Even when Channel 7 is talking about what Geelong has done well they paraphrase it by saying ‘which Collingwood have now stopped’.

Is their supporter base that huge that games can only be seen though their lens? It’s just weird.

    Collingwood got their game back in order that 2nd quarter.

    They set themselves up well off half back from the likes of Maynard, Quaynor, Noble who gave them great drive in waves.

    Game could go either way.

    220 pressure index for q2 by Pies. That is literally off the charts.

    Hard to seem them sustain that throughout the game.

    Unless they’ve been loading

    My guess is they got given a serve by Fly after yet another poor quarter and they relied. 
    They’re lucky they are playing a side that’s as cooked as yesterday’s dinner. They should absolutely run Geelong off the field in the second half. 

    They should.

    Yes the pies pressure was better that quarter, as was their run, but to my eye, they still didn't look to be running over the ground like they were pre bye. The cats lack of speed flattered them

    Even if they go on to win, it will be fascinating to see if the pies can really run out this game the way we have been in the last three games.

    The pies do not want anymore injuries that's for sure.

    Stop taking mushrooms and commentating BT

    Poor BT must have something deep in his past memory some association between mushrooms and bull 💩 … but can’t correlate properly, and doesn’t realize that he is speaking it.

    I agree. They’re playing a side that is old, hammered by injuries and generally very slow. 
    They are also getting really smashed in the ruck. Stanley is a horrible horrible ruckman and getting smashed by a very average ruckman in return.

    Terrible bounce advantaging Pies not called back.

    That’s the real reason they should be made to throw it up, they now just call it back when it goes outside the circle but that one was basically a clearance to collingwood - peanuts

    De Goey off again.  God I hope you’re really really hurt. I hate wishing injury on players. But you’re not a player, you’re a filthy piece of trash.

    The way the pies push up so high defensively just exposes them.time and time again.

    Imagine if Geelong had Hawkins and Rohan wasn’t subbed off.

    • REPORT: Essendon

      What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

    • 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?
