Goody spoke of four days off then a good hit out Saturday. Anyone going to Casey for that? Anyone know if it's a morning run or afternoon?

    Guessing it’s a morning match since the VFLW game commences at 2pm out at Casey. No spectators permitted for the VFLW clash, don’t like our chances of getting down there for a look.

    Just watch from the other side of the fence if you're keen as mustard.

    Nobody can stop you from watching in a public area.

     

    Except ones own dignity.

    Top of the table clash, you'd think we'd have the best umpires and the game on in primetime. Disappointing

    Hi TC. It was a remark I made about a Jack Viney instagram pic. I wasn't anywhere near Cranbourne today. Or any egg & bacon rolls sadly.

    Its dinner time up here Rab! After lockdown #4 and now the bye, admittedly missing your pre-match Game Day culinary and hostelry bloggings.

    I heard the Weid kicked six goals in two quarters he played against May.

    Well I did have a nanny nap this afternoon!

    Second hand info, so not very detailed - Heard that Jones was busy, got lots of it, and B.Brown kicked at least 3-4 goals.

    Apologies I don't know more yet.

    Thanks at least that’s something positive 

    Hopefully no injuries

    This must be the strangest thread for at least 2021. Much to do about nothing.

    Also Melksham looked better and Daw apparently pretty good.

    Apparently hard to read too much into it though as it doesn't sound like it was a super intense hitout given the short break.

    The highlight was when someone (unknown) kicked one out of the ground and I marked it and from 50 kicked truly on an angle back onto the ground through the goals leaving MFC madly scrambling for my services as Goal kicking coach?

    Almost as stupid as the Maynard thread which was based on Gadson's thought bubble.

    Used to hope the MFC scouts would spot me doing the same after games at the 'G' as a young bloke ?

    • 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?
