    Right???? I knew we’d put a few cracks in ‘em but we might have snapped ‘em clean in half!!! At the end of the season I want us to be able to proudly say we started their 15-game losing streak 🥳🥳🥳

    Haha I gotta say I ain’t mad about it.

    i have stuff happening in my life, promise, but this does give me some joy lol

    Obviously dissent frees aren't paid these days. Or not against Jee-long in any event. Their players continually wave their arms around when perceived injustices are inflicted on them by the umpires.

    They've done it for years - worst offenders are Hawkins and Cameron - and I have never ever seen them pinged for it.

     Sorry, I forgot to mention Dangerfield....

    Geelong and Carlton seem never to get a 50 paid against for dissent, and it is often quite demonstrative and abusive.

    Harley reid argued every umpiring decision. Nil dissent. I miss the days where any raising of the arms was 50...

    If Geelong wins, I'll shout the bar if Chris Scott mentions that Richmond's set-shot kicking contributed.

    Uh-oh...

    Break it to me gently, those who can bear to watch...

    Pretty happy with that result, short of Richmond winning.

    I thought Geelong would go ahead us on percentage with a 12 goal + win, but Richmond put up a good fight.

    And let’s face it, are Geelong seriously going 2-0 against Sydney and Carlton both away.

    Third place is ours if we’re good enough tomorrow.

    If we’re as good as we’re meant to be, I actually expect us to go second after KBD because I think Essendon will lose today and next week.

    Mac Andrew is a star. Barring injury, he'll be the best tall back in the AFL within 12 months

    Cannot believe some on here thought he was not worth it in his draft year 🤷‍♂️

    GC up by 5 with 2 minutes remaining. If the footy gods have any compassion whatsoever we’ll be hearing that song that no one knows the words to. 😁

    • 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.
