Hahhaha Hahhaha good Christ.

 

Seriously... how frightening is that team going to be in 1-3 years! 

Gawn will play his 100th this season. Guess which game?

 

[censored] thats ridiculous..

Little Spargo playing 14 games already this year will hold him in good stead going into next year.

Big summer coming up for him

Not if we finish 4th. :P

Oh....I forgot...Go Freo!!!! The 100 can wait.

Amazing how relatively inexperienced we still are.

Makes me a bit angry actually with all the pressure heaped on us by the media and yes, the supporters.

Id like to know our average age/games played compared to all the other clubs.

Posted in stats-file. 

The teams going into the season with less experience than us (age we're about in the middle but still younger than the 'Baby Bombers' and just about every premiership team ever - with the young ones generally skewing older than the median where we skew younger): 

Western Bulldogs — 56.4

Carlton — 56.4

Brisbane — 55.2

Gold Coast — 53.5

St Kilda — 52.6

North Melbourne — 51.8

If we snagged the flag it would be genuinely unprecedented profile-wise. I think Collingwood 2010 would be the closest comparison.

That is worthy of Cam Mooney’s ‘Numerology’ segment on Fox Footys Bounce show.

Hope the excitement doesn’t distract him!

  • 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.
