Did we all enjoy Augie March playing during the pregame? They’re arguably the most underrated Australian band ever. I guess they had to sing I was only 19 as it’s fitting, but their original music is quite something else. 

Can’t agree with this enough!!! Incredible band 

 

Bombers covering the corridor and pushing em wide

BT and Brayshaw, a match made in hell

And Jobe. Can’t forget Jobe.

 

Noticed Stringer didnt stand the mark up forward with Sidebottom kicking.  Instead he spotted Nick Daicos behind him and took the outside 5 to cover him off.

The Pies always looking to get it into Nicks hands wherever possible.

Smart coaching

Aaaargh, the image in my brain WCW aaargh


I can never figure out who are the Turks and who are the Aussies on the ANZAC day match.

Handball and run & carry from the Bombers 1st class in that quarter.

Didn't recognise Ginnivan without the bleached hair.

He’s now going for a poor man’s Bjorn Borg. A kind of Sweden meets Broadmeadows vibe.

Had a bit of a look at JVR's marking method, @demon3165

You were right, he kind of has his wrist turned back and opens his palm towards the ball.

The balls energy seems to be absorbed by his elbow movement, which if he has freedom from opponents works well to bring the ball in. If he gets it a bit wrong, out it pops, off those palms. It doesn't pop out too far, as there is some cushioning. Would prefer his wrist to be part of the give. Also noticed that Brody has a similar technique (palms of the hand are turned forward).

Glad you had a look, it's a small fix that can have a big impact with him, surprised they have not fixed that.

Today would have been a good day to go down to Centrelink if it was open.

Andy the crime rate goes down 75% as well

 

Essendon play the kind of footy that will stand up in finals. They look so organised. Very well coached.

  • 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.
