Good to see Howes, Laurie, Windsor and Brown on the field and getting touches early. Nice goal threaded by K Brown on the boundary.

    Jvr has all the elements to get excited about.... including accuracy.


    Roo looks our most likely up forward.

    I like Fritsch and Koz as smalls but will need to find a few more big targets.

    Things looking ominous from a Richmond perspective. Demon mids doing as they like.

    JVR kicks our fourth of the quart...errr....period

    25-1

    K.Brown with a rundown tackle! Hands off to Petracca who kicks his 2nd!

    Schache giving the chop out in the ruck. I much prefer this so JvR isn't exposed to extra risk there.

    Interesting that the goals that seem difficult and the ones he doesn't spend time thinking about are the ones Tracca nails.

    Brown looks lovely up forward.

    Max looks as fit as ever.

    Gee I've missed footy.

    Brown looks like he might be a little pest, I might love it

    Pup, how can you not love the kid already, a lot of fight in that dog.

    Really nice passage of play through the middle with precision handballs - unfortunately ends with a Billing’s mis kick, but great to see

    K Brown looking promising. Love seeing Fritta lay a tackle even if it is high.

    I like Lauies skill and run, but a big question mark for me if he has the body and desire to put on physical pressure.

    Tuned in 10 minutes ago and it's been all Richmond and bombs into our crowded forward line.

    Back line being cut apart on rebound


    Richmond with the last three goals as the first period comes to a close.

    31-19

    The tall defenders are going to be a worry with this run and gun system. Lever has brain farts, May gets nervous under pressure and the Tug Boat can’t move the feet quick enough to evade pressure, nor can he defend.

    Some bad kicking leading to a Richmond goal late 

    Had some incredible passages of play in that qtr but mis kicks in both fwd and def 50 leading to missed opportunities and oppo score 

    Kick it high into the forward line.. nothing’s changed

      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.

      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.

      Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?
