Saints are a certainty tonight against Port despite it being the second most even game according to the bookies.

In 2021 we beat Fremantle in a round 1 home game.

In 2021 we broke a 57 year premiership drought.

In 2023, who played Fremantle in a round 1 home game?

In 2023, who has a 57 year premiership drought?

    Scott Pendlebury is a huge out for Collingwood against Adelaide on Sunday due to an eye injury

    Agreed. Great player. And I'm led to believe that he was a Melbourne supporter in his youth.

    Collingwood and Essendon have the toughest follow up games off short breaks.

    Wouldnt surprise if they both are mangled by halftime. Dees could be on top if the cards fall our way.

    St Kilda cant be trusted but neither can Port. 

    Eagles wont play badly every game and are due  to have a dip at home.

    Carlton losing would be the best R7 result by far.

    Some great games to look forward to.

    I fancy Port tonight. They've had a very difficult first 5 games to be 3-2. Had a training run against the Eagles last week so will be fresh for this one.

    Not sure which way bombers and cats will go.

    Crows to beat the pies. They're a very tough opponent at Adelaide Oval. I'm glad we play them at the G this year.

    There could be some very one sided matches this weekend.

    I hope we have a good win, Adelaide beat Collingwood & I know people aren't Geelong fans but I hope they thrash Essendon.

    I like tonight's game.

    Either Port lose and we become that little bit more secure in the top 4, or St Kilda lose and our pursuit of top-2 becomes a little easier.

    Football is a very different experience when you have faith in your own team continuing to be competent!

    Hmm, it would appear that my MFCSS is in remission.

    No wonder the saints are top of the ladder. 5 out of their six games and wins have been in Melbourne. 

    Only losss was the gather round which does not count as a travel game since we all did it.

    Now they have 2 more games in Melbourne. Best draw in the comp.

    Big game for Saints tonight.

    Ross Lyon is starting to remind me of Swooper the way that he has his players at all levels playing that little bit better

    • REPORT: Essendon

      What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

    • 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?
