This commentary stinks. Too much talking about Lever getting hit in the moosh and not enough calling the crucial contest in the back 50.

Weideman and Kosi inexcusable goal kicking. 

Kozzie needs to fix his run up.

Weid inexcusable, he's lost me.


Outdid their great first half with a great quarter. We've got the hunger, as long as we take our chances I'll back us in here.

Huge quarter. Major lift in the middle and as a result we had far more forward half ball. Brings our forward into play and nullifies them. 

But those three bad misses (TMac, Weid and Pickett) could come back to bite us. 

At least now we know we can match them. Game on. 

Great response we have all the momentum. Lions look flat. Out of legs? 
 

Need to come out firing in the 4th with immense pressure in the contest and stoppages. 
 

How does Kozzy miss that set shot. His routine looks out of whack.

They are shocking. Every bloody week. 

Lyons tried to beat 3 players and dropped it cold 

umps are farrrrkn crap 

Great quarter but in all past years the Lions would lift and run over us here by 4 goals 

let’s see if we’re different 


Great quarter Dees.

Now, does our fitness let us run away Q4?

Weid playing for his spot in the last. Need 2-3 goals

4 to 10 (Brisbane’s way) centre clearances and 14 to 22 (Brisbane’s way) clearances.

That’s the issue right there.

We evened up clearances a fair bit that quarter, no surprise we played so well.

I reckon we are fitter


May on Daniher and Harmes of Neale much better match ups.

They've only lost 4 last quarters all year.

Brisbane are going to give their all in the last, they have a never say die attitude. Hopefully we are bringing in our "learnings" from the Adelaide game. 

Set shots inside 40m please. Should be 90% efficiency, not 50%. We should be 2 goals up on that quarters hard work. And suspect we will need a lead as their big forwards will come back into play towards the end.

For a key fwd that hardly gets near the ball you’d like to think he’d be crisp around goal.

Kozzie just needs not to lean back on the kick, push body weight forward, simples.

  • 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.
