Has Cameron Ling ever said anything insightful? He's as dull as ditch water

    In NBA terms, that’s a 64- 0 run in the last 42.37 mins. Tigers are cooked.

    Couple of things…. Tigs hahhahahaha, seeing Hardwick after every loss is brilliant.

    Seeing teams go to the fans after a regulation win like they’ve made finals, like we used to until the last few years, makes me feel so good about where we are.

    Momentum is such a massive thing in AFL these days. Even going back to the first game of the year. Not sure why, but whichever team can minimise the damage when the opposition has the momentum will go a long way to winning enough games to make the 8/4/2, then winning the big one.

    I’m sure we will lose a game at some point but geez it’s hard to pick a side that will beat us, maybe Brisbane if the stars align

    It’s like every club is trying to replicate our PF and GF games. Only difference is we done it at the money end of the season. Impossible to keep that style of game going for throughout a season.

    Feels like Josh Kennedy has been around forever. Probably coz he has. One of my fave non-Dees players.

    With Paddy Ryder back, Ben Long who is as tough (and sometimes brutal) as a cats head, and Zak Jones still to come back, the Saints will be ok. Too many soft-ish players at the moment who prefer an outside role. Fix that with some grunt and they could worry a few. I rate Ratten highly, and actually enjoy watching his team play.

    Proven again today.

    What on earth are the blues happy about.? 4 h goals after 1/4 time.

    Wtf.

     

    Blueprint is there for all to see. When they are going full pelt try to keep with the turn over game. When they tire, start landing the blows.

    Long was the sun today and came on early after Higgins was knocked senseless.

    I do not think I have seen a side handball as much as west coke. It's like watching Benny Hill.

    • 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.
