Another awful Birch effort gives up a goal. Mids need to lift big time here 

 

Mids are terrible defensively. Leaving huge holes in the corridor.

 

I swear they've invented new rules here.


Goldrick is a classic lol…always on Go.

Getting the ball into the forward line quickly helps with scoring opportunities. 

Some of our defence is a little loose.

A few to many handballs to players under pressure. 

this is a decent game. good passages of play from both teams

Freo have had the better of it around the ball but if we can win our fair share of it we have the forwards to win it.

its the gaelic way

Mithen's field kicking has been excellent today. She's nailed a couple of corridor kicks

That was a gorgeous passage of play until the Bannon dropped mark. One the best I’ve ever seen from the girls

How does an umpire genuinely call that a free?

It was, but she so consistently tries to take on tacklers and drops her head, sometimes the umps are going to punish it

She did neither.

She moved in to the tackle/to ground rather than disposing of it. It’s a vibe thing. Still an awful decisions 

Umpiring has managed to get even worse. 


Since when do you get to take a down field that goes out on the full from the pocket?

As I said, they're creating new rules.

Great mark Kate Hore

If that was mens football, she was seeing stars and knocked completely out. Went back with no sense of fear. It’s just lucky the girl coming the other way lost sight of the ball and didn’t jump

  • 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.
