This Collingwood documentary is really interesting. 

Cant wait to hear more stories about the 58 premiership in the next qtr

 

Umps are horrible but Jesus we are atrocious. No skills. No game plan. Soft. Just rubbish. 
Clearly learnt nothing from last week.

Another undisciplined act. Pure stupidity. We have learnt nothing.

I'd like to say that we need to see a replay to determine how stupid it was, but Vanders shouldn't even put the umps in a position to reverse it.  Just talk some trash and leave it at that.

So glad we dropped Oscar. Backline is getting destroyed. 

Again with a balance-disrupting selection error.

 

Nothing positive about that quarter at all.

Getting smoked by this umpire.

    What just happened?

    AVB blatant shove of player on the ground to taunt them for giving away free - it was stupid 

    AVB must be concussed from earlier head clash

    Umpiring has been terrible, but we haven't been great either. The crows have been a lot more direct with their F50 entries, and as usual we are just bombing it in. Mind you, this is against a team who is, as of right now, winless in 2020.

    I'm torn. I would have loved us to come out firing, and belt these guys, but that wouldn't mean anything, because it would prove us to be only able to win against the easybeats. 

    But as it stands, we've been pretty bog ordinary tonight so far.

    Didn't think you could pay a free kick after the siren... [censored] umpiring getting flogged there 

    You can't. Yellow carntes

    Have i ever mentioned I don't think we are very good kicks of the football?


    King “good call by the umpire, this is the stuff we need to get out of the game”.

    Vanders pushes a Crows player in the back when we was on the ground after the free had been given as a “[censored] you”.

    Well we are not looking very good against the worst side in the competitions Reserves side. Who is getting their hands on the ball?

    Can we try something different when kicking out after a behind? No creativity or dare whatsoever - might as well just give them the ball back

    This umpiring is un [censored] believable

    Agree, continues to be inconsistent and terrible.

    But i don't blame the umpires overall. We are just soft.

    Mate don't worry about it. We're going no where


     

    I wonder if they will pay soft [censored] free kicks like that all night... Doubt it

    • 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.

      Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?
