    Thursday night - Mighty Dees put the cherry on top of their Gather Round experience

    Friday night - perversely reading through Dustin Fletcher Hangar game thread.

    Does it get better?

    So where was the great Essendon edge. It was more like watching thomas the tank engine having tea and scones with emily.

    Did I just hear BT say this has been an inspiring start to the season by Ken Hinkley???

    Nothing like beating West Coast, Richmond and Essendon. And then, wait, what’s that? Losing to an actual contender at home.

    Not gonna hold that against 'em.
    They gave us a run for our money without Horn-Francis.

    In his commentary, BT said Stringer was "lurking". I'm sure Stringer has done plenty of that!

    I'm a little sensitive about the references to the number of days since Essendon last won a final. While I'm a fan of schadenfreude involving Essendon, I'm not sure I want to be reminded of that match. It was against the Dees.

    For all the BT haters, give the guy a break, he just dropped the funniest thing I've ever heard.

    Had me in stitches.

    The worst is when he says something like: 

    "I'm an ex tradie, I'll get the tape measure out"

    It was still a good game.
    And I'll tip it'll be a good game next time too.
    Just reckon their little mids got tired of running into our fleet of bulls all night.
    They really could've used HF at stoppages.
    BOG tonight I hear.

    It's a reminder that they're a very good side when they're on, and that JHF makes them even better in the middle (although obviously a fit May makes us better too).

    We should be incredibly proud of winning both these Adelaide games.

    I think Scott is a flat earther and was referring to the edge of the earth and how long it would take till the Bombers eventually fell off.

    Didn't have to wait long.

    Round 22:

    Which should be the Friday night game?

    Dees v Port or Sydney V Collingwood.

    Knowing thee AFL that is not a question in their minds. Give it to the favourites up North. OMG just realized the Filth have to travel interstate for this one. Someone in "fixtures" will get a kick in the behind.

    So many close games.

    So many teams in form.

    So many quality players wasting away in the reserves because every team is just chock full of talent.

    It now makes sense to me why we need a 19th & 20th team.

    I watched the Port Adelaide vs Essendon game last night as a neutral, but also as someone who has a bit of a dislike for both sides. I did however, enjoy seeing Port tip Essendon completely over the edge because the Bombers have been unashamedly promoted in the Herald Sun throughout the preseason and into the first few weeks of the season proper. No coincidence that Mark Robinson, the paper’s chief football writer, is an Essendon fan. I wonder if we are now going to see a change of direction at the HUN and for someone among their team of journos to start questioning the culture of the club at the hanger?

      The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?

      A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.

    • GAMEDAY: Fremantle

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons return to the MCG wounded, undermanned and desperate. Still searching for their first win of the season, Melbourne faces a daunting task against the Fremantle Dockers. With key pillars missing at both ends of the ground, the Dees must find a way to rise above the adversity and ignite their season before it slips way beyond reach. Will today be the spark that turns it all around, or are we staring down the barrel of a 0–6 start?

    • PREVIEW: Fremantle

      A month is a long time in AFL football. The proof of this is in the current state of the two teams contesting against each other early this Saturday afternoon at the MCG. It’s hard to fathom that when Melbourne and Fremantle kicked off the 2025 season, the former looked like being a major player in this year’s competition after it came close to beating one of the favourites in the GWS Giants while the latter was smashed by Geelong to the tune of 78 points and looked like rubbish. Fast forward to today and the Demons are low on confidence and appear panic stricken as their winless streak heads towards an even half dozen and pressure mounts on the coach and team leadership.  Meanwhile, the Dockers have recovered their composure and now sit in the top eight. They are definitely on the up and up and look most likely winners this weekend against a team which they have recently dominated and which struggles to find enough passages to the goals to trouble the scorers. And with that, Fremantle will head to the MCG, feeling very good about itself after demolishing Richmond in the Barossa Valley with Josh Treacy coming off a six goal haul and facing up to a Melbourne defence already without Jake Lever and a shaky Steven May needing to pass a fitness test just to make it onto the field of play.
