oscar McDonald please! absolutely hopeless. i genuinely believe I have a better skill set than him. He is a vfl player, potentially a vfl reserves player. Must go.

    Apologies if it’s been mentioned already, I noticed Garlett finished the game on the bench with a bandage around his left thigh. Do we know why?

    Because Melbourne is cursed and not a week goes by without someone injuring themselves. Be at the game or drowning in pools.

    He also spent the last 10 minutes of the third quarter of the ground, maybe for other reasons. Fitness?

    Hopefully it’s only that, if his leg was bandaged up during the game I didn’t notice.

    I wouldn't make any changes. Will be slippery up there so won't suit Pruess.

    His thigh was bandaged when he laid the tackle that eventuated in the Lockhart goal, but not in the 3rd qrt when he ran into goal

    I wouldn’t bet on that. Hey, your avatar, is that Kelly Slater pulling out of a wave at Bells last week?

    Garlett cork reported by abc during game

    I’m near Ballina and considering going but I don’t think we should consider this a fait accompli

    Gee being an old bastard I can remember reading about the Wedge in a Surf Magazine when I was about 10 years old and surfing at Scarborough Beach Perth all that summer. Great memories.

    I'm in QLD next week, and potential to get to Metricon

    I've made no arrangements but what's the go with getting in? Assume you just roll up and walk through an unattended gate and take one of the many vacant seats??

    nah... went there thirty odd years ago to watch the Bears play the Dees.. we won...just

    All the empty stands are reserved seating ie, pay more....probably hasn't changed.

    May have changed

    I’m staggered that anybody could suggest that Declan Keilty should be dropped next week ahead of Oscar MacDonald.

    After those pathetic efforts of Oscar that cost us 2 goals in the last quarter, I’m done with him.  The Club burnt Lynden Dunn to get games into Oscar and he looks like being a C Grader at best.

    How many tall forwards do the Suns have?  if we can get away with playing just Frost down there with T Mac as an emergency tall defender , the change is an easy one

     

    In   -   Preuss

    Out - O McDonald

    • 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.
