One of my pre season punts was on Norf to have the least wins in the comp.

Round about way of saying ‘wooden spooners’?

    so hard to watch, even with fox commentary turned off

    We still have WCE and GCS to take it to a lower standard.

    actually not a bad crowd, but I reckon nth fans would have thought they'd win. Noble was not happy in the box. 


    Kelli Underwood is the worst commentator by the length of the flemington straight

    I know round one is always rusty with skills especially when the weather is hot or humid, but my god skills so far this round have been subpar. We stand out significantly with our skills.

    Gee, Mundy's still a quality player. Could give 400 games a nudge if he wants to play on next year and if his form holds up.

    Watching the Hawthorn and North game reminder me so much of 2009 Melbourne when we would battle other bottom 4 teams.

    Game littered with skill errors, but was fast and exciting at times.

    Agree hence why I listen to the radio when she commentates

    Can't watch Freo and Adelaide. Kelli Underwood spoils it for me. Kelli is a commentator at best not a game caller.

    Kelli can tell you where the players were born but not where the ball is.

    Since when does it mean the Adelaide side is playing the corridor when clearly the are kicking it along the wing 

    Since when do Adelaide" open their account "by kicking their second goal

    I reckon BT has his name permanently etched on the "Worst Commentator " award!

    This will be a demolition, especially if Freo continue to kick straight. 
    Adelaide are woeful.

    I just don't get the appeal. It is such a terrible "song". 

    Freo got on the cans at halftime 

    21 frees to 9 Crows way. That's a fair leg up.

    Freo can't kick straight.  It'll cost them

    Lobb's ball drop is atrocious for a forward, or any player for that matter.

    • 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?
