    I just had the abject misfortune of having to use the public toilets at St Albans train station. Despite the ‘vacant’ setting, when I kicked the door open (coz not touching a single surface), I see a guy injecting heroin into his big toe. I says, “sorry bro, didn’t know there was anyone in here.” He says, “all good” then looks up and says, “Go Dees!” 😆

    Tomlinson is having a wander out on the ground. Could he be our medical sub?

    I have no idea what to expect today. But hawthorn seem to get off to a good start & we need to kick accurately. Can't afford to kick like last Sunday night

    It'll be a fascinating demonstration of just how much he wants his 200 game milestone.

    I think " hate" is too strong a word. 

    I don’t know what the right word is then. Singling out one player as the reason we might lose or not want to watch the game seems terribly personal to me. 

    Whatever the right word is, it’s a foreign concept to me and a long way from any emotion I experience or recognise.

    As in, dropping the word “war”???

    I’ve been meaning to change my username coz I’m not comfortable with that word being in my name. Not since the brutal and senseless invasion of 🇺🇦. 
     

    edit: bit slow on the uptake, DD. I just got it. WC. 😆

    Absolutely...need to be a bit more deliberate.  Last week there was some major wastage at goal going on by too many

    No... well there is that but certainly doesn't bother me as such.  I have to live with the war office every day!

    I tried it, it’s picking up my location. I’m about as tech savvy as a pile of stacked house bricks.

    Its $17 US for watchafl.com, looking attractive at this point.

    Final side: No further changes to the Melbourne team. Kade Chandler is the medical substitute.
    Thank Christ for that.

    • 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?
