For those who do not like looking more than a week ahead come back in 2 weeks. 

 

Why can't I see anything you post?

I can't like anything either.

    You should be able to see them as they are twitter posts. The only thing I can think of is if you are using some type of Ad Blocking software that is blocking the twitter posts from showing

    Whadda you know.

    Duck Duck Go blocks stuff like that. 

    Fixed.

    Ta.

    I've been meaning to do this during the year mainly to keep track of opposition teams with injuries or players coming back for our games. Usually I wouldn't have done this thread so early still being a few weeks away but with GWS' injury announcements today I thought I'd pull the trigger.

    My plan during the year was to open the thread a week or 2 before the game to track the injuries or returning players. They always seem to return for our games. MFCSS I guess.

    GWS getting injury reports by the hour.
    Meanwhile I'm on 24/7 Josh (WCE) Kennedy-watch.

    (Please be injured, please be injured, please be injured).

    GWS are nothing without Greene they are gone. We will beat them?

    It appears that the Swans are getting players back to strengthen their list but look, hey, we want to beat their best combination and any oppo team's strongest side to prove ourselves over the coming weeks.

    And at this stage I now believe we can. Go Dees!

    They did touch us up last year without Greene, Cameron and Patton. In saying that, I believe we are better this year.

    I think McVeigh is their most important player need to stop him big game for Spargo who I would give the job to. Harmes to Kennedy.

    We were shot by that stage to be brutally honest DZ.

    When the games on the line and you need a big brute to stop a man in his tracks, the best man for that is Vanden, VandenBerg, cue the VB music.

    So can we now call the man VB from now on? Three letters seems like too much work! ?

    Well there is AVB and ANB, so we have to distinguish the great man VB.

    • 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.
