Have only just turned on - love the even handed unbiased umpires allowing at least two Blues showing dissent without 50 meter penalties.  
Gil - anything to say?

[censored] me, I thought Carlton were a chance and tied them into a decent multi.

Early signs suggest they are [censored].

Rinse and Repeat Bitters

    This new Carlton defence is so frightening. 
     

    I laughed when the experts highlighted this new Carlton defending when they beat us. 
    We scored 90 odd points in first gear. 
     

    They’ll need Cripps and McKay to kick 12 between them every week to be a chance. And Cripps can’t even drop it onto his boot straight.

    What a ridiculous 50 against Solti. 

    Richmond's signature last year was playing about 20 minutes of scary Richmond footy but not being able to sustain it for a whole game. Blues are still a chance.

    Has not had 1 contested posession !!outside frontrunner

    Watching Fox Footy feed via Kayo and Nathan Jones is on commentary. Didn’t realize Jonesy was taking up a media career. Good luck to him! Refreshing to hear him and some of his comments. Pittonet hits the post from a metre out “that won’t do ruckman any good” 😆

    To be fair that’s exactly what we would have got him for. He would have played wing. 
     

    Carlton look good.

    • REPORT: Essendon

      What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

    • 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?
