I’m so over Jordan Lewis undisciplined play.

Every week he gives the opposition goals on a silver platter.

They always seem to be at really inopportune times as well, and come as part of an oppo run on.

Gerard Healy’s percentage booster comment shows how out if touch he is with the game and the season...

    Max won't kick that.

    No way! He's done it.

    I've never wanted a player to unexplainably collapse anymore than I have right now

    so glad max kicked that before I hit enter


    Max, finalllllllyyyyyyyy, was watching through fingers

    Useless fact.

    2 years in a row in Darwin we have kicked a goal on the 3 quarter time siren.

    Dumb play not exclusive to us.

    To be fair he's just making a comment on what should be happening in this game. We should be up by 60-80 points. Shooting our selves in the foot repeatedly.

     

    Are we sure Lewis isn't a double agent? Every time we gain momentum in a match he halts it.

    Forget the scoreline. This is an absolute hiding.

    Still time for the scoreline to finally reflect yet.

    Nope

     

    not a hiding unless the scoring reflects it

     

    in 1996, Greg Norman dominated Augusta. Um nope

    edit; sorry you said there's still time

    • 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.
