What is the atmosphere, there at the G?

    Remembering back to the wet night game against the Tigers in 2015 when a very young Jesse Hogan took on Alex Rance and more than held his own, taking some big marks and snagging a couple of big goals in a   Demons win.

    Maybe tonight it will be Luke Jacksons turn.

    Not to mention Matthews cleaning up Peter Giles on the MCG when he was blind-sided. Absolute dog act.

    Anyone else building up a bit of angry-misty-eyed emotional chaos?

    I haven't been this wound up before a non-final since Neale Daniher's final game.

    Which Nathan Jones played in as a teenager just a few games prior to playing in David Neitz's 300th.

    I'm becoming really angry at Richmond for even having ambitions to get at all in the way of Jones' triumph.

    I have been able to do nothing all day except bounce a tennis ball against a wall and repeatedly catch it...

    Martin a very good footballer but maybe he should consider a career change.

    Curtain call for extras in the new Mad Max Gawn epic  is about to happen. 

    Dusty just add black leather, with studs,  a Harley and for good measure a jail break.

    Go you mighty Demons!!!!!!

    This event seems to be eclipsing the traditional game.

    • 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.

      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?
