    I agree about looking to 2012, but in the interets of optimism, note the following:

    1. The President is with us

    2. New modern training facilites open

    3. DEBT FREE

    4. The great G. Lyon is football director

    5. Jack Watts

    6. Jack Trengove

    7. Opportunity to now try a new EXPERIENCED senior AFL coach - first since 1981

    8. The core playing group is young enough still to be moulded

    9. Stefan Martin

    Have I missed anything???

    + 1

    All the above seems to get lost on sow many supporters, who think after the turnover of our list a switch can just be flicked.

    Yeah it probably was a bit harsh to put Bartram in with Scully and Morton. I know he has a crack but after 5 or so seasons you would have thought his kicking would have improved.

    It would be nice for Todd to coach a win. It will be interesting to see the crowd numbers though

    My cousin is a Suns player so yes, I'll be going to watch Melbourne get an easy 10-goal win.

    I will be there! Missed the Tiggies game but am raring to go for this one!

    Don't care if it is the last Scully game. If he goes he goes. Barassi going to Carlton was a bigger travesty.

    I'll be attending for sure!!! Don't take the Gold Coast Suns lightly AT ALL!!! I want the Dees up and firing like none other - its been a tumultuous past month!!! FIRE UP!!! LET YOUR DEMON OUT!!!

    Congrats to Tommy McDonald on his debut and well done on Nev Jetta on getting a gig at long last after a looooong stint injured and at VFL level.

    A kick on the 'G after the game adds value to attending - I love it and it's a tradition that needs to be brought back more often!

    Farewell also to Scully and Morton is at hand.

    If we lose... heaven forbid... our club may not have ANYONE willing to coach them!

    Oh apologises. I misread this thread. I was thinking you meant the Port game. I will certainly be at the Suns game.

    Theres not many things better than a kick on the G after a Melbourne win when your a kid. I used to go out there and imagine what it would be like to be A Jakovich. How big the ground was and how high the stands were with the footys and the seagulls and the rubbish swirling around in the dusk. Id forgotten what its like but i cant go this weekend so if you can take your kids and let them dream, maybe Jurrah can turn it on and kick a bag. Ill be watching on TV probably in a pub in Hedland. Go Dees

    • 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.

    • PREGAME: Essendon

      Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?
