We should win this easy, lost one game for the year. I need to see a big game from the weid. 

I wouldn’t be that confident as Sharks are a good side full of ex afl players.

Weid has been very good as a fill in ruck and around the ground.

    I got the Weid bit right. He was great in the ruck.

    Yes and I think he is the one for the job next year.

    If we have Grundy and Gawn then he could fill 3rd ruck role until we get another young ruckman.

    I also think the Weid has been much more effective as a ruckman, both going the tap and around the ground in general/his foot skills are excellent...my issue is that he doesn't impose himself enough when the opportunity presents and is often seen on the periphery of packs as an observer. Think Nankervis or Kreuzer. In my mind both added extra value by way of crashing packs, bulldozing with knees and elbows as weapons and thus inflicting damage and slowing opposition. The Weid needs to add this to his quiver to complete the job.

    Some one said to me today they will watch till 5 minutes from the end then  turn off the tv. Then they won't have to see either team happy. Sounds like a good idea to me.

    Funny but Grandfinal day has always been a big deal in our family but Fortunately last year has changed my perspective completely nothing will ever compare to that feeling that I felt this time last year. I feel no love towards either combatant but will watch out of curiosity I hope they knock themselves out and one wins by a point.!!!

    No, it has been cancelled due to lack of interest.

    Understandable.

    An interstate side against a privileged country side.

    Not sure for the PF.

    The GF is about $500 per ticket regardless of where the seat is.

    I wish I had a ticket, 500 would be useful.

    • 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.
