Mumford is a total liability in this game. All starting from him being thrashed.

    nah ... I'm pretty sure we hold that.

    I think we even broke our own record

    Would be nice to lose that record though

    Port Adelaide hold the record for the greatest losing margin in a GF

    We were relieved of the honour in 2007:

     

    Geelong   5.7 11.13 18.17 24.19 163 Sat 29-Sep-2007 2:30 PM Att: 97,302 Venue: M.C.G.
    Port Adelaide   2.2   4.3   5.5   6.8 44 Geelong won by 119 pts

    Umpiring is ridiculouslyone sided.

    Terrible game.

    Agree, but so is the Tiger dominance.

    Imagine the conversation between Goody and Richardson.

    Richo, I want you to concentrate on..... Actually forget that because we dont know your role yet.

    get the fat lady to sing now....

    She sung before the game, I believe she was called ‘Tones and I’. Played as bad as GWS.

    She always sounds that bad.

    First time I’ve heard them, it was terrible. You can’t call that singing.

    How good has this first gamer been?

    Inspired decision to play him.  Cool as a cucumber

    An embarrassment of riches at Tigerland.  They could win 1 or 2 more with this group.

    She’s a solo artist that goes by the name Tones and I? Such odd times we live in.

    people here say "brand" and "culture" doesn't mean anything. tell that to Hardwick. Rebranded this team, new coaching team, brought everyone together.

    This is going to get ugly ... like 2007 grand final ugly

    With the emergence of Pickett & returns of Rance, Stak & Higgins all to come back into their side next year we could be seeing another Hawthorn-like dominance from the Tigers over the next couple of years unfortunately.

    Well at least we know what we need to aspire to in terms of ambition (not necessarily copying their game style)

    2nd & 3rd efforts are 2nd to none.  GWS have been completely dismantled.

    Melbourne would be more competitive than GWS today. 

    What a shitshow this is turning out to be.

    • 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.
