How does that Jack Viney get a game? Seriously🙄

Sarcasm!

    Bring on 3rd v 4th next week. 
    Nibbler did plenty of tough work, 11 tackles is a fair effort.

    Grundy needs to settle down or he'll take the Brownlow off Clarry !

    That performance was a bee's you know what from being a much bigger smashing. Can't complain with the start we've had, and I was particularly happy with McVee, Sparrow, Viney, and Rivers - not to mention Brodie Grundy who is such a luxury to have with Max out.

    Good win. Scrappy kind of game in many parts. A shocking display of umpiring (again makes a mockery of our professional game). Everyone contributed. Go Dees.

    37 pressure acts too!

    I'll definitely take that. West Coast made us play an absolute scrapfest in the first half but in the end our class and fitness got us over the line.

    It was great to see Tmac find some form and Trac get back to his goal-kicking best. I'm also loving the look of Mcvee at the moment. You wouldn't have thought it was only his fourth game if you watched him play closely.

    Good solid all round performance, nice to see others given more midfield time.

    Bring on the Scum next week.

    Judd McVie is shaping as my new favourite player. So clean. Salem has significant competition for his spot

    Salem should take Bowey’s spot IMO.

    Trac really lifted in the second half. 12 possessions, 2 contested, no tackles and 1 clearance in the first half.

    29 possessions, 8 contested, 4 tackles, 3 clearances and 3 goals by full time.

    Edit: 448 metres gained too thank you very much.

    For all the whining about the umpires (not entirely unjustified), we won the free kick count 22 to 16.

    Umpiring was terrible both ways.

    Grundy slowly hitting vintage AA form. Imagine Pies fans watching that.

    • 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.

    • PREGAME: Essendon

      Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?
