    I've met 2 North Melbourne supporters in my entire life. Where are they all aha

    I caught a train towards town from Kensington station last year on a day when they were playing at Docklands and it had a fair few Roos fans on it. I'd never seen so many in the one place. They must all live in that Kensington / Flemington / Ascot Vale corridor along with Essendon supporters. It's then pretty much Bombers territory until you get close to Broadmeadows where Collingwood take over.

    Ahead of the curve with the points system.

    Ahead of the curve with the future pick trading.

    And now I reckon he might be ahead of the curve with the lower draft pick limit... Wait and see I guess.

    Great news. (And he's just started his run up for his first round 1 shot at goal.)

    Assuming North and the Lions finish in the same sports this year (to make the 4th round swaps relevant), we ended up paying around pick 38. That's pretty good going from the guy most don't seem to rate!

    And just like that I like a Norf player. It's amazing how a different jumper just makes the hate all go away.

    That's crazy good if true. 

    Even the 4th round steak knives are surely in our favour!

    Norf - death riding our future fourth now :)

     

    It isn't even our future fourth .... it's Brisbane's future fourth! North will be death riding Brisbane!

    That appears to be a good deal for us.

    Geelong traded 30 to North for Shaun Higgins.  Let that sink in!

    And he's leaving...? Is that still happening? Any intel?

    • 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.
