    @Bitter but optimistic

    I presume the yo-yo was red and blue ?

    Does it still work ? 

    I attended the finals of the yo-yo championships at the Palais theatre in Melbourne many years ago. Pretty sure it was sponsored by Coca-Cola. Sensational show. "Rocking the Baby" was a stand-out.

    Ive been pretty reserved so far in a awful start to the year, but its time to tip the magazine racks if we dont get it done tonight.

    No "we have underdone players"
    No "Its at Geelong"
    No "It's wet and horrible for footy"

    Nothing short of a win Dee's.
     

    .....its a bit warm..

    Pathetic crowd for a home game against a Victorian team in Round 3. 

    Such a shame, we only have ourselves to blame. Could have been huge.

    Loved that the fireworks were in synch with hell’s bells drums, a sign of things to come perhaps......


    Jack Viney doesn’t look right. Running on his own. Not doing the fast run throughs. I’m concerned.

    Feel like it's a coin flip this game. Nothing much else to say,  hope we keep it in close. Ready to go.

    Maybe instead of a flying eagle , we could get Robbo to paraglide off the southern stand?

    Without the paraglider. 

    why is there so much about the druggies on our home game telecast...happens all the time I dont want to ehar about the opposition.

    Not slobbo , meant Russell Robertson, but I see your point though

    Well this is it isn’t it, both teams under the pump, both having played diabolical footy for the first two rounds. It’s time we bring it or we can kiss any chance of finals for my mind.

    • 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?
