I've always rated Hodgey's analysis  not to mention his mellifluous speaking voice and command of the English language.

    He must have missed the McVee news if he's saying the defence is all healthy and stable. Big loss

    Around 80% of Demonlanders typically love every commentator who is positive towards the team & want to lynch anyone critical of the team.

    Plus, Hodgey is one of the few commentators who gives it back to BT's BS antics and calls, deserves respect in itself 😁

    Cranky must hate this positive talk! Like a vampire when they are touched by sunlight…

    I won’t listen to any media talk, positive or negative, because that’s all it is, talk by people justifying their jobs. 

    As the saying goes, it’s never as good or as bad as it seems!

    Considering what has taken place over the last 6 months i will be very disappointed if we don’t make September 

    We should be aiming for Top 4

    Objective is my middle name.

    But seriously - you can't argue that most posters start foaming at the mouth whenever the Dees get criticised yet praise the $h!t out of any journalist that writes us in a positive light.

    Its the time of the year where all the obnoxious predictions are put to the airwaves. Many have us bouncing back into the top 8 but one i tend to keep my eye is coaches under the pressure valve. Goody along with Voss and Longmuire and Nicks are the consistent theme here. I do think Goody is undeserving of the attention for just one bad season, but the style and manner in which we imploded as a club, its easy to understand why. His deal ends at 2026. At what point do you start to think his job comes under the spotlight? 

    Our first 6 rounds are: GWS @G; Norf @ Marvel; Sun @G; Cats @KP; Bombers @ Adelaide; Freo @G. I cant see us running the table, but i can see anything from 5-1 to 2-4 ledger after the first 6. I think pressure mounts at anything worse than 3-3.

    Our next 6 is easier with a 5-1 to 3-3 range. Which brings us to a 10-2 : 5-7 mid-season tally. Things would have be get diabolical to be worse than 5-7, but i think, equally, a lot would have to go right to get near a 10-2 position after the first 12 rounds.  Goody would want a positive win/loss after 12 to have any chance of finals. Its really hard to have any certainty on this given the evenness of the competition we face in the first 12 rounds and just how bad our last 12-18 months has been. I do hop we have settled and turned the corner and are back competing, but there is a slither of MFCSS I have that we may not respond to last years cluster as we all hope.

    Not me, I'm actually hoping to go through the whole season not consuming any AFL media and watching games on mute.

    That is known as the Binman Method and is not for the faint-hearted.

    I’m thinking that we end up 3-6 th depending on injuries and how we adapt to the revised game plan and how The Duke, Tholstrup, Disco, Jeffo, Langford and the Spreadsheet can step up. We now bat pretty deep, can’t wait for the real stuff.👍😁

    So, that means 80% of us want to lynch some cranky guy!

    • REPORT: Essendon

      What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

    • 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?
