Judd McVee has been the stand out for me. 

Just as you posted that the commentators where also talking up his involvements and he had 3 touches in a minute.  Shown a lot.

Trac looks like he has a noticeable limp. 

Always has that when he gets tired

    Still seeing far too many bad traits in our game plan that still Lingers from last year.

    JVR is 0-5 on winning contests but every single one of them has been a soft drop forward and a really hard chance to mark.

    Phillipou is showing why I heard we offered the farm to get him. Dees recruiters not showing much emotion

    It feels like went hard early and then just dropped off. 
    You have to take the weather into consideration and also I don’t think we need to give away all our plans this early in the season.

    Agreed. Shocking ball use.

    Didn't cal twomey all but confirm it was Humphrey we were having a crack at?

    Regardless he looks a serious talent.

    Edit: just took another mark inside 50, protected the drop zone well and kept Petty out of it.

    I don’t think Cal was right, was working on the theory Humphrey is a very Melbourne player (and he is)

    Would be shocked if the bottom four doesn’t end up being Saints, Eagles, Roos, Hawks.

    Score please?

    Bowey big tick. His kicking was a bit off early but he's worked his way into he game beautifully.

    His body work in contests has been a huge standout.

    15.9 to 6.10 Grundy on the run.

    Hopefully a sign of things to come as Gawn and Grundy kick back to back goals. Grundy gets a lucky bounce and kicks his first in the Demon colours.

    • 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.
