9 years in the system and sometimes it feels he is getting worse, really a shame.

He isn’t and never will be a great kick. It’s serviceable but it’s an attribute common throughout most of the team.

Biggest surprise was that Petracca snuck that in for a behind

It would usually go out on the full 🥲

Fritta’s mum is on the phone with him now. It doesn’t sound good 

When you say it doesn’t sound good, what do they think it is? Syndesmosis?

FML we can barely  afford to lose a forward let alone our best forward 😭

Too many misses

What else is new blew chances again bad feeling about this game. Cannot afford to drop this which means we prob will.  Bloody wet weather  brings us down to their level toss of coin who wins. No win no top four this year

could be ligament damage......

Could be anything.  Let’s all speculate. 🤗

 

Please Dee’s … get a kicking coach and bring our boys ball use up to AFL level …. Hunter’s kicks are turnovers +++

She just said she’s not sure. Seems it must be bad because he didn’t want to talk much. She’ll update me and I’ll pass on whatever she tells me.

That's exactly what I was doing.


1st 

suburban footy 

poor skills and delivery 

🤬grundy 

🤮trac’s foot skills 

May, Rivers, Viney, Hunter, Sparrow 

21-8 inside 50s but one goal each 


Ben Brown's forward craft shines like a beacon in our forward line, even on a day like this.

He has it iced in the rooms but is walking on it 

 

Our sloggers having a good day - Harmes, Sparrow, ANB, Hunter.

We hit 9/10 targets between full back and wing, and hit 1/10 targets when going inside 50. It is a mental thing on full display today. Hunter and Petracca - wow, just so bad by foot.

This game will be won or lost on our F50 entries. Everywhere else we look strong.

    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.

    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.
