Where do people think we are on the Premiership Clock? 

I have us somewhere between 5-7pm as of today.

I have only had us around 11pm once, the year our beloved Stynes ran over the mark.

I think it is like a window but with a clock in it? 

"A symbolic clock is as nourishing to the intellect as a photograph of oxygen to a drowning man."

 

Currently broken. The hands are missing, the springs are loose, the cogs are worn, the glass is cracked and the battery is flat. The alarm still works. If it can be fixed who knows?

The Clock blew up last September in Perth

No one has any idea how to fix it, but we always dress smartly at Functions

What a load of crock

WTF?  It may be a load of crap or a crock of schitt but that saying makes no sense at all!

And don't forget to take off half an hour because, you know, all those South Australians ruining the club.

If you threw that premiership clock out the premiership window, you could watch time fly.

Yes, it's Sunday and I'm bored.  Come at me.

If you threw the premiership clock out the premiership window in summer it could be a premiership drought, however at MFC never a premiership hangover.

Premiership clock is least of our issues......

Club can't sustain success for long enough period to even contend for a flag!

Tigers & Pies are an example of clubs that can

Tigers 3rd prelim in a row

Pies 2nd prelim in a row


It’s called a premiership century rather than window/clock for all long suffering Demons, next year were 56 years in deep!

Or if you want to be positive and talk this century, we’ve only been waiting 20 years!

I have an awful feeling that we actually had a very small premiership window in 2018. A couple of close losses meant we ended up in Perth for a Preliminary Final instead of the MCG and our window shut.

  • 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.
