Only watched the last quarter but looked a drab game 

The last quarter was riveting compared to the first three!

    We sure have a lot of trophy and medal games these days.

    I didn’t stick around to watch the presentation. What were they playing for? The ‘At least we aren’t North Melbourne’ cup?

    It's the Trevor Barker-EJ Whitten cup this one. Not the worst touch I guess

    BT is a joke 

    He took stupidity to another level when he said that the Bulldogs were having a "mini onslaught".

    That West player (Rylee... FFS) looks like he has an adult head superimposed on a 15 year old body.

    Interesting that the free kick Bulldogs rule was in full force. Worst incident was Bontempelli getting caught and simply dropping the ball ... nothing to see hear, move on. And Hodge saying that was OK. Players like Bontempelli get away with murder.

    Saints are terrible. Players like Zac Jones, Crouch, Higgins were terrible recruits. Even Steele has regressed .... no longer an A grader.

    His pump up for St Kilda 28 points down with 7 mins left and picking out random people in the crowd he thought were nervous was embarrassing.

    St Kilda really comes down to Ryder for me, when he plays and plays well then everyone else looks great. Without him their midfield is a dump.

    Higgins was crap tonight.

    Need to target Max King when out of contract. His talent being wasted there. 

    Not until we get a goal kicking coach.

    Or the Tassie Saints

    We were spoilt with the technically brilliant Bruce and Dennis of the 2012-2016 era.

    The love in for Bailey Smith was at full power last night. I just don’t get what’s so spectacular about him? He gets lots of handball receives, runs on to his right, then proceeds to kick it to either no one or straight to the opposition.

    Damn shame the bulldogs won.  Lose and there was no chance of making the 8 and they could pack up shop.

    Now there is some hope of finals for them, they will come out all guns firing next week against us.  Like Geelong they will have revenge on their mind and throw everything at us.

    Have to agree, he was very average but he's now he's just crap and injecting himself too much in it eg. Harping on so much about how he liked the footrace from Pickett. 

    Was thinking the other day how much I miss Dennis.

    Can't believe I am saying this but I want Blues to beat Cats.

    Also obviously we want Swans to be at Dockers.

    I would be happy to play our first final at the G against Cats, Blues, Lions or Pies as that would give us our best chance of being in the PF at the G.

    Well this is a tough one.

    For the optimists you want Carlton and the Swans to win.

    For the others it's the reverse.

    It's going to be a nerve wracking weekend

    PS wins by Adelaide and the Giants would be nice but unlikely

    Redleg you have just outed yourself as an optimist according to Diamond_Jim.  I'm bewildered, so I am just going to hope they all beat the living daylights out of each other.

    Being called an optimist is strange, as I am pessimistic about our game against Port. Port are basically at full strength and in good form, while we are not in great form and missing 60% of our goal to goal line, including our best player.

    • 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.
