Not attacking Whitfield letting them go clear for a goal and forwards not taking the right options. Hoping j for a better second half

    Same role as TMacs.

    Oliver needs a rocket. Going half paced at man and has been sloppy with disposal. 

    Needs to impact in the middle, they've been killing us through there. 

    He's playing like he thinks he's god's gift. 

    Get back to hard basics Clarry and what you've built your reputation on.

    Some selfish play there tonight by a few of our boys cost a couple of better shots on goals.

    Watching the game with my father in law who follows the dogs, bloody infuriating as he continually claims more frees should be paid against us and claims none of ours should be paid 😒

    What's her gender got do with anything?

    I agree. ‘They’ are an absolute disgrace as an umpire and have zero game sense. Some of their decisions in that quarter were just in complete disregard for the way the game is played.

    Not sure we can blame the umpires for our poor forward entries and getting murdered around clearances.

    Thank god we have the greatest ever backline.

    100%.
    They held the joint together for much of last year as well.

    Stats wise he’s been pretty quiet but I thought his attack at the footy was ok…..would like to see the footy stick In his hands though!

    Three  goals from umpires

    I came here just to see if I was imagining the umpires turning the game. No, they are that bad. Keeping it close for primetime TV, or just useless.

    Sack that woman. She is horrible, if it was a man, I would be saying the same thing. Only pay a free kick if it's obvious. Umpires these days have no feel for the game whatsoever.

    Wonderful

    so you’ll be calling for “sack that man” and proclaiming same next time #amirite

    Yes, but one in particular has made several horrendous decisions, and has a reputation for such

    AFL tokenism she totally destroyed what was a magic moment. Of course no replay or commentary 

    Half time crew on Fox called it out for being a bad call. Not in the spirit of the game. It was worse on replay, Langdon barely made contact.

    Touched (?)

    yes there has been some poor umpiring, but we should still be doing a lot better, if our backline was not as good as it was we could potentially be behind with the number of forward 50 entries. We need to get back to playing team football. Kozzie's selfish attempt at a goal was not a good example. Our best play all day has been when we have played as a team. we need to get back to that. and try not to give the umpires too many excuses to give frees and goals against us.

    Areas we are getting absolutely killed. Clearances, contested possession and inside 50 delivery. Just bombing it long. Our back half are making us look good again. Should be slaughtering them but just can't put à team away.

    She is hopeless. Should be confined to umpiring AFLW only.

    AFLW umpiring standards should be any different to the mens.

    • 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.
