You watch Richmond will hit some form now.

With 9 changes to their lineup, I somehow doubt it. They might sneak through this week because they’re playing the Swans.

    I honestly feel like we are the confidence building team. Teams comes up against us, the players in the middle give them enough of a tough run to make them compete hard but our skills and decision making is so bad that the other team ends up getting the win. They go on with confidence and play better, while we continue our trajectory of going nowhere.

    You watch Richmond will hit some form now.

    I Understand with all the difficulties of continued continuity at training with them training in groups, but we look like we do truck all skills sessions. 

    It makes you wonder what they do during a pre season all running and no skill work.

    Deeplorable.

    Dawks Vs Filth. The most revolting of matchups. A definite skip.

    Think I will watch the vermins but listen to the dead kennedys bedtime for democracy.

    Do they publish crowd numbers this year.

    I believe the max crowd permitted for Giant stadium is 6,000.

    Should get that easily tonight (Pies v Hawks) I would think.

    Go Pies !! ?

    No they don’t and I don’t know why.

    They had about 10K for the Brisbane v Port game last week and probably about 2K last night for Geelong V Brisbane.

    Mason Cox, who's been playing the game for only a handful of years, is a better kick of the footy than most of our side....

    Looks like Jono Patton has broken down again.  He's in tears on the bench. 

    Sad for him if that's the case, hopefully it's not as serious as they initially think.

    Watching tonight's game at Giants Stadium, does the playing surface look really chopped up?

    We will be playing on a cow paddock tomorrow! Might help us.

    Frawley and Frost doing well. 

    Not having a go but is that sarcastic? I saw Chip twice butcher a 15m kick, and Frost has done his usual dash out of defence to nowhere and hand the ball over.

    Frawley is incredible one dimensional. Beaten in a one-on-one by a good ordinary battler just now. Frost his usual headless chock impression.

    Is it just me... or is the footy just completely uninspired this year - to the point where it feels irrelevant?

    Boring games, no passion, feels like watching training.

    • 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.
