The Xerri v Nankervis ruck battle was decent.  Nank definitely the Tigers best and Xerri continued his good form.  Xerri took the chocolates in AFL fantasy but Nank won supercoach.  Was a good old fashioned 80's style ruck battle. Some of Nank's touch in the last quarter was exceptional.  Xerri is the heir apparent to Max.  He can take a decent grab.

    Fun fact: Rory Laird’s parents sat with us in the cheer squad last night (really lovely couple). His mum is and always has been a passionate Demons diehard. Right now they’re at Mordor watching their son play in what’ll likely be a loss. Not a good footy weekend for the Lairds. 😢

    Thilthorpe is a beast. Causing real problems for the Cats.

    Players getting penalised for attacking the ball by being deemed holding the ball, can’t stand it. Hate AFL HQ for what they have done this year.

    that HTB against Fogarty was ridiculous. what was he supposed to do?

    He has improved out of sight. Going to be a star.

    Media say anything about him playing, without any punishment at all, for at the least, being out at 3.00 am at a nightclub last week, drinking and maybe doing more and ending up unresponsive, taken by ambulance to hospital?

    Can imagine the coverage if it was a lesser club. Absolute silence from a totally beholden media.

    Hoping the Blues' can ruin his party ... on my way to the MCG 🙏😁

    Blues could end the round in 8th with a loss. They were second a couple of weeks ago, crazy.

    I really wish the AFL would make Carlton wear some poxy alternative jumper against Collingwood.

    preference is a pies win. They're unlikely to play finals and a loss will keep carlton out of the top 4

    Aside from beating North this will be 5 losses for Sydney on the trot

    fkking joke

    just a hiccup for the good Geelong boy

    Cats will regret their weak and unsupportive approach to Tyson’s situation. they care about winning, that’s all

    • 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.
