Can a game against our long time traditional rivals breathe some life into this team?

If this can't. ..then nothing.

Just want to see a4/4 effort today. Be novel.

    A win today and a Tigers win over Carlton will obliterate any remaining Collingwood top 4 chances. I'd love to see that smug club bundled out first week.

    Tbh i have been wanting the season to finish just after the bye round. 

    Any enjoyment i had in footy has been sucked out of me due to the way the team has played which has been very frustrating and disappointing. 

    On to 2020.

    What is the lowest ever crowd for Melb v Collingwood? We will be setting a new record today. It is one of the ugliest, coldest mornings I can remember

    I’d say the opposite. We are horrid in the rain and would much rather a dry day.

     

    If Goodwin didn't learn anything from watching Hawks vs Giants last night, then he is stubborn and should stand down today

    Master coach completely outclassed and out coached rookie coach

    And! It all started above the shoulders on Tuesday!

    Anyone have a suggestion on how to watch from USA?

    AFL app

    It'll cost you though


    Can we just have 1 decent thing happen to us this season. A win today would be beneficial.

    A relative question no matter where you’re based in the world right now.

    Have we had one single win this year that we’ve been proud of?

    Today would certainly be one of them.

    Lets just win and stuff up collingwoods top 4 chances

    Even if Collingwood win all 3 games I’ve got them missing the top 4.

    which part of the g will have dees supporters and maybe some shelter from the rain? nothing else on, so may as well go see sink some beers

    Beating Collingwoods VFL side would be a good win?

    The end of the season can’t come soon enough. This run of 3 games at the G should’ve been huge for our exposure and finances and building momentum for our finals campaign. Instead it’s highlighting how low we’ve sunk this year. We’re looking at record low crowds today. Biggest waste of a season in decades.

    Probably not. Was thinking yesterday that our post bye performance has been more disappointing than our pre bye games.

    As they say there's always next year but it's starting to wear very thin

    Yep so sad. 

    I wanted to go but this weather is horrid and I don’t want to sit in freezing temperatures and risk getting sick before I head off overseas. 

    Honestly it doesn’t seem worth it and I feel guilty because I know how much these games mean to the club financially. But we have done nothing as a club this season to deserve blind support from our fans.

    A few might turn up to the MCC.....  

    Maybe.

     

    To think this was going to be one of our big money spinners this year until the team [censored] everything up.

    We will all be at the G today, supporting the footy club and barracking as loud as usual. It will be bloody freezing and raining, but life is short, so suck it up and see the positives. GO DEES!

    • 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.
