Rioli could do a stock standard handball and the commentators would call it the best handball of all time.

    Tigers are terrible but we ain't playing too well either.

    We're playing dreadful. We'd be 4 goals down again if we were playing Brisbane again.

    Scrappy! 

    Be great if Petracca could stick a tackle. Has missed at least three.

    We are looking very ordinary against a very, very ordinary side.

    Can anyone grab the ball and use it cleanly forward of center other than Kozzy pls

    3 basic shots at goal.  All missed.

    Does anyone think we look flat handballing it to players in a worst position?

    Sorry to say, but I think we're really bad. Our midfield is awful - every one of them out of form or injured. We have a good backline but the gameplan is all wrong and overly reliant on a couple of important defenders and the opposition playing into our hands with high balls into the backline.

    EDIT: Really bad is an overstatement but we're no chance for the flag playing like this.

    Were playing likes its a preseason game


    Turner and Langdon with poor misses 

    Goody needs to give the boys a spray at quarter time. not good enough at all against a bottom 4 team.

    Relax everyone 

    Tigers are giving everything and not scoring. 

    Absorb and then attack

    Why? We have midfield names that should strike fear. Instead we're constantly on the defensive. I think it's part of the gameplan but it's garbage and will fail in finals again.

    • 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.
