This is what I call for...at some stage of the game I want to see a line drawn in the sand(dermie style).

what would you think if a melee started?..players fined and potentially suspended..worth it?

    Most of the senior blokes would go in with handbags I reckon.

    I can just see it now

    As soon as the melee starts, Cameron Bruce falls to the ground with a fake injury so he doesnt have to get involved

    Nathan Carroll and Brad Miller licks their lips and run in, only to both be flattened by a genuine toughman in Matthew Scarlett

    David Neitz, the only man capable of outmuscling anyone from Geelong, hides behind the goalpost in embarrassment as our players get torn to shreds

    While in the stands, Demonlands resident clowns, Grand Old Fox and realist, decide to french kiss to pass the time

    i really liked what carroll did on the weekend!! jones was genuinally upset after getting tackled and causing a WB goal, and walked back to the centre square trying to keep his chin up and then comes the abuse of the bulldogs midfielders...as soon as carroll saw this, he went to his team mates aid (good practise over summer), but we need more of this

    also, i heard that the bulldogs were niggling davey all day and giving him little corkies all day...this is when players need to stick up for their team mates the most.

    I'd like to see a bit of heart.

    If your getting belted by nearly a 100 points why not....??

    If you can't win the match at least try and win a fight.

    Show a bit of passion and aggression!

    At the moment our players couldn't punch their ways out of a wet paper bag! :(

    Thats what Carrol and Brock were doing over summer! They were training!

    We were all very harsh on them, and now we want them to show heir wares on the track!

    I for one take it all back; Sorry Brock, Sorry Nathan, keep up the good work!

    Spot on boys, to hell with the politically correct blue blood supporters who want choir boys with hymn books out their. I want to see spirit, passion & hardness! Get rid of bruce, wheatley, green & white.

    I want to see the likes of Carroll, McLean, Sylvia, Whelan, Jamar, Neitz, Moloney, P Johnson, Bartram, Pettard, Bode, Martin, in playing real hard nosed footy, we might go down on the scoreboard but we'll draw a line in the sand as far as what is expected our own from now on, as far as the Mighty Dees are concerned.

    IT'S TIME TO BRING BACK THE RUTHLESS & RUGGED ATTITUDE OF THE GREAT NORM SMITH & BARASSI'S DAYS.

    ' then we can have something to build from.

    It says alot when you confuse starting a melee as drawing a line in the sand. :rolleyes:

    It would seem you have a number of mates who confuse playing competitive hard disciplined football with a melee. Its aggression at the contested ball not the opposition player. Its so basic and fundamental.

    Neanderthal thinking at best.

    A disaster in the making.

    More like netball skirts.

    Apologies to all those women who play netball. Even you have more heart than these blokes

    I'd rather see all the players hitting the packs, putting their bodies on the line, running hard to shepherd their teammates, runnign with the flight of the ball,

    True hard stuff.

    Those acts inspire, not a jumper grab and a wrestle.

    • 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?
