SIGH 😞 
 

I’m going to be completely honest, I’m already preparing myself for a finals exit in a prelim. 
 

To have so many injuries in the ONE weakness we have in our team: our FWD line, I just can’t see how we score enough to get to the Granny. 
 

Another [censored] wasted year by injury. 

yr doing mfcss wrong; you should be prepping for a semi-final not a prelim exit!

when things are glum there's worse to come

    Port beat them by 51 points 3 weeks ago

    GWS had no Bedford and Daniels that day. Two very important cogs.

    There is no way that 2/3rds of the team go missing again next Friday RBM.

    Even with 2 to 3 players having an off night we'll win well against the baggers....PROVIDED...

    Goodwin reads a bit of a riot act to the bulk of those that didnt show up against the Pies in the review sessions.

    Unacceptable peformences from too many on Thurs night.

    3 shocking finals performances in a row.

    Time for Simon to bring down the hammer!!

    I hope you’re right!!

    Makes sense to me. It would feel so good sending the baggers home, then giving us a crack at the lions up there. 

    One step at a time…

    Lions are doing all this without Ashcroft. Unlikely we'll have to worry, on Friday Curnow will probably kick more than our entire fwd line. Wont be hard. 8 goals should do it. Posters should stop calling other teams or players chokers.

    We're about to go out in straight sets again  4 x MCG finals.  

    The media will tag us the biggest chokers in recent history.

    If Maynard gets off after JVR got 1 week im taking another long break away from AFL. I dont need this corrupt corporate rubbish.

    Let’s just see what happens Friday night. We don’t give up, even if we don’t execute we always give amazing effort.

    I wouldn’t write this team off.

    It’s a fair call! 
     

    I reckon we’ll get up over Carlton but Brissy up there now seems like a monumental task. 
     

    Obviously hope I’m wrong!

    A thought for poor Membrey and his family. Sounds like a very sad mental health episode that saw him miss their final. 
    Wishing him all the very best.

    • 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.
