    I'll be sick if Essendon win this. All the stars aligning for them with Richmond basically happy to start tanking. Disgusting.

    now that is a juxtaposition of themes... do they serve rum on board ?

    I have just been reliving some of my train trips across India.... definitely no rum !

    Richmond 24..bombers 15... Tiges on top ... Bombers getting some favourable umpire interpretations

    If this is Richmond ‘tanking’, then hand them the cup now.

    Regardless of whether or not we miss finals, please for the love of God let these drug cheating assholes lose tonight so we can rest easy knowing they can't take our place.

    I’m not watching the game but remember the Tigers and Bombers hate each other, Richmond and Dimma doesn’t strike me as someone that would be comfortable with his players coasting.

    Not coasting, have had all the play just not scoring.

    Richmond just don’t allow repeat inside 50s by the opposition. Seems like they have mastered everything from tap ons to backheels and any way possible to get the ball forward.

    Goddard is a dead weight on Essendon.  How he can look so indignant at others when he put in such a weak effort himself is beyond me.

    The Bombers are definitely right to wait on his contract.

    Goddard is playing injured - but it’s desperate times, desperate measures for the Peppies tonight, so they want their best players in

    They’ll win this

    Tigers are coasting 

    They are SCARY good, and their ability to not have injured players is outstanding

    Bugger poaching coaches, I want their medical and conditioning staff

    Did Richmond pinch our goal kicking coach during the week?

    Yep.They are a much better side than the druggies and are keeping them in it.

    Imagine how good Richmond would be with a half decent ruckman...

    Not sure if I massively underrated Josh Caddy or if he has improved out of sight in the last two years. But boy he is a handy player now.

    • 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.

    • PREGAME: Essendon

      Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?
