    Pies a genuine chance to miss the 8. not just being 0-3 but how they are playing

    its a beautiful thing

    Listen to Ross Lyon pregame on Fox

    He knew exactly who to target, and where to do it. 
    I know a lot of people don’t like Ross, but he is extremely sharp in his strategies

    David Kind now jumping on the saints as how ‘amazing were they last night’

    Were the saints amazing??? I thought Collingwood were awful more than Saints were good. Lots of saints goals came from Collingwood players making BAD errors that other top teams aren’t going to make. 

    He would be a great customer at Baskin and Robbins trying out a different flavour each month.

    David King tipped St Kilda to finish in the top 4 on Fox Footy's first crack preview show prior to round 0.

    Matthew Lloyd is the one that jumps on and off a team at the drop of a hat, particularly when it comes to the MFC.

    Round 0 loss to Sydney - "Melbourne are finished"

    Round  1 win over Dogs - "Melbourne are a genuine flag contender, don't worry about that"

    Lloyd might be a flip flopper, but he's got nothing on King.

    Just on us this season so far King:

    • pumped us up - don't sleep on the dees
    • days later on the season preview of first crack (before a game had been played) he picks us to miss finals
    • he then puts us back in his eight on the next first crack (which was after our round win over the dogs)

    Don't worry, he's jump off the saints soon enough.

    Saints mids are poo. Not a threat.

    I thought he was pretty down on us from well before the first game.

    I think the flip flopping would be a tactic. He's often quite irrational and bases he's opinion on teams based on 'feel'.

    Even the fact that we're talking about him is a win for Mr. King.

    It was always a goal!! 😁

    I was at that game but a long, long way from the Harmes incident as we were seated in the top deck behind the Punt Road goals at the opposite end of the MCG.

    Let me say without hesitation, without doubt and unequivocally that I can absolutely, cross my heart, 100% guarantee that by that late stage of the game I was so drunk I couldn't even see the other end of the ground but can confirm that indeed it was definitely a legitimate goal.

    I have to admit I'm jealous of the dockers this year death riding the pies first pick. Early days but it looks like it will be a juicy pick for them.

    Honestly that is a lot better than many would have feared. He looked in a very bad way when they showed a glimpse of him waiting to be loaded into the ambulance. Absolutely stone-faced.

    Feels like it has been a rubbish start to the season for injuries.

    • 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?
