A very good Player was TC, i think he lost his position to Danny Hughes. 
Was always sad to see him play for Footscray….

Will never forgive TC for burning Robbie in the goal square in the '87 prelim - Robbie's last ever game for the club (RIP)

    The Northey teams had mainly 'no names' ... Jamie Duursma, Dean Chiron, Doug Koop to name a few.

    No disrespect to them; those guys (and the others) had a RHG and I loved watching them. 

    100% and more

    Sunday's effort was 'meek' and the footy commentators described it as 'Freo barely raising a sweat'

    How embarrassing

    Do you know the nature of the injury?

    Apparently he had an issue with his shoulder and he was subbed off as a precautionary measure.

    Agreed. But 3 ridiculously good kicks and 1 good mark/handball in the space of 8 seconds. Unbelievable.

    And if Howlett blew his whistle when the siren sounded, Jimmy (RIP) would never have then run over the mark

    I saw the game (live) and I agree with Kev. But had I not seen it I’d still agree with Kev. The misery and abject hopelessness and despair is suffocating. We lost a game of footy today. We won the previous three, we may win the next three. And just as the venters are entitled to vent, so too are the folks who find the venting stifling and uber-negative and an overwhelming drain.

    Everyone/entitled/opinion etc.

    PS you’ve yet to show me where I potted Tom Fullarton. You accused me of such, remember? So… show me. 

    This first paragraph sums up everything we know about you in a nutshell.

    Do you actually follow the sport of Australian Rules? It seems like 90% of your posts are about criticising people on here for being too negative for you. I've never seen one post from you commenting on the actual game, it seems that you are much more interested in attacking people on here than the sport itself. The fact that you are willing to blindly agree with someone who didn't watch the game just so you can get another swipe in at everyone who doesn't think like you underlines this.

    It's starting to make sense why you can't understand people's negativity if you don't understand the sport. A lot of people here do and that's why they bring their critiques and observations to the table. It's like everyone is talking in a language different to yours and you're annoyed at them for it.

    They could’ve gone a little longer with that, curious to see what happened after they walked through the door. 
    Good little clip though.

    I bet it would have just been 10 minutes of beeped sound 😂

    Gawn is much more relaxed watching a game than I am. I would get kicked out of that coaches box in 0.3 seconds.

      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.
