There's a one day amnesty on the death ride.

For two weeks. Surely we want them to beat Port as well in Round 23?

    It’s a tough game to watch really. I think I want the Lions to win but when they just kicked that goal to take the lead I felt dirty. Perhaps a draw?!

    And again…could be 2 goals up…instead 2 behinds and the scores are level.

    I'll take a draw though.

    A draw would be good. And funny.

    What a one-handed mark from Amiss. Luke Jackson is playing a ripper game.

    This game is SO boring. Yet so important. 

    Imagine being a Lions fan watching our game this afternoon. Boring and disappointing (not that I'm complaining).

    He’s desperate for Melbourne to get a home final 😂

    Freo are torching their forward opportunities and Brisbane are pulling free kicks and random kicks off the ground for all their goals. Annoying.

  • Quote

    Jackson has lost 2-3 critical one on ones in the last few minutes to cost Fremantle a goal and a chance at goal.

  • Quote

    Frederick with another ripper goal from the pocket to bring Freo within 2 points with a minute left. Come on Jacko give us some of that bang bang bang magic.

  • Quote

    Luke Jackson had so many chances to impact the game in the last 5-10 minutes and just didn't want it enough.
    Lions win, but the dees secure 2nd (for a week at least).

    Ah well, we finish the round #2 and we can keep death riding freo. 

    Key take away though, both sides are not good enough. It’s a shame we lost to both this year, but that stat won’t matter when we’re holding the cup.

    Freo should have won that one.

    would have preferred a Lions loss but a close win next best outcome

    I'll be back on the death riding bandwagon next week. Go Eagles

    • 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.
