Is there meaningful life outside football?

I would have thought with your great experience of life Mr Leg you know there is.

    Is there a meaning of life outside football?

    Think of it as life adjacent to football.

    ...and so I thought I'd just give it a try: 'Hullo, Mr Google. Got anything on bananas in a parallel universe?'

    Guess what?...

    We'd probably be barracking for St Kilda.

    Or Essendon.

    They would win every year and have 100,000 turn up to games each week.

    Quiet Melb streets on GF week is good by me.

    No they should be their usual busy self, as few will be interested in staying inside to watch the game on TV.

    I will be on the gold coast barracking for Fitzroy lions as I was last year. Sadly I think they will be runners up again.

    i'm not too fussed over who wins

    • lions have gone close recently and were stiff last year
    • swans have been the best all season 
    • both play a watchable style of footy

    Very true. At least it beats the Collingwood scarves on the streets like last year.

    Already been out to Caulfield Park with the woofers. Beautiful day for it. Much pointless running enjoyed. Probably should have taken them to the racecourse instead!

    • 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.
