    The venue itself is a great place to watch a match, the crowd is a different story, but this time you get to be the smug premiership winning wnker supporter, how good.

    I agree its a great venue Cards albeit a tad blustery and hard to watch if there's a westerly blowing.  Most of the game played on the Middleborough Road wing/flanks if there is one.

    So are you suggesting we put on all our 'premiers' gear and go!??  I can hear the banter now.... "so you've won one in how bloody long and you now reckon you're hot [censored] huh!?" 😄

    Taj Woewodin came off late in the Casey game after taking a big hit. Hopefully, he’s all right - not included in the Round 7 report above.

    Feel for Smith.  He can't take a trick.  Another medium term injury.  8-10 weeks is huge.

    Smith out for 8-10 weeks, unlucky lad. Had a few too many drinks at the game on Saturday and not sure how it happened.  Can someone clarify?

    Was in the third quarter on the members' wing. He was pushing for a spoil/mark, from memory, landed a bit awkwardly and then reached down for his ankle. That was that, I think.

    Thanks just saw it in the Video Link above. Feel for Joel, out of contract at the end of the season too - poor fella

    Such a shame for J Smith. Was such a trivial incident and can’t believe it resulted in a fracture.

    Tommo is obviously next in line, given that Petty comes back in this week.

    I preferred Joel Smith over Tomlinson as he is quicker and can handle guys on the lead better. Probably makes Jayden Hunt more important because we need someone who can rebound.

    Smith can't take a trick, his body doesn't seem to be capable of playing consistent AFL football. He is always injured. Poor guy.

    I wonder what is going on with Hibbo. Is he done with that calf do we think?

    Death, taxes and Joel Smith breaking down with injury every single year.

    Hibbo looked really good in the practice match against North Jaded, calf injuries seem tricky. Initially it was two weeks and now we’re almost a third of the way through and he’s still struggling with it. Would love to see him back out there even if it’s with Casey.

    It seems to me calf injuries are very tricky when the player in question is over 30. Having said that, I suspect a fully fit Hibberd would struggle to break into this side at the moment anyway.

    joel smith has never played more than four consecutive senior games - and then only once - in six years

    so is it never or only once?

    He's played four games in a row once (Rounds 15-18 in 2020).

    That is the one and only time he has strung more than three games in a row together. He's managed three a few times, including Rounds 1-3 this year.

    I’d say you initially thought you’d keep it to just one or two tins, but then got caught up in a round system with your mates. By half-time there was really no turning back plus - look out - Jono’s just pulled out a cheeky hip flask of Jamesons, fellas…

    • 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.
