    Hate Carlton.

    But my hatred of the filth is off the scale ....

    Haven't heard DAICOS DAICOS DAICOS much, nor seen the smirking father thankfully.

    Taking Weideman over Curnow/McKay is why we have forward line issues now.

    Can you just imagine our team With Curnow. It would be just magical.

    This further proves that Collingwood really haven't been travelling as well as their W/L suggests in the last 6 weeks. They become so vulnerable when the pressure is on and are easy to get on turnover.

    They will be found out in September.

    This one sided hyped up commentary of Collingwood is making this telecast unwatchable

    Teams are starting to not care about trying to stop Collingwood chaining up through the midfield because as long as they've got the inside 50 kick pressured or can make a contest inside 50 it doesn't matter.

    Exactly.

    Sure, they might turn this game around, though it doesn't look like it.

    But their two biggest, interrelated, vulnerabilities have been on full display- vulnerability to the counter because their defence pushes up so high and as you suggest a game plan based on feeding it to their outside players and high risk kicks that can break down under pressure.

    Did Brayshaw just say Collingwood has “millions of fans”?

    Someone should teach him math.

    Absolutely, Chook, and this is how we beat them on KB'day. AS long as there is not an overlap player, let then run and carry. Just pressure their kicker. And cut it off at half forward. I have to admit, Voss' coaching and game plan ha been very good tonight.

    • 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.
