Assuming Freo win, we are very lucky to get pick 5 out of a 10 win season

the team in ninth are on 11 wins

We have done well overall

    Still could end up with 4 & 5.

    Looking like the worst possible result today with Freo starting to belt the Hawks and Gold Coast barely scraping by. 

    Still a decent result all up to get pick 5 from the Jacko trade last year.

    If north win, Reid is still on. ND5 with a 10 win season is a bit overs for Freo so I am glad to take it from them.

    True, would rather the earlier pick locked in place though. Still a chance.

    Freo really shouldn't have finished 5th from bottom. Great for us but a big under achievement for them.

    We would have ripped Peter Bellends arms off for pick 5 or 6 last trade period.

    Great result for the club at the end of the day.

    Not stressed one bit, extraordinary bit of business by JT and his merry men and women.

    Hawks are 27 down with 5 to go in the third, if they can get it down to 21 or under they might make a late run.

    Suns would have to be the softest team in the league. From leading Kangas by 28 points up to now down by 5 goals. Wow Hardwick was thinking his new job is Xmas … he might be challenged !! His best toys are soft toys!!!

    Looking like North and the Dorkers will win, which means we could will trade with Meth Coast. Adelaide should beat them so will get pick 5 and pick 23 from them to go will out 1st and 2nd picks this year.

    18 points but not sure how long left, could Gold Coast make a late run?

    I'll answer my own question GC need 6 goals to win now so I reckon providing Adelaide does the right thing then the option with WCE is still alive

    31 with 9 mins isn’t safe but I can’t see it happening.

    Full credit to North for putting in the effort today. Unfortunately Freo did the same. As long as our trustworthy recruiters are on the ball again, those juicy extra picks should more than compensate for the loss of Jackson. Mind you, I'm still sorry he chose to leave.

    • 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.
