Joel Smith has been absolutely Fantastic 

Agreed. Absolutely brilliant. 

 

Miraculously only 4 points down at half time.

I hope Goody peels the paint off the walls at half time. 

Trac really lifted there.

Kozzie awesome.

Max good quarter.

Lowering the eyes.

Good stuff.

It ain't been pretty but it's game level. Momentum with us.


Ok much better Melbourne. Only 4 points down. Definitely would have taken that at quarter time. 

The thing is we know we can play better and hopefully nth have already played there best. 

 

Always like this down there, that end has all the scores. Next qtr they just need to go defensive and counter punch them in the last with the wind


I believe our best strategy in the second half is to keep it away from Harmes at all costs. 

Good fight back lads. Knew we had that in us.

They'll start the tire out as the game goes on.

Get our running power back on we'll be fine.

My God, Harmes is useless.

Well done Kozzie, Chandler, Viney, Smith and Langdon.

relax guys

we got this

Umpiring is embarrassing.  I’ve watched more footy this weekend than I have for a while and I had actually begun to hope the umpiring had turned the corner.  That was an illusion obviously.


A big second half of 12 possies for Riv and two more goals to Petty and Melky and I’ll be $2500 richer.

Yes, solid second quarter. Need to keep it up in the second half. Good job boys 💪

Did pull finger pit finally.  Should win now. Should being operative word

Harmes is so far out of our best 23 it's not funny. Should've been dropped after last week, and definitely should after this performance.

Salem living on 2021 credits too.

So what does that say about our development or selection @

Salem, Sparrow, Jordan, Rivers, Harmes all might as well have had Kangaroo jumpers on for the first quarter.

Good effort from the rest of the team to carry those blokes.

He needs to. The issue with this is you start believing you don't have to turn up at the start. So much of footy is between the ears.


Kozzi will haunt Zeibells dreams

Quite a few look a long way off it today. Kozi , Max, Chin , Viney keeping us in it. Geez Harmes looks a shadow of himself tho… it’s sad to see him like this. I think this is the last we’ll see of him.

You're saying we should keep out of Harmes way?

  • 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.
