    Brisbane ruck grabs it in the ruck, takes on a player, tackled, no clean disposal. Play on.

    Jetta has his head ripped off, gets a handball off, "Holding the ball".

    Healey: "And Jetta ducks his head again."

    I'm done.

    Jets goal his head torn off and gets a free against. 

    He leads with his head. It’s his fault

    Get absolutely [censored] umpires ?

    It's frustrating to watch, but I just feel as though we're being rolled by a better side.

    We've had chances that, over the last two weeks, we've taken.  Weid will learn from this and I bet Bennell never misses one like that again, while Kozzie will also learn from not giving that handball to Langdon in the square.

    I'm not disappointed in the endeavour, though.  If we can kick the first then I give us a small sniff.

    Bennell just cannot miss that shot from 15m under no pressure.  we would only have been one goal down.

    Massive game changing error

    For as bad as we've been if we'd taken our chances we'd be right in it.

    Bennel and Weideman had chances to turn it around. Difference between a really good team and one that is just a level below.

    This team kills me, we are so frustrating to watch ?

    My 12 year old sister could kick better than Oliver ffs

    We seriously need someone to teach these professional footballers how to kick straight. They need mental toughness.

    • 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.
