do we.. ask me in six weeks

The Pies gameplan is multiple levels above ours

Wouldn't say multiple but I definitely see theirs a lot stable then our current game plan which to be fair isn't far off at all.

    If anyone can beat them we can, but have to be somewhere near our best, and don’t let them get us with their run through the middle and on the outside.

    They get alot of goals out the back too, but if we work hard we can really punish them on turnover, as long as we don’t kick it straight to the likes of Darcy Moore.

    I like the way Crows and Swannies  played them, that’ll give us a few clues.

    the way the bears play them seemed to do the job

    What they have that we don't is good disposal.
    Last couple games they've picked us apart with it.

    I find SEN really hard to listen to these days but it’s worth the pain this morning listening to Carlton supporters ringing in and abusing their club.

    Watched Razor's performance again yesterday, and he is the best going around

    Anyone know what the crowd size was at the Pies Giants game, can't find it anywhere. 

    Found it 37,631 for a 4:40 start yesterday. We got 35,767 at the 1:10 game Vs The saints last year.

    We beat that vs Hawks at a similar time on Saturday there were 39,818 where apparently we outnumbered Hawks fans despite they having a membership of about 100,000 members.  Home game to both clubs.

    What a ridiculous thing to say, borderline offensive. No surprise though, they’ve been frothing over Cox the entire game. So cringey. 

    Same Gerard Healy who turned his back on Dees and went to Swans

    • 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.
