Well thanks a lot Essendon. Given Geelong a percentage of 191% 🤬

    I'm enjoying the last 3 minutes.

    Geelong should have won by a lot more. 38 scoring shots to 17.

    What a miserable day for the bombers. I think it's the worst loss under rutten

    I hate Geelong. Essendon were pathetic which I suppose is a good thing. Luckily I had a siesta during the 2nd and 3rd quarters.

     

    -50 in contested is very bad

    Perfect result. Inflate the cats egos and the medias thoughts on their chances and just absolutely destroy the hype around Essendon. Spectacular work.

    This exactly. Let all the hype be on Geelong. We have been forgotten in the Bevo/Morris controversy. Fine with me.

    What's with these 50m penalties? Geelong player marks ball, Essendon player runs up towards the mark, looks at umpire and obviously gets the impression he went a yard too far so backs off and is pinged for not standing.  Not even clear if the umpire said stand.   Not sure it should be a penalty, let alone 50m.

    I thought they'd stopped playing games at that stadium? Something about the poor surface causing injuries I think.

    Is the stand rule still a thing? I saw at least 4 times where Doggies players moved all over the place standing the mark without being pinged 50!

    We seemed to do it every time!

    Doggies are intentionally standing back from the mark so they can move around as a tactic this year apparently.

    Who cares about percentage? We have to stop having a mindset of worrying about other teams. We need to win and keep winning and percentage will take care of itself.

    Well Sydney worry me. They are scary. 

    Already this game is 1000 times better than the Geelong Essendon game. Both these sides are better than Geelong.

    Great game Swans v Giants. Feels like a final and it's round 1. Brutal tackling, uncompromising, top shelf skills. If I cold steal 2 players it would be Heeney and Tom Green. Love watching them play.

    I just saw someone put on twitter obviously a cats fan is bringing up the drugs saga & an Essendon supporter wrote get over it. Sorry you will always hear about it.

    I'm flicking between the world cup & the footy

    I would have kicked them out of the AFL. Still laugh at their motto for that year. " What ever it takes" One of my nephews gave up following them.

    • REPORT: Adelaide

      The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.

    • CASEY: Coburg

      The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

    • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

      After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
