    Will they be under instructions to keep MFC in the race given that WCE are certain double chance?

    I was secretly hoping this may be the case.

    In all honesty, that was one of the most biased calls I’ve ever heard in a game of football. Atrocious effort.

    Pretty ordinary game. I flicked across to the Storm game, now that"s how to win a game when all the odds (plus the commentators) are against you. Get whoever motivates the Storm down to the Dees....Urgently!!!

    Honestly, that Umpiring was shameful.  I didn’t give a rats toss about the game, but the umpiring was perhaps the worst and most blatant I have ever seen.  Conspiracy theorists can have a field day.  That made the whole comp looked like a rigged shill game.

    Well Port won’t have to worry about the filth tmrw coz the druggies will be useless next week. They couldn’t even win with umps blatently favouring them against a depleted side.

    This isn't a good omen for Sunday.

    The comp is becoming a disgrace

    You have to be joking. They will prefer the cats and port in the 8 before us. They will crucify us on Sunday. North might be on for a tough ride on Sunday as well. They don’t have the numbers as well.

    We'll be lucky to come within half of the free kicks West Coast get gifted. It doesn't fit the AFL directive for us to make finals when they know getting Geelong/Sydney/Port in before us makes them more money. They'll be desperate to ensure SA has a team represented, that their precious NSW market has both teams playing finals, and that Geelong's "superstars" get their fairytale finals campaign. The fix is on.

    28 to 13 against Richmond. Tigers were unfazed and just went about their business. Wish our blokes did the same. Pretty hard though in our situation when they give no clear indication of impartiality for a whole game's worth........................

    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.

    Is it me or has he really dropped of the cliff since about 10 rnds in? He looked terrible tonight... I liked it.

    Wouldnt say completely unfazed though. Interesting Dimma sticking up for his players and never a whimper from Goodwin. That was blatant cheating last night to get the bombers home. You cant tell me they dont try and even up the competition to make it look better.

    • 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.
