    Landed on his side and rolled onto his back, such a poor call. The umpires are a disgrace.

    That 50 wasn't there. The downfield was an absolute farce. The fact the Oliver doesnt get a 50 when the saints player doesnt give the ball back on the full. 

    3 goals right there.

    Rubbish. All flying for the ball , no-one staying down. They think their better and it will cost them if they keep it up.

    Midfield not working hard both ways.

    Gonna be a long day.

    That 50 was %100 there. both our players infringed blatantly, you would think they would know that rule by now. 

    Hogan, Petracca and T McDonald with 9 possessions in total between them....our forward structure needs  a shake up

    St K 10 i50s 7 scoring shots. Defence working well again.....

    Well...Saints have come to play...no surprise. Can they maintain the pressure for 4/4 ? If so...we haveca problem.

    Theyre blanketting Tmac. 

    We're struggling to get at sticks...Gus aside.

    Need a much better qtr to get back ahead.

    Pretty ordinary effort from the umpires that quarter. I’ve only just calmed down from the umpiring last week. It really is turning me off the game.

    We’ve clearly got more class. Hopefully the saints coming back into that quarter is a wake up call for effort.

    Losing Lever is going to cost us ... well, whatever we might have achieved. Backline inexperienced, both individually and together.

    Killing us on the outside. Everyone flying up for the ball. Ugh. 

    We’ve missed Hogan the last 3 weeks. Anyone know when he’s back?

    The first 50 was there but the free kick in the first place wasn’t. The second 50 was a disgrace. 

    But it’s the same old problems. 18 inside 50s for 4.2. They drop numbers back and just wait for us to turn it over. Hogan, Weed and TMac can’t get any separation on their man. And laziness through the middle, especially when Gawn went off.

    Where in Mark Neeld: “didn’t see that coming “

    Love fritta.

     

    Why, why do we keep making those terrible transition hanballs like harmes just did.

    Costs us a goal.

    The umpires are rubbish but, gee, they shouldn't even be a consideration we should be miles in front of these clowns.

    • 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.
