    West Coast are a rabble who will want to finish bottom of the ladder to finally get a number one draft pick (have they ever had one?). 

    Not for a long time, binny.

    Drew Banfield in 1992 and Michael Gardiner in 1996 are their only number one draft picks.

    I also wondered about that DZ. Do you know what the story with him is?

    I have no idea  ‘Uncle’,  surprised to see him as the sub, maybe a fitness issue? Seems the Eagles have been hit carder with covid than freo, perhaps they’ve struggled to get a full squad training together since Jan.

    I’m not sure but I think this is the first time there’s been three Riolis in the same match. 
    I wish BT would let us know. 🙄

    Optus Stadium is half empty. What a bunch of fair weather glory hunters their supporter base is. Not something we could ever be accused of thankfully. Win or lose we don't turn up.

    Seems you can indicate to the ump a ball was touched without penalty but not that it hit the ground

    I hope Dogga is watching. It’s enough to make him sign on for us for another 10 years.

    What a pale, lifeless, lethargic game of footy. WCE are trotting around and the Tiges are winning 90% of one-on-one contests without much effort.

    Wonder how many of the WC crowd will have jumped ship to their newly adopted second team come round 9.

    The Telstra ad that starts with footage of Jack Viney as the siren sounds and we win the Premiership is the greatest commercial ever made. I absolutely loathe Telstra, but I love seeing that.

    Also, tonight’s game is garbage, so it’s nice to see what a real footballer looks like.

    I think the tigers are the worst side we have played all year but look what they are doing to west coast. Pathetic performance.

    Parish should have gone too.

    Its laughable that there was this equivalence being made to Oliver as there were pick 4 and 5. There’s a reason Mahoney got to that pick.

    Didnt want to get stuck with Darcy…

    Agree.

     

    Great thing is, Parish was your typical Melbourne selection, thankfully our club has changed and we picked Oliver

    • 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.
