    When I think about 4 AFL memberships and 2 MCC memberships this year that were totally wasted money, I think of how many banana foods and drinks that would have got me.

    Have received absolutely no value whatsoever from those memberships.

    I think of mine as a Charitable donation redleg.

    Not sure if that helps you.

    but it helps me to dull the pain.

    I don' t really see the AFL and the MCC as charities.

    I think that all the contributors to this thread that live in Melbourne should get together at the end of the year for a drink to drown our sorrows and to meet each other.

    I suggest around mid to late November so we can also discuss the drafting and trading that has been done. By then all will be finished except the PSD and Rookie draft.

    We could arrange banana daiquiris or banana smoothies and banana cake, banana bread, banana chips and other banana delicacies.

    What do you all think?

    I think we should meet in Innisfail-an economy under great stress for several years (due to cyclones that have affected us all) and turn it into a national festival.The possibilities are ripe. We should celebrate this great berry.

    Great idea Red. However, it needs to be informal - I don't want to be signing autographs but I want people to feel free to touch my robe.

    Just make sure there are no sharps around we don't want anyone deciding to end the pain that day.

    Otherwise a great idea.

    We all have a cross to bear TBF!

    But feel free to make the trip, Melbourne in November is always good and we have not lost a match in November for a very long time

    I would imagine the idea is all are invited but the notion being it will be in Melbourne. Those living here will find it the most practical to attend.

    I wouldnt think for one moment theres any exclusivity intended...... just a acknowledgement of geography only :)

    Great idea, Redleg. We could also discuss how the boys are training the house down under the new coach ... :-)

    • 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.
