Why don’t they say what has happened to Tomlinson? 

Emergency for seniors in event of last minute injury

    Not injured according to the commentators. Simply managed time - for whatever reason.

    Ok that’s good. He is probably the emergency tonight. Hopefully doesn’t mean we have another defender under an injury cloud.

    Is dissent not paid in the VFL?

    That's what I've noticed, and isn't the game better for it.

    van Roo has some wheels

    Obviously no comparison on ability ( yet ) but he bears a very strong resemblance to a young David Schwartz

    Interesting. Every goalkicker has a surname that starts with the letter M.

    Well unless May kicks a ton tonight, we’re in trouble 😬

    Rosman can be anything

    Clearly showing this year that he’s a cut above. Just needs to back his size….more physicality at/in the contest. Otherwise got it all. Exciting. Taj and the Dutch also showing everything they should.

    I don't mind the intent of the rule at all.

    It's the application that concerns/irritates/confuses me!

    Is Rosman the longest kick at the club? If not, who’s longer?

    On Gus &Gawny podcast they named him as one of the longest kicks. Convo about who did the best torps, and Rosman called out for being able to drop punt torp distance.

    Laurie with the obligatory awful haircut that seems to be a necessary but not sufficient condition for senior selection 

     

    ...And a great goal to back it up 😀

    Looking at the crowd postioning they seem to have closed off a lot of the ground. No one in the Grandstand ?

    Before the game they did gather around it nervously and poked it with crowbars & tyre jacks. Someone threw a ciggie lighter at it and they all took fright and retreated to the more open spaces.

    Fantastic play by tmac breaking the contest and kicking to space in front of JVR who converts very nicely. Casey up 88 to 57.

    • 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.
