Couldn't watch after Roughead got that free straight in front. Chamomile tea and all notifications turned off so my obnoxious Tigers mates didn't rub it in...

Bugger.

    Loved the grind... not sexy, not frontrunners, a bloody skillful bunch of  hard as nails blokes who are committed to the cause... 

    Built for finals for sure.

    Lessons have been learned on how to steady and wrestle back momentum in those games when teams come charging. 

    This is immensely exciting. Feels different to last week though - I’m overtaken by a weird calm. Great result, but job not done yet. Still going to indulge in a few bathwaters though ;)

    How good was that? For all the talk of how much Viney could contribute so soon after his injury... How BLOODY GOOD WAS HE?

    Woop woop. 

    So satisfying. No super-stand-out performers but a massive team effort overcoming the grind. 

    Go Dees.

    Can honestly say for a bloke from Adelaide that was one of the best nifhts of my life as a Dees supporter. So loud the Dees fans were. [censored] off Hawthorn.

    Much as I loved going last week. Definite advantage to stay at home though. At least won’t be asleep at 1:30.

    You could feel it in the song when we were belting it out.

    There's something here.

    The Umpires tried damn hard to take it off us.  Amazing composure to pull control back out of their hands and run away with it.

    Gotta say didnt think we would beat this mob. They have owned us for decades. They smashed us in round 4. Did not understand us being faves. The y came at as hard in the last with the umps on their side. We held fast.

    We are the champio ns. We are the champions.

    We have come a long way.  Men on a mission this year but we'll be playing finals for the foreseeable future as well.  The future is bright. 

    An even contribution from all the team members too.  Goodwin has got us playing as a real team - no weak links,  total team. 

    If we bring the same intensity next week,  we'll win and progress.  Lookout Eagles,  we're coming your way!

    • 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?
