It’s my wedding. Wedding planning is about as enjoyable and good value for money as being a Melbourne member. 
A lot of stress for a day of good fun. 

Awesome. Hope your day goes off like a frog in a sock.

Plenty of us to cover the worry of pre-season injuries so you can concentrate on getting your lines right at the altar. Dont want you fluffing your "repeat after me".

Relax, we got this !!

    All the best for your big day, Jaded. And good luck with the recovery from your surgery.

    Your occasional diversions into your private life is my favourite non-Demons part of Demonland.

    Best wishes for your nuptials from me as well, Jaded.

    They say that marriage is a great institution but, then again, who wants to live in an institution?  ?

    Just saw Maxy at lunch. Can confirm:

    • he ate fritters and poached eggs (will this impact his run for captain??)
    • he cannot fit through door frames
    • he was limping but also smiling

    Just wondering whether with these injuries (including Nietschke's season ending acl) it might make it more likely that a Pre-season Supplemental Selection would be utilised?

    Well it's already a fait accompli I reckon

    Brown and Harley have been offered list places for 2020.

    The injury rule for long term is another avenue which we will have to consider very soon I would think.

    A ruckman or Ben Sokol perhaps.

    At least you will end with a successful outcome.

    Congratulations, this life event far more important than training news. The team have it covered.

    and hopefully the beginning of another increase in membership.

    • 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?
