Lol, best part of the game was the camera work on Townsend’s shot. Just showing the ball in flight and teasing Ess fans with the accurate kick thinking it was through. Touched an inch out, great theatre.

I checked the scores and found the Blues hanging iron with moments to go, so I turned it on. Watch very little footy this season, but seeing the Bummers stuff up on the death knell despite a pretty strange 50 gave me a rare moment of footy joy.

Blues have I believed had a 1 point loss and two 1 point wins in three rounds .  Heart stopping for their fans.

Essendon's two wins have been by less than a goal

Hope carlton can hang on.       Sick of hearing essendon supporters saying we are undefeated. Just lose. 

Im watching GC V freo. Good game but fyfe off with t hammy is a massive loss. 

I turned it on,  to see the ending of the game,  and then quickly changed channel so I didn't have to hear the song.

 

GC... how are the young ones going,   'd189227' .?

That Eddie Betts 50 metre was a joke

Umpire said it was a “new rule”!!!

That was nuts. 50m from the goal square and they put the man on the mark in the centre circle.

Talk about trying to gift them the game.

That wasn't even 50m. Went for like 80m! Umpires doing everything in their power to wanting Essendon to win.

Again, suck it bombers!

I'm watching with the sound off. I know it's been said to death but Brayshaw, BT and McAveney are all awful in their own unbearable way. 

I watched NRL on friday night just to ear te commentary because its not overstated, smug, nor too smart for itself.  They just enjoy the game and one another;  like we Used to,  be back in the 70's/80's.

How did our commentary get so high brow,  and  "look at me,  look at me"

 

Come on C-7,  ditch these smart Al ex footballers,  and bring in  "Con the Fruiterer".   So we can enjoy the footy once again.   The commentators have never been good,  ever since we have so many Ex Pro players.  and the non ex footy players try hard to be clever to match them.

 

They are all spoiling the game for us as a spectacle.  When the commentators are the spectacle the game is saying, "I can't breath".

 

...  this is another thing in our lives that needs rescuing from big brother,  and big business..

Ha it was sweet to see them lose by a point.

Gee it's so frustrating when you watch melbourne gets all these high draft picks who don't really come along as they should and gc get rowell and watching him tonight he is just awesome and got the game. He kicks goals, is courageous goes in hard and has great disposal. Just give him the rising star now.

If Gold Coast had never existed, Rowell would be in Red and Blue right about now.....

HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today.

Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
