    Umps ruined it as usual that last htb, my my would be more mental than normal as a port supporter. Tigers defense starting to look really good. Grimes and Vlaustin makes for a very different team.

    Fairly entertaining game with two average mid-table teams

    hitouts 42-18 but Port won the clearances 

    footy is weird

    yeah, too many tiggy touchwood inconsequential free kicks.....ruins the game. it's almost as if the umps are itching to pay as many frees as they can

    Looking forward to a comment from Caroline Wilson in regards to the crowd of 21,000 tonight, in which the home side has the most members in the AFL.

    This is the same Wilson who bagged Melbourne for getting 29,000 against Freo, which was the highest ever crowd between those two sides at the MCG.

    So true, when i watch games i'm not invested in is when i think it really has changed (for the worse)

    I will never believe umpires are corrupt unless factually reported, or that the AFL plays favorites, but I do think they have biases that come out occasionally and i do think there is memo of the week. 

    As for getting consistency I would back the umps to be small teams/crews, that practice together and do match sim with teams in the same crew, they will officiate with to help standardize their decision making. Variations between umpires in game is infuriating.

    Clown 26 - again. Sound familiar?

    I only watched a bit of the game, yet I saw him make at least 6 mistakes and all went Tigers way. Carey was clearly frustrated and said so.

    I think this bloke must be a Tigers’ fan.

    WTF is up with this pre game?

    Are they going to mention 17 years without winning a final?

    and were they all wearing red and blue scarfs?

    desperate attempt at relevance. you ain't a big club anymore folks

    • 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.

    • PREGAME: Essendon

      Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?
