Good the AFL is trialling this nonsense instead of working out a way for Casey to not have a bye every second week 

They could tank, to get the continuity into themselves. (The wild card entry into VFL season final fixture)

    We just need a win to get the 6th position. 

    6  Footscray  48  % 129.81

    7  Casey  44   %  130.13

    I heard the commentators say we need to win by a certain amount, not true.

    6th guarantees a week off, as 7 to 10 play for wild card entry into finals.

    Percentage will matter if we don’t win by a few goals at least. 

    For example, if we win 129 to 103 we will still be 7th.

    Our percentage win in this game cannot be lower than 127.18. So if they score 80, we need to score 102. 

    85 - 109

    90 - 115

    Of course, I didn't think it out well.

    So we need about a 20 point win.

    Thanks for that Rpfc.

    Hoping for a big last quarter, though won't be able to watch (the "G" is calling)

    Sounds like Hibbo was concussed?

    I think he was as well. Looked to be staggering as he got up.

    Devils advocate.

    With a bye-heavy inconsitent season, do we want actually want casey to finish 6th and get a week off? Or would we prefer them to play next week to keep our reserves players pushing for selection and have some continuity.

    Rhys Mathieson is a repulsive footballer, who just complains and whinges all game.

    Is bren brown out for the rest of the year? Have heard nothing about his knee, but he's injured right?

    Reported on here that he failed a fitness test before the game. Not looking good.

    I think this might be his last season, so interesting to see if he gets back. His knee is one week on, one week off.

    Much better. Still not great when it’s hit the ground. And has run quite a bit (made it to the backline to defend). Delivery hasn’t been great but he’s presented really well.

    • 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.
