Congratulations to Scott Pendlebury who becomes the first player in AFL history to play 400 games without ever stepping foot on Kardinia Park.

He also holds the games record on the MCG. He’s played 62.5% of his games at the G. 252 out of 400.

And the fixture is fair and equitable, and there’s nothing to see here.

    💯 of those games were on a Friday night also.

    Go's to show you how unbelievably uneven this comp really is.

    Scott has called Stengle being unconscious at a club a little hiccup and he will play this weekend

    Way to enable bad behaviour!

    this will bite them on the [censored] for sure. Media have not insinuated the obvious use of naughty things

    The last time Essendon played Freo at the MCG they got 35,000.

    (admittedly that was in 1999)

    Has there ever been a better mark from a first year player?

    Durrsma, what a hanger!

    I know Tiges v Roos is a battle for the wooden spoon, but it is a very entertaining game. Lots of run and carry, high marks, great goals, and the occasional bit of argy-bargy. Some serious young talent in both teams.

    LDU and Sheezel putting on a clinic. God I hope we can recruit some elite midfielders in the coming draft / trade period.

    • 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.
