I hate it when we are favourites.....

Get used to it WWS. We have been underrated coming into the season. We will be favourites for probably 6 of the next 8 games all going well

    Time for the club to put this mentality to bed once and for all

    Agree, the club is going to get plenty of chances this season to play in must win matches and this is one of them. No excuses we just have to win this week.

    Yep, that is why we need to be 8-2 if we are serious this year. After Tigers we have an easy run

    I hear you. However after the bulldogs pratice match, our injuries and skill errors against freo....Im happy to believe we are in finals contention at all.

    I know this may not sound too positive but if beat gws then I think we may make finals.

    If we beat cats as well then i know we will.

    Things are looking a lot more interesting with Tmac and Salem of old. Anb and Spargo much improved. Jones played well. New talent in Jordan, kozzie and Jackson.

    Viney free from injury and Oliver and Trac and Langdon reaching new heights.

    Despite a few dropped marks I still think our backline is one of the best now being led by Tomlison of all defenders.

    Yeah, I dunno wsw.  I've always found such juvenile nicknames (eg. Port Adelaide Pear, West Coke, Essendrug etc) really tedious and childish.  It's the sort of thing you'd expect from the immature teens on BigFooty.

    Oh! 100% - it makes no sense to me, it was one of the weirdest things I noticed when I first joined this forum. Do these people actually talk like this when they are discussing football at the pub? Because, that would just be weird.

    • 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.
