    Do I interpret that to mean there will be two different jumpers produced? If so, wouldn't that diminish the value of the jumper?

    Mind you, Rick Milne has a small piece each Saturday in The Age where he values sporting memorabilia. It's fair to say according to his advice that most sporting memorabilia produced today doesn't have much value, at least in a monetary sense. I also appreciate that many people buy memorabilia for the same reason they buy memberships - that is to support the club financially. 

    I’m not sure mate but I’m one who just buys it to support the club not to make a financial gain.

    The web site has very little on anything LH, no info on training times, player injuries, nothing but a few fluff pieces. This is in my IMO the result of reduced staff levels. 2021 will see us with less info than normal from the site. We will have to work around it for info.

    You'd be better off buying RCL (Readcloud) shares.

    Or maybe the club doesn't want to say if we missed the $1m target (before Christmas) by some margin.  Otherwise I see no reason to not put it on the website - they put stuff and fluff up for all sorts of things.

    The $1m was a key part of being a 'non-assisted' AFL club.  They might be a good questions to ask tomorrow night...btw any idea how questions are asked tomorrow night.

    You have to send them in on a form from the original email. You had to nominate if you wanted that part and they would send a log in address. So far with 24 hours to go I have not received anything. I will ring them tomorrow if nothing turns up by mid morning.

    Well it is 9.30 on the morning of the Zoom and no email as yet. I hope I am wrong but this looks like disaster written all over it. I will ring a bit later. Trying to think positive.

    Thanks od.

    I looked at the emails from the club and they said 'Registrations' close on Dec 8.  No idea if that is significant.  There isn't much on the website.

    I guess it is now too late to ask questions.

    Staffing levels aside, the fan forum is far too important for the club to not post updates/reminders/question forms on the website rather than makes us trawl thru emails or make phone calls.

    Does not start to 6.30 so even being sent at 5.30 or 6.00 would be fine.

    • 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.
