It is sad Redleg that the enjoyment in my Mondays is now down to sandwich fillings.

I can only dream of alternatives during the Footy season

I think your mondays will improve when we get our forward line back and /or you eat twice as many sandwiches.

    I think that banana sandwiches will need to be on the menu every Monday because I cannot see the MFC improving this side of the mid year break.

    You know you can buy those banana chips, they are quite tasty and will take your mind off the footy.

    Spare a thought for me. On monday I tape all of the footy shows and watch them, Classified, 360, Couch, Talking Footy, Open Mike and it is hard to do when you lose, which we almost always do.

    I can.

    Only if we get our forwards back.

    I honestly believe if we have our best side playing, we are now not that bad.

    I liken it to therapy. Sometimes it's cleansing. Depends upon the magnitude of the loss though. I think tonight will be more cleansing. More positives to take out basically.

    I agree. And I'm happy with the decision on Tyson. Very happy.

    But I think we can make more improvements in the meantime. More risks, lowering eyes without our tall timber forwards, and quicker decision making - less hesitation.

    I'd like if we had our best back 6 in too.

    I noticed Damian Barrett put the boots in again on the Sunday Footy Show. Hutchy reminded him that we had no forward line available and lost 2 before quarter time. I am convinced he has a clear dislike for the Dees.

    He should focus on how much North have ramped up their FD and if it's working. Maybe he could put together something good, seeing they've been tipped for top 4 by many and the fact their club has high expectations!

    Speaking of the blowtorch, wouldn't mind the Swans bouncing back against the Pies this week.

    Would love to see the Pies remain on the bottom after two rounds....

    That might be our spot.

    That may well be true. I'm hopeful of McDonald and Garland getting up. And perhaps Viney.

    Why can we only recruit bad or injured players?

    Glad your're online F l o g g er. I'll give you chance to regain your technological credentials, which you lost when you were unable to advise me about changing my browser. (or would it be more correct to update a browser).... Anyway it seems, no matter what I try, that I cannot upload images to this site. The explanation is that they are too large ( I've heard that before). Any clues?

    H_T

    Surely you are dagging us!

    Garland has not even been in normal training for two months and Viney has played part of one game and had concussion two weeks ago after missing about four weeks of pre season training.

    I would think he needs two weeks at Casey minimum before appearing at AFL level.

    Things must be desperate up Romsey way when you start asking IT advice to a guy on a footy forum. Do you want Dr Mubutu to give you advice on your heart procedure?

    Don't tell Moonie but I have some experience in the IT area.

    Well it seems Moonie was correct. I extend the hand of friendship and you rebuff and insult me F L o g. What a vindictive and ugly world we live in. I shall seek solace with a clacker at the Gat.

    Well that's what I would expect from Borewood. BTW your comment about hayseeds and emesis did not go unnoticed.

    Anyway, I'll ask Stuie for IT advice.

    • 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.
