We are getting smashed. Time to try something different. McVee and Kolt to the guts.

    Lever [censored] lazy defending!

    Sparrow too busy guarding space when Fyfe was by himself.

    Petty is as weak as a butter in every ruck contest.

    Embarrassing display. About ready to turn it off.


    Nice easy training run for Freo. Fullarton couldn't have done any worse than our current rucks. This is just embarrassing.

    We're lucky not to be down by 10 goals already.

    Bombing it down the line with no ruckman isn't working, need to run and overlap to break through their zone.

    Winning a clearance or 2 would be a good idea as well.

    Send Petty back, TMac into ruck and JVR has to stay forward.

    Yep i agree with that

    Chin's man in the middle there.  He was just ball watching even after they held it up for 10 seconds on the wing.

    Disgraceful defending

    switched off. 

     

    This is worse than the last time we played them and that was the worst game I’ve seen us play under Goodwin. 


    At least we have the bombers loss to remember.. might turn on that replay 

    Fell right into Walters lap, it's all going right.

    Something isn't right with Lever 

    Just gonna chuck the rods in the car.

    Glad I’ve waited all weekend for this. Can’t believe this is how we play when a top 4/5 spot is on the line……No ruckman is a disgraceful decision. 


    Goodwin has to do something different. We can’t have another smashing or one team will cost us finals.

    • 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.
