    Hate to say it but such a typical dees  loss coming up …. Expecting so much more from how they played last week to lose this honestly … one can only imagine the crowd v the suns next week

    What's Rivers role? Was supposed to be midfield this year and he's not really been in the guts or at half back in his old role. Looks like a wasted talent at the moment having no impact.


    Rivers and Woewodin just stood there looking at each other. No talking, no awareness.....Absolutely terrible. There seems to be no team spirit. We are cooked.

    A gift of a ball there and we kick it to Trac's shoelaces 

    That play has done me in, turning off and going to weed the garden. Dismal

    Zurharr just entered protected zone. No call. 


    Trac must be sick 

    can’t even stick a tackle

    drag him or play him fwd FFS

    What's happened to rivers?

    Why would you play on there Rivers?  Then cant hit a target 17 meters away.

    Just Putrid smarts and skills

    No strength among most over the ball or when trying to stick tackles.

    Panic footy from pretty much everyone inside 50 whenever they get their hands on it.

    Bar Sparrow, Chin, Viney, Spargy and a few other occasional cameos, where's the intent and ferocity at the loose ball and ball carrier in a team sense?



    We are sounding like bomber blitz or the blue baggers

    Agree.  We are a poor kicking team for years now, with ongoing deficiencies in forward connection.  Doesn't matter who we play, we're going to be giving them a lot of chances.

    Spargo has been horrible with his disposal.

    And I've never seen so many handballs made in sheer desperation.

    Nice kick from Disco let's hope he's the difference.

    Cos it ain't Fritta and doesn't look like Jvr will be. And even if we moved Tracca fwd, he can't score.

    These look away handballs are atrocious.

    Playing group isn’t good enough and our coach isn’t good enough to get the most out of an average list.

    Nothing will change with Simon at the helm. Wasting another season.

    Yet most on here defend Goodwin. He is killing my love of this club. I used to read demonland daily even in the offseason. Now only a couple of times a week. 

    Embarrassing from Bowey there.  High school stuff

    • 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.

      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.

      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?
