Sydney loves to run over the mark .... got away with it all day against us. 

Nice to see them humiliated as they exit 

Masters of the 9m kick (awarded as mark), cribbing over the mark, and invading the "protected zone".

All should be picked up by the umps, but the umps are useless, so Syd take advantage. Die Sydney!

Frankenstein really relies on great delivery.  Cut out their mids and he is bloody near useless.

How many more years on his 99 year lease?  Looks past it really, and not particularly interested. 

Four more years and he's nearly 32

    Zac Jones nothing like his brother - faux tough with cheap snipes but doesn’t put his head over the ball when it counts.

    Yes, ours is cheap tough with faux snipes and counts his balls over his head when .... oh never mind.

    GO OUR JONES BROTHER!!!

    Damn it, Sydney just managed to score more goals than Weideman. 

    He's young and raw. Cut him a break.

    OMG that song ?

    Surely more than sufficient reason that they should never ever play a GF.

    Blloody awful. 

    Please people. For the sake of your health, watch with the sound off.

    I am hoping the Giants get through to Richmond, the belt the daylights out of each other, before the winner loses the GF to us.

    I think Richmond would have their measure.. GWS need space.. Have been to see them play a few sides and if you can crowd them thus stopping the run and give they are susceptible.

    It's an interesting discussion re this evening's game as to who has the better chance of knocking off Richmond in the Prelim thus giving us the chance at the holy grail.

    Fending  off with the foot must be outlawed immediately 

    So dangerous and, as Gillon might  say, not good for “the image of the game”.

    How embarrassing were the Swans?  4.6.30 losing to 10.19.79.  WOW! 10 scoring shots to 29.

    So, two recent AFL 'heavyweights' now out of the finals race.

    Up to us to eliminate the remaining 'heavyweight' next week.  Very confident we will get the job done. 

    That's the story of this Finals series IMO. The changing of the guard.

    Geelong, Hawthorn, Sydney give way to Richmond, Melbourne, GWS.

    Agreed.

    It’s just not a good look - particularly with studded boots.

    Wow a minutes silence for Travis Varcoe’s Sister and he is standing there dead still. 

    Heavy stuff.

    Obviously feel for Varcoe, hope he goes well.

    Would we rather play West Coast over there again or Pies at the G (if we get past the Hawks)? I’m thinking Pies at the G. Kennedy and Darling (playing a full game) is a scary prospect.

    I am ok playing WC in a prelim (If we are lucky enough to get to prelim). A road trip with the group we have holds no fears. 

    In some ways I would almost prefer that to ours at G (aside from not being able to see it live).

    They’d have to get it down to them first.

    Pies out in straight sets would be pleasant also.

    • 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.
