What about McQualter? Our midfield is a shadow of last year under Yze.

I’ve been thinking this too - I was excited by what McQualter could bring to the team at the start of the year but what I’m seeing from the midfield this year is a shadow of what we’ve come to expect over the last few years

    He's delusional as they come.

    Shouldn't be let into the club anymore honestly... Delusional at best.

    Both clubs boasted 15 players from their respective premiership teams 

    Howes, Turner, McVee, Kozzi and Rivers are the way forward

    Time to build a new team around these blokes 

    Kozzi is a good player, but the others are all bog average. Rivers needs to wear gloves or something, cause he is a fumble king with zero composure.

    Not sure if Goody believes the words coming out of his mouth but he sounds delusional.

    All this says is the club isn't being forthcoming in where we're at.

    If u are upset about the loss don’t watch Goodies presser. We evidently improved I must have been watching another game. That right we lost by 92 points last week so I guess in that context he was right

    I like their athleticism and their timing and composure will improve with games under their belt

    The 190 - 195cm, built for purpose, quick players are the way forward in the next phase of AFL footy (in my humble opinion)

    Our crash and contest game is now found out and the physicality of several years is catching up with some of the players

    When we lost Gus we lost the soul of the club. 
    We still have the heart in Maxy but it’s not enough unfortunately.

    God I hate the Collingwood chant.

    Sad days

    Probably not our best day, but an improvement on last week. 
    Kicking for goal is like a raffle at the moment. We do the work and do not quite finish it off.

    ANB,TMac ,JVR all good.

    Not going to be too harsh but I think all things considered a quick handshake and off the ground as fast as possible would have sufficed.

    Not sure if anyone else caught the vision.  Moments after another cough up passage play compounded by some feeble efforts the camera swung onto Trac...  he looked "demoralised"   You could see in his eyes, his face...   WTF is going on.  As is he was participating in a bad BAD dream.

    Welcome to our world mate.

    Well it's coming home to Roost midfield one paced, players lacking football skills by hand and foot,  gameplan is outdated if anybody watches the replay up the ground vision the pies always have players closer to their forward line who unlike us stays high and are unable to get back.

    Guys like Sparrow and rivers always try to break tackles lack awareness just play on and kick to nothing. As for Clarry for those comparing him to Flower hang you heads in shame another non thinker who just blazes away or hamballs to players in a worse position with no thought about it, the game was played in panic mode from start to finish.

      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.
