    If he plays like he did in the finals, then Jesse will be a distant memory.

    Big futuregir Sam

    Love his commitment skills awareness of Team responsibility and faith in the Club.

    Big year for Sam 35/50 goals.

    Like any Dees fan will never forget that Elim Final and the super performance from all and Sam's bog.

    Breakout last few games in 2018.

    Interesting. I was thinking of Steven May as Hogan's 'replacement', as he was the main part of the trade deal. I had expected the Weid to continue his improvement in the seniors regardless of who he played alongside.

    Vs Geelong last year:

    12 Kicks, 12 handballs, 7 marks, 3 goals, 4 tackles...

    He's going to be a gun...

    I'm really hoping for a forward line of TMac, Weid and Hunt next year.

    I think that was just about my favourite piece of footage all year.

    Lol at some of the comments in the clip. Some never miss a chance to pay out on Ablett. I do like the one about looking for a cheapie over the top rather than providing a shepherd for Danger.

    Scary to think what Weid may become.

    Bub, don't you remember that bloke with the bad body language who used to play in the forward line.

    No, not the blonde haired guy, the other one.

    Fantastic moment in a huge game.  Well done Sam.

    The surfy skulks away and the bald has-been tries but fails for a cheap shot.

    A pivotal moment for the game, the team and the individual.  GO WEEDS (would never have thought, 50 years ago, that I would ever ever say that)

    Ablett’s little hip and shoulder after the event. Very Useful....

    It was a glorious night. Pity we didn’t score more goals. The boys sure worked hard enough

    Love how the Weed goes about it.  no fanfare, no talk, just head down work hard. his agility and aggression improved last year.

    still a lot to work on but the signs are good.

    It sums up where Geelong are at, and what the inclusion on Ablett has done to their team.

    There's two ways of looking at Ablett in that clip.  The first being that he was really in the perfect position for the "cheap" one over the top, but Danger was too slow to acknowledge it, and tried to do too much.  Had he (Danger) got the hands over to Ablett, he was in a world of space.  But, it was Danger's immediate response to do the individual thing that saw him get crunched.

    That said, had Ablett put that shepherd on, Danger was also in a world of space (he would've blown Nibbler away).  Ablett's selfishness cost them as well.

    While a lot of what happened on the night can be put down to us just dominating the Cats from the first second, that passage of play goes right to the core of what's wrong with Geelong in general.  It's bloody marvellous.

    Back on topic, Sammy's just a nice boy who can play bloody good footy.  My love for him grows by the minute.

    A great night indeed SWYL. A crowd of 90,000 with at least 60,000 Dees fans in attendance.

    Yes. We can be a big powerful Club again with sustainable Hard Work

    to see the MCG full making so much noise that night was a beautiful thing and we should strive to be there every year

    It is our home ?

    No doubt we're starting to mobilise but we're a hell of along way off being a power club.
    That game was 12yrs of pent up frustration released and we were all there to blow the roof of our own dung heap right off.

    Yep. And a lot of them were not Members, but the opportunity is there, with hard work. 

    If 40,000 rolled up we would be in trouble, but that didn’t happen

    I’m going to be very unpopular here and say i’m not convinced.

    He is good at ground level but in the air I don’t see it.

    Even in that final the marks he took fell to him and he didn’t take them cleanly.

    i’m hoping it’s a strength thing and he proves me wrong with a greater upper body.

    • 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.

      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?
