Christ is that still happening? I’m always on Foxtel so luckily can avoid that. 

channel 7 think BT is the reason people tune in

I wonder how much the ratings drop when that absurd, cringeworthy roaming bit starts?  If I hold on that long, it is definitely time to turn off.

    A draw between Cats and Tigers would be nice - makes it a little harder for either feline to make top 4. 😼

    Very wary of either team in the top 4 for finals.

    Who are people tipping today?

    Blues missing 8 best 22 players but still have their 4 stars playing…

    If Freo keep their defensive structure they should win I reckon

    I like when Essendon lose.

    It's a pity Essendon, WC, the Dogs and Hawthorn couldn't all lose last night. What a horrible collection of teams.

    How can anyone take this guy seriously?

    Honestly, I respect him like I respect Brayshaw wearing a helmet. If you listened to his story. He almost became blind in both eyes from fingers in eyes on the footy field. And another one would make him blind. Wearing glasses means his able to play afl, despite all the flack that people who don't understand give him.

    I do love this alternate reality we are living in where, we are the well run club, littered with All Australians going for back-to-back flags and Essendon are a laughing stock. Long May it last

    Blues have an uncanny way of transitional ball movement..

    Still love how so many Bomber fans think Hird is the answer.

    Fell asleep at halftime and had the best sleep ever…now greeted by a great wake up. When was the last time the Eagles kicked 100+?

    I was just about to type the exact same thing, but thought quoting you would suffice. But I want icing on the cake.

    I want us to win the flag, North to win a couple, Cats to go straight out of the finals with 2 losses, Tiges to finish ninth, and the Bombers get the Wooden Spoon.

    I have indeed read his story and do sympathise with him. 
    I was referring to this particular pic.

    The thing they forget is they sacked him after he came back from the supplements stuff. 

    But I saw this on twitter and it gave me a laugh

    I find all 3 games today hard to tip. Freo should win but it is over here. Not a clue about geel and rich and who cares anyway.  Sydney you would think but St Kilda are close to the most schizophrenic side in the competition. Don't know what you will get out of them.

    I’ve gone 

    Carlton

    Cats

    Swans

    Crows

    GWS 

    Port

    No real justification for any of these results, just a gut feel. If anything I think teams are finding out that being switched on every game is more difficult than it sounds. I tipped the Eagles last night which has paid off.

    Somehow Richmond get to play an ‘away’ game today at their own home ground against a team with a publicly funded stadium 50 minutes away?

    Why is Chris Scott not whinging about this like he does every year about finals? This is why I hate Geelong. They constantly get it both ways, and complain about it only when it doesn’t suit them.

    Collingwood often gets criticised for how many games it plays at the G each year, but clubs continually request to play them there because of the crowd they bring.

    20+ years of being hopeless appears to have turned Carlton supporters into insufferable, foam at the mouth flogs. I hope they get pumped today.

    Schizophrenic was mentioned above. What is my diagnosis please?  I want Horethorn, Filth, Essendrugs, Jeelog all to finish 18th.  Happy for Bunt Road to finish 9th.

    • 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?
