I see the Hawks have gone all out with their Anzac Day guernsey design. 🙃

The Swans have 'outdone' them. 

Nothing!  Not even the Anzac badge on their jumpers and they are the hosts.  Very poor by the Swans, I reckon.

    Thanks, I'll correct the post.  Still think it is poor by the Swans to not get into the spirit of the occasion.

    Their was a few second footage shown of Paddy Mc talking with a medico in the rooms and he had his hands out in a pleading gesture.  The medico seemed to just walk away while he was in mid sentence. 

    I suspect there was a more to the discussion and it isn't possible to know what required her attention but I felt it was a time he needed a bit of TLC.

    When Swans get Papley back it will be a final five side methinks.

    very unlike Swans, they are normally on the ball with the occasion, not sure what happened today.

    Swans are a seriously good side though, not many weaknesses and a lot of medium-size firepower, I think will be the main challenger to us. Hope Paddy Macartin is ok, he certainly didn't look happy in the rooms

    Hawks hitting the wall in the fourth quarter.

    They have a five day break into our game against them on Saturday...

    Talk about capitulation. Hope we inflict a long overdue thrashing on them noon Saturday

    Why isn’t CJ playing for the hawks in this game? COVID? Injured? I missed that.

    Listed as injured along with Mitch Lewis. If CJ does play I reckon you move Hunt into the forward line to tag him.

    • 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?
