Is it too early to start talking about rebuilding the player list?

Or should I have a banana based drink to forget the past three weeks?

    Speaking of that, congratulations to Emily McKay and her partner, Majak Daw, on the announcement that they are expecting their first child.  Given what they have been through in recent months with Majak's situation, especially the event around December 18, this must be amazing news.

    That said, something about this has got me quite intrigued.  General rule of thumb is that you announce a pregnancy after the 13 week mark.  Looking at my calendar, 13 weeks ago from today is around January 9, which is approx 3 weeks after Majak "fell" off the bridge.  For a bloke that suffered broken hips and a broken pelvis, I would imagine those types of injuries would take many weeks to recover from.

    With all that worked out, it would appear his pelvic region has made an amazing recovery in such a short amount of time.  I would love to know the name of his doctor or physio that gave him the list of suggested therapies/activities to help with is recovery - my wife stubbed her toe this morning, so I want to take her to Majak's doctor to prescribe similar recovery activities that he clearly did for Majak...

    No it isn't too early...  We fallen back, between seasons,  due to the AFL's swift pen.

    And our reckless recent spending of draft picks.   Two  '1sts' ,  for one player...  too high a price.

    Yes,  fantastic news... and I hope Majak stay healthy.

    This is a great positive.

    Have the drink. Unlike the footy club, it won't let you down.

    Probably the safest place right now.

    Depends on whose bed and in whose digs OD.

    Check in the bed and under it. 

    Your sense of decency and piety may be disturbed. 

    Bitters is just using a red herring referring to the Commos.

    • 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.
