I might reply if I could actually understand what you are saying here.

Fair enough i read it and it was a bit jumbled. The point being is i find it quite difficult to cope with the Media week in and week out so i hope they don't think we are going to cop it.

Ditto.... mumbo jumbo

You can see the disdain that players have for the indecision making process that goes on week in and week out. 

How decisions that are completely incongruous to the whole game except for the last minute pop up and a team loses.

How players do not get penalised for being in the protected zone in one game this week yet last week were, by the same umpire, in a different game at a crucial stage.

How players get regularly warned going over a mark, from some clubs and when others from other clubs do it they are penalised. How angles regularly get changed  to play on and not play on calls

 

Tonight's Special Privilege for Collingwood.

 Coll Player puts hand up. Carlton on mark. Player kicks ball after extra seconds have elapsed. All we hear in our games is play on.

HAPPENS EVERY WEEK

Heard from confidant that we are all the AFL talk about every Monday or Tuesday. Stop laughing at the AFL, boys.

Which umpires to do our game and which umpires not to...

How to catch us unprepared, different rule to be regurgitated and enforced. How cocky we are. How our senior/leaders players talk back to the Media all the time, to the point of no communication for fear of retribution back on the field.

Bollocks

If I need to use three words consistent with the thread: Bollocks, bollocks, bollocks

 

This thread is a joke.  I didnt see the game but how can virtually every player get a negative write up when one lousy kick would of won the game for us and we'd be sitting pretty heading towards Sept.  Huge ask for MFC to win on the road for the fifth time against the 2nd most in form side over in Adelaide.

Please stop wearing those ridiculous theme tops. All the teams look awful in them. NRL is laughing at us.

The AFL has lost its mind over the past 13 years or so. I reckon the rot started with the Meatloaf GF  debacle.

You write some rubbish but this is right up there. The NRL??? Who TF cares what they think.


Harsh 3WPA this week.

Based more on the outcome of the game, rather that the overall actions of the players. 

Are we sure joeboy hasn't been hacked by Michael Christensen?

🤔🤔 Didn't see the game......

Perhaps you might have stopped with that.

Had you....

  • 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.

    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?
