Sydney's stoppage and clearance awareness looks to be way off. So many Pies players running through a contest unmanned or unmarked. But maybe even more telling is the form of Heeny, Gulden and Warner: fumbling, missing targets by foot, and little zip. They were breath-taking only 6 weeks ago.

    Swans had better get going. If they lose tonight at home it's panic stations.

    Start panicking they look bereft of confidence and system

    Ordinary game.

    Hard to believe that the Swans looked unbeatable for the first 3 months of the season. their form has deserted them and I don't think they can regain it this year.

    I thought there was a rule that only the Captain could speak to the umpire and at a break.

    Pendles always does it and is at it again with umpire 22 Williamson, who is standing there talking to him.

    Why is this constantly allowed to happen?

    I called it weeks back Sydney are not winning it. Peaked too early and they don’t have the forward line. Just takes 1 injury , a couple out of form and the season off the cliff. Lions have the flag gift wrapped for them, they don’t have a worthy opponent. 
     

    Amazing how we should have had them just over a month ago. More amazing was they were 0-3.

    Can jack crisp just hurt himself please

    YESSSSS! This has to happen. Please footy gods, make this happen. This creep is getting perilously close to breaking Jimmy’s record. 🤮🤮🤮 It will have to be an injury, a suspension won’t do it since he’ll get off for sure coz Collingwood.

    Grundy makes some costly mistakes.  They should not let him anywhere near D 50.

    Turned it back to the olympics. Everytime I flicked over to the footy Collingwood either have the ball going for goal or have kicked a goal.

    Three goals in the first four mins of this quarter 🤮 Come on Swans! Get your [censored] together.

    My word the Swans are choking so hard

    Jordon with another dominant game

    3 touches in the 3rd Q

    Why did we let him go??

    Lions with 9 in a row and 13 wins out of 15 have to be raging favourites for the flag

    Swans will be out in straight sets

    Looks like we’ll decide whether or not Pies play finals this year. 

    It’s the perfect payback scenario to cripple them… literally of course.

    • 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.
