Looking at the radar is looks like there will be a fair bit of run hitting towards the start of the game.

wind shifting to sw so rain belt should move north of the g......so here's hoping

Is it a hat or beanie kind of night?


Down from Brisbane, I’m dressed ready for an expedition to Antarctica!

Haha, seems rather mild for us southerners. Hat should suffice I think.

Hahaha it’s not even cold you Queenslander. It’s a very mild night. 

 

BOM says 11 degrees tonight hence I will be walking like the Michelin Man.  I was in a singlet and shorts at home this morning in 27 degrees!

Don't worry, it'll be 27 degrees at the MCG tonight as well.  Fahrenheit, that is.

I’d go beanie. Seems mild now but is bound to be chilly in a couple.

I am the same. A soft or sensible, looking for comfort, Victorian.

  • 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.
