    Socceroos playing a World Cup qualifier v Bahrain. 0-0 at half time. Very boring match ....

    Socceroos  ranked 24, Bahrain 62. Socceroos lacking ideas. Hopefully Bahrain run out of steam ... or Irakunda comes on and scores.

    Hinkley gone?

    I have only just turned on - am I right in hearing that their best mid, Horne Francis, was on the bench for 5-6 minutes at the start of Q1 and Q2?

    What sort of coaching decision is that??

    OMG the Port fans are bloody feral. 
    Will the umpires, and the few Cat fans get out unscathed after that game?

    I can’t wait to pile on Kane when Port do a double straight sets. At least we won a flag. 

    I’m watching on channel 7 but listening via SEN and Kane Cornes is commentating - he’s as hard on them as he is with any other team, maybe even more so.

    Saying it’s a massive story how poor they are and they are hugely vulnerable now to go out in straight sets.

    Cats know how to play finals footy, manic pressure, hard at the contest and super fast ball movement.

    Port have no idea, especially their forward entries.

    I feel so sick watching what the Cats are doing.

    Roffey and Pert should resign in shame after what we have put up with in the last 2 years.

    Stable board, no leaks, player gets out of line and its dealt with internally and swiftly.

    No a word mentioned afterwards.

    We have pi ss ed the media off for our dismissal of issues pilling up and they haven't missed when the opportunity arose.

    If dogs go thru they will smash them

    To be completely fair to Hinkley… Horne Francis has been absolutely smothered. Tagged out of the game comprehensively. May as well not be in the ground.

    The only time you hear anything out of Jeeelong is when they announce another Government Grant approved 

    They make finals most years….

    If JHF was playing for any other team tonight he’d be tearing him to shreds. Definitely holds back on him specifically.

    • 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.

    • PREGAME: Essendon

      Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?
