    On pure talent and influence who is better than Toby Greene?

    I can think of maybe 4-5 players. If he played 100% midfield would be interesting to see how he would go

    Pure footballler but also has the leap to make him play a little taller.  Strength of an ox.  Hard to push off the ball and often works his opp off the ball himself. Love watching this bloke, apart from when he starts his sniping off the ball.

    Talk about footy smarts and clever forward craft.  Has more talent on one toe than most forwards and more dangerous than most of them as well.  Doesn't miss very often either.

    What a pitty he signed up again (for life!?) with the Greatest Waste of Space.

    Amazing how teams are kicking high scores & we can't do it this season after doing it last season.

    If your tall and small forwards can kick bags and your mids can contribute a few, then it’s not amazing. ATM we don’t have that.

    I would never have though Levi Casboult and Mabiol Chol would be such good pick-ups for the Suns. Either of them would have been a big help for us this year.

    Especially Casboult. He’s been consistently good.

    The top 8 teams that had quietly notched up their Suns game as a win they can think again.

    Big fight on for the last few spots in the 8. 

    Suns play 5 teams below them so will be pushing their case.

    Would be delighted to see them make it especially if it means Pies, Bulldogs and Saints don't.

    Poor Rowell. Just can't take a trick. He just cannot get a full season in. I really hope he isn't one of these players we never see what they will be because of injuries.

    A good win by the suns though

    • 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?
