Haven’t been able to watch the match unfortunately.  Have the commentators mentioned if Charlie Curnow might be out there playing..?

    I can't believe how confidently they are saying Harry what his name will be a good player based on being quick and going back with the flight.

    I've backed saints over 60 points so i hope they start kicking straight

    I turned off after watching the third replay of Harry McKay hitting the post and the commentary team telling me how exciting it was.

    Thanks AFL.

    Had enough and switching to the Tour de France. 

    Thank channel 7. Apparently it is their decision who plays the prime time Friday night slot

    At half time, King and Zaharakis pointed out a couple of occasions where Carlton players would turn looking for a handball to a runner that wasn't there, and since then I can't stop seeing it happen to them.  They always look like they've got one less player at the contests than they were expecting or something.  At least these days when we've got the ball, you'd back us in to keep it move it forward.  I'd have a heart attack every time I saw a hot ball if I barracked for this lot.

    Jed Lamb living up to the legacy of former Carlton greats by being an eye gouger  and then topping it off by kneeing someone in the back. 

    What a class act he is. ?

    Lamb reminds me a lot of a bloke we sadly have playing for us ??

    Well, if we have any Demonlanders living in NZ, they can officially start the Game Day thread.

    Is Carlton the new "yesterday" demons? Perhaps Bolton and Neeld are secretly related?  Then again we received more smashings in a footy year than the blues.

    Agree. Carlton have also waved the white flag, which definitely hasn't helped. Bed sounds inviting.

    I'll join you in 10 mins darling

    • 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.
