Despite the result I thought that was a good game to watch. If we want to play finals we shouldn’t be hoping results go our way, just keep winning and then other results mean nothing.

100 percent we are much better than both those teams was enjoyable to watch. I am liking this footy frenzy. Much more enjoyable than recent seasons

    Yeah I mean if we’re to make finals we need to jump the teams like Collingwood and GWS by beating them. They’re the teams we should be rooting against. 
     

    Hoping Essendon lose is pointless because we’ll jump them anyway if we keep winning

    I mean as much as I wanted to see Essendon lose for our sake I kind of wanted to see Essendon lose for the sake of seeing Essendon lose.

    Did someone this doesn’t help us? If the cheats won then they would be 4 points in front of us. 
    i have no idea how the cheats let them subs back into the game. They had it sewn up. 
    bombers are going nowhere. We should beat them comfortably 

    I didn't see any of the game last ngiht but just watched the last 2 minutes of the afl site. Gee the suns had there chances in that time. King could have maybe taken more time to have his shot and probably should have kciked it.

    Rankine how he did not kick that to the top of the square I will never know. It just had to get there to be pounched through. But that was a good smother by McGrath at the end there because that ellis kick was probably going to at least get a point. 

    On one hand I was happy to at least the bummers not win but on the other hand they still got 2 points. Hopefully the saints rolll them on sunday

    Rankine needs to be more for GC and less for Rankine. Two examples so far. Last night and a few weeks ago.

    Very surprised that Rankine didn't try and kick a torpedo punt with a ring of Suns players if front of the pack to mark a mis-kick; from torp's they normally fall quite short.

    Holy [censored].. GWS dropping this game and by a big percentage means that this game is a HUGE must win game.

    Its simple, we beat Collingwood, we go to 8th spot.

    C'mon Dees let's dare to dream!

    • 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.
