You have to remember king has come from Geelong in the past few years. A team that doesn't bottom out, consistently plays finals & wins games they should win

Gee I thought tonight's game would had been closer. Gather round has really underwhelmed me

So basically watching kings presser is he wants a response next week. This is really his first test & he now realises coaching sometimes can be tough. The freo game you can kind of excuse because we gave them to much of a start & they're expected to finish top 4.

The bad thing is, we play them again this season

It's just annoying because it's essendon & it was us they had their first win against

We'll probably come out & beat them

We will hopefully learn more from this loss than if we had lost against gold coast

Unfortunately part of the old Melbourne is still there

Interesting to hear kings presser. Would be interestingto see if the club releases footage of him talking to the players after the game. Hope he gave them some sort of spray

Reality check. It's more annoying because now we have to hear in the media about their win. People ask me have I been to gather round. This is why.

So did we get out to a 19 point lead in the 2nd quarter? Ugh it's just frustrating because I thought we could trust this 2026 team. 4-1 would had been great and it would had been nice to extend there losing streak. Thankfully I didn't have to see a second of it. Just hurts after last week's great win. I hate gather round

Why can't we beat essendon?

Um what is happening?

Thankfully I'll be out for lunch today so I won't think about it. But when I check the score hopefully it will be good news. If we win today, hopefully next Sunday we roll into Brisbane at the G with self belief, confidence & a goodcrowd

So the negative side of me & the 2025 & beforehand member thinks this is a game we could drop & it wouldn't surprise me, also it will make me mad if we do drop it. My thoughts are caddy will kick 6, merrett will have a day out & parish will suddenly play his best. The 2026 member sees me as this is a new season, new freshness & I'm confident we'll do this. Our players have more belief & it's a new system. Don't disappont me

I do to. The arrogance of their fans after the 2000 gf, how they thought they'd go on this gf winning streak, the whole peptides saga with them saying we didn't take anything illegal, their obsession with hird. It's hysterical how far they've fallen

Does anyone really miss him? When he & spargo left I though meh. We've got the players to cover them.

Wasn't it? He took that mark like it was a sunny afternoon. Anyway Collingwood lose so that's a good thing.

So I've just seen the score. I'm assuming it's raining, well I hope it is because that's a terrible score

Still no one asked for this

Bulldogs v hawks will be a cracker. Go freo tonight

This result was expected right? Adelaide should have won & it's not like Carlton were ever 5 goals up in the 2nd half.

What the hell was that noise in the background of kings presser? How he managed to concentrate on the questions I'll never know

I'm hoping it was the bulldogs that took their foot off the pedal last week & not essendon doing well. They'll be desperate not to get this losing streak. We must be switched on from the get go. We also need to boost our percentage. Last weeks win will be meaningless if we drop this one

On the Melbourne website under videos there's a short clip on king talking to the players after the game. Said that's the standard now & why good starts are important amongst other things. Hope he enjoyed his glass of red while watching the replay
