Riewoldt’s top three hand ballers:

Libba

Butters

Neale

Libba worthy number one but if Oliver isn’t number two I’ll go jump.

    What's wrong with Taylor????

    The rule the ball needs to be touched from a kick in before going out of bounds changed last season with the introduction of the larger kick in zone.

    He made the same mistake early last year, the man's senile, doesn't do his homework, dumb or all 3....

    Brisbane paid a lot to get Daniher but I also wonder tonight if they realise how much Stef Martin would have helped against Grundy. I know you can't predict when your ruckman get injured but not having the big O out there has hurt them big time. 

    Hipwood needs to lift big time.

    Take that Collingwood! I'm concerned I might have enjoyed that as much as a Dees win.

    Pies on the wrong end of Bears karma from last week.

    Geelong deserve to lose a seasons worth of games that way.

    The only thing better than thrashing Colonwood is beating them after the siren - better still if it is controversial.

    Collingwood losing by a point after the siren is the next best thing to a Melbourne win. What a great night!

    Yipee!  How beautiful was that.

    Outside of Pendles and Sidebottom, who had a bit of a mare tonight (for his usual standard).  Degoey always a threat, Grundy super competitive, Moore as well if allowed to run off.  Daicos starting to look dangerous but IMHO pretty pedestrian outside of the above and the rest are flattered by them.

    Rich was superb in that final quarter or so.

    • 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.
