"And the Melbourne fans are going....."

IIRC it was "And the Melbourne fans are going absolutely....." with nothing else added. Either way it was a carp bit of commentary.

Stood out like dogs thingies at the time.

    You know you've made it when your club is mentioned as a third party to the game that is going on in front of the commentators.

    Cox is an ugly player. 

    Ugly to watch, and ugly of the mind.

    You blokes need to watch the grand final more. The quote was "And the Melbourne fans have gone unbelievably."

    Still wondering where we went, and why it was so unbelievable.

    Cox needs to be rubbed out for these dirty knees in ruck contests. Dog acts that need to be punished.

    Putting this on the table right now, if Cripps doesn't take over this game he loses an AA spot

    This.  Did it to Max, and again today.  [censored] of the highest order and AFL needs to stamp it out.  Most other ruckmen in the league put body on the line and contest, this blokes first thought is knee up.  He is either gutless or just plain dirty...

    Thanks ding , you are correct.

    I forgot the "absolutely" which makes it even worse because it was an adverb of degree creating more expectancy.😃

    You have a good memory.

    They are about half a second off the pace. Not taking the ball cleanly, waiting for the bounce. 
    Curnow can’t kick so far

    • 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.
