    Bennell’s highly unlikely to play against Carlton - Tom Browne.

    I was at training this morning and watched some match simulation. There was a five minute period where Bennell lit up the place. He definitely wasn't holding anything back today.

    Fantastic news that Tom Browne is wrong again or Fantastic news about Bennell? Or Both!

    Fantastic news.

    Honestly, in an AFL media landscape overrun with nuffies, it's a genuinely impressive effort that he manages to still stand out as the nuffie king.

    Apparently he's Jeff Browne's son, who's a highly influential figure at channel 9. Says a lot.

    Harley on at 4:50 in the above...

    … hard not to feel his excitement and determination to make an impact and pay back those who've supported his journey. 

    Officially very excited to see him run out in the Red and Blue.

    Just watching the way Harley caries himself in this interview, you can tell that he is a player that oozes confidence in his own ability as a footballer.  Even after all this time out, he seems 100% ready to go about business and put his talents on show for all to see.  Not in an arrogant cocky kind of way necessarily, but in a very self asured confident kind of way.  We haven't had too many players like that at the MFC.

    So stoked that he has got this far, particularly given that some people thought the exercise was a complete waste of time.  Really looking forward to seeing Harley play again and even better it being in the red and blue.  Whether it's for 1 game or 100, I get the sense that it's going to be a great ride and as a supporter I'm just going to sit back and enjoy it without worrying how long it might last.

    Wow! Good on him. Can’t fault his preserverence. I was one who said he wouldn’t play again, because of his injuries 

    Happy to be wrong if he strings games together

    Don’t think his Dad is with Nine anymore. He married one of the richest women in Australia, Rhonda Wylie, a few years ago.

    Really great that Harley been rewarded and so well deserved.

    its been a real team effort so far medicos coaches players and who knows what the result will be.

    It just may be a defining moment in our journey and the team can start fulfilling its now huge potential.

    This Round2 team is 5 goals better than Roind 1 in scoring potential!

    Exciting times. One of the most gifted players to ever lace up a boot IMO. If he could remain injury free and get back to consistent football, he could really change our fortunes. Its a big "if", but he is now out there amongst it. So very happy and excited. Good luck to Harley.

    • 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.
