For anyone who would care to comment.  I've lost interest.

X 2 Luci.

I’d rather spend the next two hours on DL looking for a laugh and some quality analysis.

My hate for Essendon runs deep, much much deeper than my hate for Collingwood – which is actually really deep itself so that shows you the situation I’m in with Essendon.

Tear them apart Maggies.

 

Maggots umpiring both their most favoured clubs. Made them confused  and making horrible decisions for both sides. 


Pendlebury is the best captain in the AFL. Never makes a bad decision with ball in hand and directs the Pies midfield extremely well. 

Horrific umpiring in what was a good contest. Even the last shot at goal, free kick paid with 1.05 left and doesn't start his approach until there is only 28 seconds left.

Jeremy Howe is a better player than Jake Lever.

 

How feral are the Essendon supporters. Good on Buckley for subtly pointing out their poor sportsmanship.

Colonwood scored 2 goals after quarter time. 2 to 7 and fell over the line.  Sounds like the demons somewhat...

Geez the bombers fans went nuts, I think it was more frustration about the umpiring, just on that the umpiring this year has made our great game unwatchable, I have gone from watching most games to watching none as it just frustrates me

Unlike our crew!

Dylan Shiel makes Cale Morton look very brave!

They are full of it, hope they don't ever win a flag again. ?

Buckley was brilliant in reminding bogan scum not to be bogan scum. But they won't get it.

Geelong and Bulldogs say hi.

I side with the druggies supporters for the first time ever.   The umpiring was terrible, they gifted Collingwood the game.

Buckley is pretty switched on and great to listen to when he talks footy and also delicate topics.

That’s what I thought too. Bombers fans were ultra pist about the pathetic umpiring decisions that most definitely snuffed out any chance they had of winning. 

Unfortunately Pendles copped it. Wouldn’t have mattered which Pies player won the medal they all would’ve been canned and booed. 

 

Much ado about nothing, as usual.

The guy was best on ground easily, has nothing to do with umpiring. Since when did we start booing winners, seriously. F off Essendon. Geelong do it on a weekly basis to, even to their own, so un-Australian.

It will be interesting to see what happens to Ablett in the next game away from Geelong.

  • GAMEDAY: Fremantle

    It’s Game Day, and the Demons return to the MCG wounded, undermanned and desperate. Still searching for their first win of the season, Melbourne faces a daunting task against the Fremantle Dockers. With key pillars missing at both ends of the ground, the Dees must find a way to rise above the adversity and ignite their season before it slips way beyond reach. Will today be the spark that turns it all around, or are we staring down the barrel of a 0–6 start?

  • PREVIEW: Fremantle

    A month is a long time in AFL football. The proof of this is in the current state of the two teams contesting against each other early this Saturday afternoon at the MCG. It’s hard to fathom that when Melbourne and Fremantle kicked off the 2025 season, the former looked like being a major player in this year’s competition after it came close to beating one of the favourites in the GWS Giants while the latter was smashed by Geelong to the tune of 78 points and looked like rubbish. Fast forward to today and the Demons are low on confidence and appear panic stricken as their winless streak heads towards an even half dozen and pressure mounts on the coach and team leadership.  Meanwhile, the Dockers have recovered their composure and now sit in the top eight. They are definitely on the up and up and look most likely winners this weekend against a team which they have recently dominated and which struggles to find enough passages to the goals to trouble the scorers. And with that, Fremantle will head to the MCG, feeling very good about itself after demolishing Richmond in the Barossa Valley with Josh Treacy coming off a six goal haul and facing up to a Melbourne defence already without Jake Lever and a shaky Steven May needing to pass a fitness test just to make it onto the field of play.

  • NON-MFC: Round 06

    The Easter Round kicks off in style with a Thursday night showdown between Brisbane and Collingwood, as both sides look to solidify their spots inside the Top 4 early in the season. Good Friday brings a double-header, with Carlton out to claim consecutive wins when they face the struggling Kangaroos, while later that night the Eagles host the Bombers in Perth, still chasing their first victory of the year. Saturday features another marquee clash as the resurgent Crows look to rebound from back-to-back losses against a formidable GWS outfit. That evening, all eyes will be on Marvel Stadium where Damien Hardwick returns to face his old side—the Tigers—coaching the Suns at a ground he's never hidden his disdain for. Sunday offers two crucial contests where the prize is keeping touch with the Top 8. First, Sydney and Port Adelaide go head-to-head, followed by a fierce battle between the Bulldogs and the Saints. Then, Easter Monday delivers the traditional clash between two bitter rivals, both desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top end of the ladder. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • 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.
