Whew! Feels like 11pm already - can't believe we have 1v2 to go. Love footy after a win or when we're playing on Sunday!

    Cats bossed the last 5 minutes and could easily have won if their inside 50 entries had been better. Nothing to do with Bears learning from last week despite it making a good narrative.

    The day Geelong is rotting in 18th I will throw a party. Everyone welcome. Especially Christ Scott.

    We want Port to win tonight right? If Collingwood loses tonight the "far and away best" mantle slips off a bit with them having lost to all 3 of the other top four sides. Plus…it's the pies. Stuff 'em!

    I’m with you. I want Port to win. Port don’t worry me. They are home and away champions and finals chumps. We’ve seen it before. We will see it again. They also can’t defend.

    Now for the big game of the round.

    Dockers v Swans.

    Oh wait that was last year.

    Port look tense as. This is the biggest game for them since that Richmond Prelim.

    What about the 2021 prelim? That went well for them 😂

    Was thinking the same - Pies look very relaxed, Port look nervous as anything.

    Mickey Mouse season. We need to win a real one to validate it in my mind.

    What makes it a Mickey Mouse season? It was a full season, we won it without a single home final, and won it convincingly. I do not agree with that notion at all!

    Call it my last vestige of MFCSS. I think some of the bigger clubs and those who had won one recently, with COVID, didn't care quite as much. It wasn't at the MCG. Win another one at the G with this group and I'll value them both equally, but fail to win another one and I'll view 2021 in a very different light.

    Can’t see the Cats making the 8 given their draw and age of their squad. 

    unless 11 wins gets you in.

    I reckon the Pies will roll Port tonight.

    Great Ashes coverage on Gem. Nothing but Sportsnet adds. I just want the weather report fgs . Too much to ask.

  • Quote

    The pitch is covered so hopefully there's no cricket today. What a fitting way to win this series. Keep raining . Bairstow won't catch a cold.

    Adelaide really know how to turn on the weather for big matches.

    Just like Manchester.😀

    Currently raining at Manchester. Yet I'm still continuing to watch the coverage. Maybe because I do not want to watch Collingwood

    • 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.
