    Gerard Healy had to take over at one point when Huddo's headset slipped off.

    I said it last year but Levi Casboult would be perfect for our game style. Competes so well in the air.

    He is 33 so too near the end. Can clunk them though.

    Nothing like a 10-goal win at the MCG over poor interstate opposition to deceive Carlton into thinking they're any good.

    How could we only beat the Suns by a few points if the blues can [censored] them? Jeez the dees are rubbish!

    How could only bet the blues by a couple of goals when they could beat the Suns so easily? Jeez the dees are rubbish!

    Yes, we beat the Tigers, but they beat the Saints and the Saints are the opposite to demons. Jeez the dees are rubbish!

    How could we lose to Freo, coz they got flogged by the Giants and we probably will too. Jeez the dees are rubbish!

    Have i got it right? Isn't that how it works?

    He's dreadful on the deck, so he wouldn't be getting many games. Just like TMac and BB.

    Woeful crowd 29K at MCG. Bluebaggers really jumped off the wagon this week but they'll all pile on again now they've won a game.

    Liam Jones has gone past him in the game ratings and he is sitting on the bench waiting to be subbed on.

    He marks the ball, and is a genuine threat in the air - especially in a contested situation. Neither Brown or TMac have been able do that in the last 18 months.

    I’m not advocating we get him now, I just wish we grabbed him for free 18 months ago. 35 goals last year.

    Bulldogs ... you know you're in trouble if Greenwood kicks 2 goals in a quarter against you.

    I have a soft spot for Hugh. He lost his mum to breast cancer six years ago, he was only 25. He took it really hard and to this day still points to the sky after kicking a goal. 😔

    Interestingly, his grandfather played for Melbourne and played in the 1955 - 1957 grand finals.

    Have you ever met Huddo?

    Seriously his head just doesn't fit. Reminds me of a younger Bert Newton.

    Sorry to hear that. He may well be a ripper bloke, but he's cooked as a footballer (IMHO).

    FWIW he looks very much like Matthew Newton.

    • 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?
