I dont like the shortened game.

With the fake crowd noise why was there a train bleating its siren during second quarter.

    As much as it pains me, Frost has been good. Frawley very good in first qtr.

    Yes I have noticed that. It may not last but so far he has taken a clutch mark and run thru the lines and passed off to nearby player which is what he was doing with us but we don’t need that. But is that partly because we spent so many first round tickets on May and Lever? And then we have issues with turning Smith into a back and let’s face it Weideman should be developed into a kPB if we want to keep him.

    Someone tell me 

    Who does Chris Scott look like with the face fuzz?

    Was thinking Tyrion Lannister.

    Frost has done a couple of good things but gave away 2 goals so overall I’d say an average game

    This game is the first one I've enjoyed this season...

    There have been the skill errors you would expect with the lack of prep but they are prepared to play footy.

    Last night was an abomination.

    Agree. Rich-Coll was a dead end. Dullest game in a long time. This is much better, especially because the poos and wees are going down...down...down. Cop that Jeff!

    Even before Jeff raised his diseased perineum into the wind again this week, there were few non-MFC things in football I enjoyed more than Hawthorn losing by ten goals plus.

    I wonder how long Burgoyne is going to get for the sling tackle. 

    Pity he will probably go for that, but Selwood and Ablett will get away with staging......

    So safe to say we can put a line through Hawthorn. 

    Midfield too small and too slow.

    The master coach went in with a tall defence and got cut up by their medium/small forwards.

    McEvoy isn't a CHB...

    On the good bloke, champion of the game, ball player, didn't know he got rid of the ball rule he will get $1,500.

    If it was Harmes or another of ours , he would get at least a week. Probably 2.

    The staging is pathetic, I didn’t see Selwood’s tonight but Dangerfield’s deserves a week. Toss.

    Selwood antagonised an opponent on the boundary line with an arm around the neck after he had been beaten. He then collapsed like he was shot when given a light jumper tap in retaliation. Not the first time I have seen this from him.

    Rubbish game full of staging, 14mtr passes allowed, holding ball not paid, and revenge free kicks against Burgoine. Like always Cats get away with murder for deliberate out of bounds calls and anything else they can appeal for to disrupt the opposition and then back into the game. It is so predictable and pathetic of drop kick Umpire who cannot bounce or apparently stop players from pirouetting with the ball.

    • 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.
