Third time lucky for Jesse.  His fourth mark already.  Already feels like the balance of our side is good tonight.


Dominating the start of another game but can't capitalise again. Another week, same old Melbourne.

    ZERO SCOREBOARD PRESSURE!


    Uh god only option for following this game is the radio and i have to listen to TerryWallace. That voice should not be on air. Id appreciate lots of updates here thanks.


    One goal isn't panic stations yet, ladies and germs.  We've missed our shots, but the positive is we're getting them, unlike other games.

    A small positive there was Petracca - he got back to spoil that ball in defensive 50 and then affected the tackle to get it out of bounds.  Good to see that defensive effort from him.

    ANB is such a terrible kick of the football. It is embarrassing to watch. I have no idea how someone who cannot execute the ball at all - can get a game at the highest level. I would think its a minimum requirement. He needs to be a link man instead of being on the end of the play.

    Hogan is killing it and playing very well. Bayley Fritsch always catches my eye.

    Stretchy has been in everything so far tonight. Great signs for him.

    • 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.
