Duursma, Butters and Roze all look like great draft choices. That's a great group to build around going forward for the Power.

    Feel horrible for Cynthia, my deepest sympathies. No one deserves to be ridiculed on national television, least of all an amputee who has already suffered so much.

    Just another example of white male privilege in an industry dominated by the elite boys club. Pathetic stuff. As usual it'll be slept under the rug and ultimately ignored, with the instigator ultimately rewarded with a pay rise and bigger exposure. 

    wtf has colour got to do with this?  jeeeez

    Off topic ramble  -  the new AFL.com website is awful.

    Why do the morons that run the game ruin everything?

    Spot on mate

    Last year i was O/S for all of the Home and Away games so i used the AFL App on my phone often. 

    It worked well, but this year it is a dogs breakfast. I hate to think what it is like on a full screen Laptop!!

    one of the reasons i got out of TV last year was because of new apps over complicating a once simple task...

    Bomberblitz has a thread on sacking their coach John Worsfold.... nowhere near as cerebral as the one on Demonland last year but I cringe at the love for Hird...

    "I think bringing back Hird signals the club standing up for what it believes is right. Who are we as a club? The efforts of the Board and the club during the saga would give me, if I were a player, zero confidence that they are there for them.

    Our culture shattered the minute we let a club champion be the scapegoat."

    Watts off on the stretcher, no idea what happened

    Broken his leg apparently.  How bad hasn't been said.

    Eddie's belittling, regardless of knowledge, is still making a mockery of someone' ability.  A bit rich coming from a guy that never played the game at anywhere near the highest level, a game that consumes his life.

    Swans want AFL to take action on Eddie.

    In that article is vision of the toss.  Its the first time I've seen it.  The toss looked fine so I don't know what he was on about in the first place.  Until seeing that I thought Eddie was just being stupid and disrespecting to all ball-tossers but now I think he was using the toss as a foil to belittle someone who is different.

    I only hope McGuire steps down from more than just Saturday Nights broadcast. 

    He should have been removed a long time ago.

    Brisbane are a joy to watch. Wish we got Charlie Cameron. Neale has been incredible for them as well. Like I said last week, they’ll make the 8.

    Honestly feel they almost have a better list than us. Cameron is a star, Rayner, McCluggage and Hipwood up and coming stars. Neale is a beast. Harris Andrews a pillar in defence. We only beat them in the ruck and midfield slightly.

    Good to see Cunnington given a 50 metre penalty for a gut punch in a marking contest. Lions might be the team to replace us in the 8.

    Wouldn’t mind Jack Martin.

    Seeing the Doggies and Suns win has dulled the pain a bit.

    When are umpires going to learn to be seen and not heard?

    They are there to officiate the game, not be a part of it, FFS!

    Sick of watching a game or attending a game and the umpires being a major talking point afterwards.

    • REPORT: Essendon

      What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

    • 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?
