Buddy Franklin into the rooms.

I would have liked to give that a like but it's really poor form. I really hope he's OK....after he has a good rest and does not play in  the first final.

    Why does Membrey only play well against us?

    Flaw in colour recognition programming red and blue go, red and whiteout?

    I thought Carlton have been underated.

    They gave us a good run for our money.

    They are like us in that they can dominate the contested  ball and score really quick.

    There's every chance. Both losing at the moment

    I know. Sydney will get it done. I can’t see how they lose to Saints. They are a class above.

    Incorrect. AFL want Pies to win the flag. I don’t want to meet them in week one.

    Pies peaked early in the year

     they don’t have the legs to make a dent In Finals or win this game

    They don't play well at Marvel for some reason. Were terrible in losses to the Dogs and Essendon there this year and were unconvincing in a win v North. I won't be surprised if they lose

    Collingwood is an awful matchup for us. Swans aren't much better, but I don't want to be anywhere near the Pies in this finals series.

    There's something happening here
    What it is ain't exactly clear
    There's a Ump with a whistle over there
    Telling me I got to beware
    Hey stop , what's that sound
    Everybody look the Pies are down
    And Doggie supporters are crying now.

    For bugger all impact. Multiple kicks of his smothered too. When the whips are cracking he just doesn’t stand up. Doesn’t offer much onfield direction either. Not a great captain IMO. 

    He is winning the game for them by himself.  Are you actually watching ?

    If the Swans win we won’t.

    • 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.
