You know here to stick it D.

Was that meant to be "how" or "where", Froggy?

    What you write about the use of rite is quite right.

    No apology required.  I was just being my usual pedantic smart alec.

    I have a reputation to live down to, you know.  :D

    Lord of the Flies? Culture can’t of being that bad at Whitten Oval. Surely! Bevo’s little experiment did go awry.

    Whoever was talking about our forward line needing a player to provide on field coaching / direction (like May in backline) in another thread, you were spot on!  Tim Lamb says Hunter could provide that for us

    I see big upside with this trade. Fills a hole on many levels. I hope Lachie gets back to some of his good footy he produced at the Bulldogs 

    structurally he provides a lot to our midfield

    I think Tim was just taking about his kicking into the forward line and connecting between midfield and forward lines. Not leadership.

    The Rat pack of Libba and Hunter is likely what Dunkley was sick of. He alluded to behavioural issues for several years

    Fingers crossed he has had a wake up call.

    Dunkley said it was culture, but the cash on offer from dogs was laughable. He was more than happy to go.

    I don't think a formal leadership role in any way but he does literally call Hunter an "on field coach"...!

    At  least he looks happy maybe getting away from the WB pressure cooker will help him play his best football again.

    Surronded by multiple AA players and near AA players whilst at the WB he was expected to carry more of the responsibility of leadership.

    I had to look twice. It looked like Mitch Hannan for a sec

    I've often thought that, he's a much better player than Mitch though.

    I've watched most of the Bullies/Swans match earlier this year and he played a very good game, 19 possessions to half time and hardly, if at all, wasted a possession. He kicked two deliveries in the first half that directly resulted in two marks and two goals.

    He's got a lot of talent and will be a great pick up for us, if he puts his mind to it.

    • 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?
