Nice to see the Channel 7 commentary team are pro Carlton at all levels 🙄

Just doing what Gil wants them to do.

umpires seem to be allergic to paying HTB

 

Spargo involved all over the ground. Kicking goals, linking up in the midfield and spoiling opposition forwards at the moment.


Tommy's moving ok, but not being kicked to effectively as usual.

what i'm liking is how free he looks in his movement

he and spargo early candidates to return next week imo

this is not just a form slump for James Harmes anymore. he looks beyond cooked...

Will Verrall just looks and moves like a player. I reckon he’s a goer. Be great to see him come on.

I was just thinking that. He looks like a young and sprightly McDonald!

Looks terrible. And just lacking hunger. 
 

Adams looks good. Tomlinson solid.

Seems completely devoid of confidence at the moment.

Tomlinson had a mare of a moment, misses Laurie by a good 5 metres by foot then turns it over with an in board kick.

Edited by Nascent

Bailey Laurie is a massive DELIST for mine. His fumble there on the forward flank shows limited football ability. Fwiw…this Casey team is plying big ordinary football. No cohesion at all


The Carlton free ride from the umps continues. How is that a free against Tomlinson? Trash 

Tomlinson is playing pretty well imo, and a bit more aggressively than usual, taking the game on. Interesting.

Casey is being dominated though in the midfield so we're unable to see Tommy McDonald much.

Spargo will play next week. Playing well. 

In for Jordan for sure.

  • 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.
