Ha ha, it’s like casino’s now adding extra 0’s to roulette tales to extract more money out of gamblers. It’s all about squeezing in an extra round and getting more people to watch games they may normally not have watched hence more money for the AFL and broadcasters.

If they want to add a round I have a clue, pay attention!

Currently 24 rounds plus one equals 25! I know it is fairly advanced arithmetic for a four year old.

Note:- 24 rounds plus round zero is still 25 yes but the byes you may say. Then have a split round 1 it's not difficult.

What about the teams that have the "traditional opening match" now in the second week of the season.

Spare me!

    Gotta give Carlton fans credit. They are at least smart enough to not celebrate that “win”, but cant say the same for Voss and the players. How could you double fist pump and give high fives like you have just won the Prelim after beating the second worst side in the comp on paper, and only “winning” because Lynch couldn't convert Richmond’s dominance. What a joke of a club..

    We should pump this club in 2 weeks time and end this disgusting 3 match losing streak we have against them.

    If we dominate and get the opportunities Richmond got, Mihochek, Fritsch, Pickett and even a Chandler should cash in handsomely.

    Not to mention that they haven’t had a one goal second half since 1968! 🤣

    How do you have a worst list year after year when finishing bottom for 2 decades?

    Impressive

    Round 0 !

    The stupidity of Round 0 is mind blowing. I cannot comprehend the motivation behind continuing this.

    What does it add to the season?

    Who benefits?

    If it's the vibe, maybe next year we add Round 00! And the year after Round 000. It is so moronic it could only come from the AFL

    People may tune into a NRL game and be converted

    Nick Watson's make-up gives me the uncanny valley creeps.

    Overall this game looks like it is being played on top of a wobbly table.

    Essendon are what a bottom-out rebuild looks like. Got plenty of good kids with potential, but you'd think they'll need a couple more years. And take Merrett out and ... ??

    Fair dinkum we just must beat both Carlscum and EssUndone over the next few weeks regardless of what we do or don’t do in round 1.

    Must win these or lose all credibility.

    Essendon need Paul Roos for the rebuild.

    That last play by the Hawks Weddle goal was brilliant

    Yawn this game style we are seeing now is starting to resemble basketball too much. The mid ground battles for yardage, a turnover or stoppage and ball up have all but disappeared, it’s just running the ball from end to end for shots at goal. Not particularly enjoying watching others play so it will be interesting to see us in action on Sunday.

    I’ll probably come to my senses tomorrow but today I feel sorry for the Bombers. I remember that awful pang when it’s round 1 and you learn that the team is somehow even worse than last year and your season is already cooked.

    They suck, a lot.

    Never ever feel sorry for them. Do you think they felt sorry for us in our terrible years? Nope.

    After they won the 2000 gf there supporters were insufferable thinking they'll win the next 3 flags.

    Nothing has made me happier than seeing their demise & knowing there golden boy contributed to it

    • PREVIEW: Fremantle

      The dominant storyline coming out of Round One for Saturday Night’s clash at Optus Stadium centres on the influence of the big men. The spotlight naturally falls on two elite ruckmen who, five years ago, shared the stage in Melbourne’s memorable premiership triumph.

    • NON-MFC: Round 02

      The compromised AFL fixture will get another test this week with the first lot of teams getting a bye after only two matches. Despite this Round 2 starts off with two cracking games as the Hawks host the Swans at the G on Thursday Night and then on Friday Night the Crows host the Bulldogs at Adelaide Oval. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • THE STATS FILES: St. Kilda

      As part of the effort to trim the runtime of the regular podcast, we’ve been looking at which segments could be reshaped without losing what makes them valuable. One segment that naturally came into focus was Binman’s Stats Files. Not because it isn’t important; quite the opposite. It’s become such a substantial and much-loved part of the show that it deserves a little room to breathe.

    • PREGAME: Fremantle

      After a stunning victory over the Saints in the first round of the Season the Demons head over to Perth to take on the Dockers who choked in their first match against the Cats. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      One of the big stories of the AFL off-season was the spending spree of Melbourne’s Round 1 opponent, St Kilda. They splashed out heavily, first to retain Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera - the hero of last year’s epic come-from-behind miracle victory -turning him into a $2 million man. They then effectively took out an expensive overdraft to recruit a string of expensive players from other clubs. It was a risky investment strategy and, although it’s still early days, it certainly failed to pay off in Sunday’s season opener, with much of the glitter turning to fool’s gold.

    • POSTGAME: St. Kilda

      Never in doubt!!! In Steven King’s first game at the helm of the Melbourne Football Club, the Dees outlasted Saints in a wild, momentum-swinging thriller at the MCG, running out 13-point winners.
