Is it just me or is CH7 panning to Maynard all the time?🤮

I think they're doing subliminal public service messaging:

'Kids, be careful what you ask the barber for; this is what you could look like.'

    The number of times in the last that I saw Pies players throw their arms out at the umpire appealing for a free, as if in a tight game its expected to go their way and they should be allowed to win. Bad bloody luck! Ha!

    As much as Darcy looks to be a young star, I also loved the composure of Sanders. He's a great addition to their midfield

    For the excuse mongerers bemoaning Collingwood's injuries just remember the Dogs played most of that 2nd half a man down.

    Healthy percentage, the Doggies. Poised for a ladder leap, so keep the joy a bit contained, folks...

    It’s up to us now. Beat Freo and the Pies and we go into the bye two games clear in the 8 guaranteed in the top 4. We have rarely taken these chances since 2021, cmon Dees! Two big wins! Set the season up, put Freo and Pies away!

    Well he’s not happy to say the least but the excuses are just rolling thick and fast. 
    I'm being a tad annoying as I’ve watched the Maynard ‘footy act’ about 50 times. He’s getting a bit sick of me yelling ‘ Karma’ and that Darcy is my hero.

    Oh dear jane we’re kindred spirits

    I am not sure my +1 knows angus can’t play anymore as a consequence of that hit

    she thinks I’ve become very weird about football

    They were playing Super International Cricket on Super Nintendo and pressing the Y button repeatedly to appeal, hoping something would stick.

    Roaming Brian is an absolute goose, but if your side wins he interviews all your lads who are happy to speak to him and it is a fantastic thing for the winning fans.  As long as it’s ABC

    Garcia for the dogs looks promising. Been noticing him for a few weeks now. He’s able to affect games.

    Apart from Darcy, who looks like he's 18 playing against under 12s, really like the look of James O'Donnell too.  Kid can seriously play.  They have some spine developing.  

    But many big guys do you really need flying for the same ball.   I'd love JUH but here's a first rounder, give us Naughton please.

    I swear when Lobb was playing for GWS he was a serious (almost gun) ruckman/forward. I’d watch GWS play and he would be pretty consistently prominent.
     

    Was that incorrect? Or has he dropped off massively since going to Freo then Dogs?

    The Dogs are a confidence team. i reckon they’ll lose 3 of their next 5 looking at the fixture. Not a premiership threat imo

    dropped off massively. For a guy that is 205cm somehow allows smaller guys to out position him and he's a below average read in flight.   He was good tonight tho for someone who half the time looks like he doesn't care.

    Yep second only behind the Swans

    The Dogs have finally cracked it for 50 wins vs the Filth.

    Only took them 100 seasons of footy to get there

    • 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.

    • PREGAME: Essendon

      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?
