For so long this was a very threatening away game. We still owe these booing numbskulls.

    Mum was on the flight. I demanded she give Maxy a "Positive Lingers" but she declined the invitation for such merriment, the old curmudgeon.

    Said they all look super, super fit. My aunty (Richmond) would be spewing, she has a weird fixation for Simon Goodwin. :mahoney2:

    I thought all teams were taking chartered flights.

    Any ideas on a good pub near the ground we should go to before and or after the game. We would love to catch up with fellow demonlanders. Perfect weather by the way.

    My wife always refers to Adelaide as the city of bad hair. Mullets may have a resurgence now but they never went out of fashion over there. Only positive is they have pretty pubs and good vino.

    Doesn’t look like it. The photo Gus posted showed many randoms on the virgin flight and a distinct lack of face masks ?

    The British Hotel, a gastro pub in Finniss St, North Adelaide, a short walk from the ground. Nice public bar with good ales on tap, plus lounge area. Big Dining area out the back. Have not been there for a few years but has been a good pub for many years.

    The Club has organised a meeting point at the Strathmore Hotel across the road from Sky City Casino, $10 imperal Furphys pints, lunch deals etc.

    After the game nice meal at Sean's Kitchen, TKW or the Old  Lion.

    Despite the whole Adelaide is [censored]. They do have somethings going for it. The little wander down from the city past treasury casino to Adelaide Oval really is special. Have some very fond memories of that walk and sitting on and near the hill for the Adelaide test. 
     

    now that’s done [censored] Adelaide it’s a [censored]

    What's the sun in the eyes situation for those sitting in the Eastern Stand on the Top Level (500s) for a 4pm game on a Sunny day at this time of the year?

    It depends on the reflection from the mullet in front of you.

    • 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?
