Great kick spargo looks like he has gained 5 or 10 meters on his kick... or is there a wind?

 

Gawn is so much better than anyone else on the ground today. He needs to go rest now. We are legitimately [censored] without him.

    Neale, Mcluccage and co are giving Oliver and Brayshaw a bath around the ball. Haven't sen our young stars dominated like this around the ball before (outside the Prelim...)

    We might want to match their intensity and numbers at the ball, might help a lot.

    Are you subtlety suggesting he needs more depth in his kicking?

    Harmes off with finger injury. This is turning into a shocking day for the club.


    Harmes dislocated finger.... put the 3rds on the park FFS

    Let’s call this game and move on. I don’t like this match. It’s got bad vibes.

    Brisbane playing out of their skin and we are average... yet we're just 8 points down.  Goes to show how much better we can be, and how good we are even when we're not on.

    Cut it off and get back out there!

    Our forwards have to stop flying for the same balls. 

    Bloody annoying, clearly lack of communication, but i'd rather all went up than none at all.

     

    Our forwards keep jumping into Weid and ruining his aerial marking attempts. Tim Smith did it against the Pies, Joel Smith did it last week and again today. Weid just had a perfect jump and sit then, but Smith flew in trying to be a hero and spoilt a clear mark and goal shot for us. Getting very frustrating, and a key reason I'm not a fan of J Smith. Just completely lacks a footy brain.

    • 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.
