I hear you Dub but I'm not gloating given they beat us only a few weeks ago and how we've been travelling till last week.

Just coz we are rubbish doesn’t mean we can’t take delight in bombers pain. ?

In the days of Ricky Barham flying down the wing and Tommy Hafey as their coach they were my second team.

Carlton could be in for another painful long day. 

Best thing about that is, if Carlton aren't in for a painful day, then with the way expecations are going, Collingwood will have to be in for a long painful day instead.

The perceived mismatch is so great that there is almost a zero-sum game for supporter angst - every moment of relief for Carlton adds an equal amount of frustration for Collingwood.

These first quarters are so low scoring. Yawn...

Why don’t they raise the main broadcast view camera (on center wing) higher so the game is easier to watch on TV?

The perspective is just too flat - makes the game look even more congested than it really is.

Hasn’t improved since Alf Potter’s day. 

Why don’t they ever have one camera focused for sun and one for shade? 

Carlton are looking better?

Think about what your saying Jane......

Free kick count in the Pies game please?


The Blues beating them on the ground and in the air.  Their closing speed is cutting down the Pies and their usual space/time to make good decisions with clean disposal.

Cripps what was that disposal i50...and a fumble arghh

Stats say it was 21 frees each. 

Didn’t watch the whole game to comment, but in general it’s more where they are paid

 

Fantastic pressure Silvagni ...amazing goal Cripps!  Common Blues!

  • 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.
