    Should have included a 50 meter. Lucky Paddy did the right thing.

    Howler of a free kick against Cripps, but if Carlton now lose by under a goal, there is a part of me that will be deeply pleased.

    So we want St Kilda and Port to win?

    But Port can't move up or down (unless they lose badly), would they care tonight?

    good point ... they can't be too motivated and won't want to risk injuries

    Commentator said, to the letter of the law I suppose it was a free, what other law is there?

    If the Saints could handpass to the receivers' hands rather than their ankles and knees they would transition better.

    Who does that remind us of, I wonder idly?

    I am torn, on the one hand I want Carlton to lose. On the other, I want Freo to lose.

    But if Carlton does lose, Freo is all but certain in the 8.

    Freo still must win..  I back them but it's no certainty

    Port has no reason to try to win tonight.

    The Carlton-St Kilda game has some atmosphere and shenanigans for sure, but I love the background detail that if Port beat Freo then this game can have absolutely no effect on anything at all.

    Except we would drop to getting pick 5 instead of 6. Hmm...

    Go Saints

    Go Power 🤢

    If Carlton lose, we also want Power to lose so that Freo takes the last spot in the eight (and thus denying Carlton a final).

    Go Saints.  Go Freo.

    If they lose by more than 5 goals Geelong will finish 2nd.

    If Saints lose this we will most likely slide to pick 7 with the Josh Battle compensation.

    • 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.
