    Geez I don't. McGovern will chew up and spit out Weed.

    And it highlights a problem... we're effectively worrying about THEIR defender. They should be worrying about our forward. Bet they're not !!

    That perspective has the correct focus, beelzebub. Been a while since we applied that confidence and attitude to opponents, and I reckon, that was taken away by the umpires this year in particular.

    You might not want to hear / read this but the betting is tightening up. 

    Tightening up? Other than punters taking the longer odds wonder if they know of a late out?


    My clock feels like it's got flat batteries time is going that slow! C'mon!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I’m hoping for the Dees to do what Essendon did to them over there earlier in the year. 

    With the team we’ve selected today, there is a chance we can do it. Finally we have some speed in the team. 

    The only other change I would’ve liked was Spargo out for JKH. But other than that it’s not a bad side.

    The luxury of that thought! Hope he does, as he really deserves a crack after an interrupted season.

    Injuries are big for WC. They rely on a few big names more than most. 

    If we had Gawn, Oliver and hogan out it would be equivalent imo

    Whatever we do, we CANNOT let them take intercept marks in defence. That killed us again last week . I like the idea of Weed playing on McGovern

    Got any of these in red and blue? I have a feeling this is going to be one of my less well behaved afternoons.

    On the bright side, I'm having memories of 2005 vs Bulldogs flash across my mind unbidden. That's a good sign, yes?

    I was not well behaved that day either.

    Lol, we all are. As supporters it's completely out of our control while we hope the same doesn't happen again this year. Definitely a sickening feeling.

    I am staying off the beer until the game has finished.

    • 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.
