Freo finishing 4th or 5th last we be a dream but It ain’t happening. They are better than this and will still finish somewhere in 9-12. Still gives us a top 10.

    Suns are already above them, I'm getting greedy now and want Carlton to leap frog Freo in the coming weeks.

    Understand I was confused because I loathe Carlton.

    I don’t know if it’s already been asked, but how the flip did we lose to this basket case!?

    ...just need Sydney & Carlton to run into a bit of form now.

    Then the way Hawthorn have been going is a bottom 3 position for Freo too much to ask for?

    That’s what we can only hope for.

    they don’t have an easy draw: Collingwood, Doggies and Cats all away. You can almost put down 3 losses there. 

    Lions, Bombers and Power at home - would be hard to win more than one of those.

    Blues, Swans, Eagles and Hawks round out the rest , which they’ll probably 3-4. 

    So can’t see them winning more than 4-5 games for the rest of the season for 10-11 wins, which is about 9-12 ladder wise.

    The bye certainly came at the wrong time for the boys from Cockburn.

    GWS would have to be a chance this week but seem unable to string 2 wins together.

    It's always the wrong time for cockburn, bye or no bye.

    It’s premature -  I know.

    So if teams finished as-is. We’d have pick 6, 18, 24, 36 and 90.

    I’d take 18 and 24 to  Cats  (as Suns unlikely to trade ) for Pick 9.

    Take 6,9 to WC for Reid. If they take it, good otherwise we use it on Curtain and Duursma.

    These umps either have money on the saints or Freo to make the 8 cos this is putrid. 
     

    But tigers doing enough to shunt Freo down further!

    Why are the cats giving us a top 10 pick? Slide down 9 places for a pick in the 20s is not a deal I would do if I was them.

    • 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.
