BT has a point re intercepts vs regular marks. If you just beat your opponent in a marking contest it should be a standard contested mark - not an intercept.

An intercept mark should be if it's kicked by the opposite team and it's not your direct opponent you've marked against, or if it's an uncontested mark.

    Isaac Smith could have been a great - pity - went to the wrong club.

    Got what he deserved, went with $$$ and the wrong notion that Kitty  Litter park was more in Premiership window than DEES.Silly Boy.

    Good luck son playing with Bell Post Hill when you retire with ZERO flags at Kitty Litter Park.

    The intercept mark discussion is inane. BT needs to be pensioned off

    BT still trying to understand what an intercept mark is. 

    can he learn on his own time??

    It’s cringeworthy, he’s spent the last 5 mins trying to belittle his fellow commentators for saying “intercept mark”, not just a mark. Time to hang it up Brian.

    Our best is way above these two, but we are not playing as clean as Cats or Lions so far in 2022. They booth look sharper than us. But, I am not sure either of them will improve much while we have heaps of improvement to gain.

    Both these sides would have scored about 4-5 goals less at this stage of the game against us.

    Any chance Taylor can shut up about intercept marking?

    Pathetic succession planning by channel 7 that BT is their premier caller post the retirements of McAvaney and Commetti.

    What’s their next move? Hamish and Basil calling the 2024 GF?

    • 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.
