Who else is looking forward to the Queens Birthday Gawn v Grundy battle? It’s gonna be of epic proportions

    Yes JJ has been very very poor as well. I forgot he was playing till he took a couple grabs that quarter. 

    There whole forward line is in shambles. Last year it seemed so potent. Tonight we have 1 goal kicked and less than a handful of effective touches from Betts, JJ, Walker (just shanked a kick whilst I wrote this) and Lynch.....

    it’s beautiful ?

    Josh Jenkins is worse.  The biggest front running forward in footy.  The moment the game is on the line he goes to water.

    I don’t think I’ve been interested in any games I’ve watch this year except for our own.

    I've chosen to do some work (and when I say work I mean procrastinate, and look at demonland) instead - that's how little interest I could muster Nasher.

    I'm almost at the point of turning it off because the annoyance of BT's voice is interrupting the peace.

    His ego killed the GF. For the crows at least.

    Eddie Betts has done a hammy. 

    We don't play them till round 10 :(

    • 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.
