FWIW I like the look of 20 year old Casey player Luca Goonan. Skilled, tough and strong as a bull. Worth keeping an eye on.

    Pure poetry - and you guys down at the game have performed brilliantly on your mobile devices for all of us stuck in 'cannot get to the game' mode. Looking forward to the next match in an hour or so - Foxtel is working and it is already set up to record the game at the 'G.

    Joel Smith knee injury. “Maybe a medial”. Poor fella can’t take a trick.

    How is VDB going?

    Just gave away 100 metre penalty. In and out of the game. Engine room player doing the grunt work around the ground.

    Nek minnut, Brown crumbs off the ground, 360 spin and shot on goal! Only spoiled by being slightly offline.

    In all seriousness, I think he has an awkward look at the best of time. He, Weid & Bedford all look ready imo.

    Nek minnet after that does a fresh airy trying to handball the ball.

    Hopefully he never plays another game in the seniors. Tough as nails and gives his all but is just not smart or disciplined.

    Bit of Tom Hawkins there from Wiedeman just pushing his ruck opponent off and collecting the ball, then through for a goal.

    Wied is an absolute lock for AFL next week.

    Game seems to be petering out

    Lots of boundary line play

    Skill levels dropping off due to tiredness perhaps.

    Hardly a breath of wind and the sun has disappeared

    100-54

    Another goal to the Hawks 106 to 60.

    Coach asked for four quarter effort. He got three

    Yes, 5 goals to 1 in the last quarter...

    So Weideman is a lock for next week. 
    Makes the possible loss of Fritsch for another week less difficult.

    OMG Toby Bedford moves well. AFL bound.

    Great attack and aggression at the player and the ball. Suddenly we almost have an embarrassment of small forward riches. Chandler also good but not at same level today

    Weed = 7 as stay home forward. That translates as one more week for BB, and Weed promoted next week.

    Very hard to line up VFL form but Weideman Bedford Daw all look good. And Jettas response to being dropped is what you want to see. Brown looks like he need another run.

    Off to Foxtel for the big game. Thanks again folks - proud to belong, so to speak - so many DL contributors keeping others nof able to sync with the game - doing such pleasing things. We were updated, informed, happy. This dual-team MFC/Casey association has immense benefits for our future hopes. Great effort.

    Disagree on Daw, he looked like an average VFL player,

    • 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.
