    @Return to Glory, missing our Grand Final pilgrimage this year. Nevertheless, having a beer now and soaking up all the pre-game coverage - hoping I’ll make it to the opening bounce!! Go Dees!! Next year at the G.

    Have medical subs been confirmed? 

    7 news said it was Jordon on Thursday night, but it doesn’t get picked until an hour before the game I thought…

     

    Watching the all blacks first.   Then the man event

    They just showed the players out on the ground. Hunty is there. Could he be the sub after all?

    And just in case we needed another omen, US Ryder Cup team (favorites) fixed up Europeans on the first day. What were they wearing? RED AND BLUE STRIPES!

    Ugh the storm are currently losing. I've switched over to the 7 coverage. Boys are currently out on the field. 

    Oh it's nearly game time. 

    Well done all you Non Dee Perthites for a projected full stadium and more so if they support us. Great to have a crowd and a reasonably big one at that.

    You'd expect that we'd need at least one emergency other than the sub to warm up, in case of a late emergency, so even if Jordon is the sub, Hunt would have to be ready just in case.

    Jon Ralph just confirmed on Fox Footy that Michael Hibberd will sign a new 1 year deal.

    Thanks Dazzle. I've always been a big fan. Always hard at it. Great decision maker and works exceptionally hard. Provides a good physical presence  and despite age and size is reasonable quick.Totally locked down a few classy players including dusty.

    Came in late this season and immediately had a big impact. Yes dropped off a little towards the end of season but hugely instrumental in setting up our early domination and I'm wrapped he's been rewarded with an extension.

    Less than 2 hours to go!

    I don't know what else to do. I've done some baking, swept, had a drink, cleaned the kitchen, had a drink, swept again (first effort bad or the little man is eating something crumbly that I didn't give him), and reorganised the pantry. I even reformatted an old piece of junk laptop. Oh, there was another drink in there somewhere.

    What the hell am I supposed to do now?

    [censored] me it’s like someone’s died at my place, going to have to put on some music and liven things up. 
     

    Never again this late….

    • REPORT: Essendon

      What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

    • 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?
