Hibberd so physically stong. Plus great disposal in traffic.

Ok. Vanders is clearly best-22 now. I take back my comment from 3 years ago.

    Vander what a bonus. Power and sength.


    Harmes is an animal. Might have KO'ed Melksham.

    STOP GETTING INJURIES! [censored]

     

    All those games we lost at the MCG this year because of copious out-the-back goals?

    Enter Sam Frost and now those goals are saved and we get to rebound and take our own opportunity. Frost is a perfect MCG player for us.

    That didn't take Trac long to redeem himself.

    Faaark to high gift. Justice missed.


    Surely that was high against Jetta? YASS!

    Someone other than Melbourne missing golden opportunities? This must be our lucky day!

    So true chook. His leg speed and ability to win contested balls out the back has been massive for us.

    We smashed them that quarter. Again, couldn't put it on the score board. If we keep that pressure up we win


    I could see that was high from the top deck at the other end of the ground. How can the 3 umps miss it.

    Melksham okay?

    GWS is bruise free and want the easy transition. Give it to them. Once the ball gets to a contest they are average.

     

    Our delivery into the forward line needs to improve, I swear players don’t look sometimes and goes straight down the throat of the opposition.

    I could do a better job.

    Smarten up Dees!

    • 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.
