Anyone know which player had the most intercept marks on the ground? I can’t find the stat and I really need it to win our yearly grand final footy draw I do with my friends. There’s a lot of wine riding on it!

Gawn, Martin, Oliver, Salem, Cordy and May all tied with 2 intercept marks.

What a wonderful post.  A moving tribute to so many.  A credit to you, 'Layzie'. 🥂

Thank you for the lovely words about myself:  @Premiers Please never ever change, I hope your name is the only thing you change come to think of it. I have so much respect for you on these boards and think you offer a hell of a lot. We love you, that's all I have to say right there. 

I will change my name back to 'Lucifer's Hero' but only allowed one change a month so 'Premiers' will have to stay a while.  Oh, and Jayden will be back as my avatar.

@Premiers if there was a 'You're welcome' reaction I would have done it :)

Probably been said a few times on here but...

One positive from not being able to go to the MCG and watch was being able to watch with the family at home.

Unlikely the Mrs would have come despite following Dees, and two boys too young to take to bigger crowd games and unlikely to score GF tks.

I was able to enjoy at home an intensely watched game with all of them - a rare event

My 5 year old knows all players names by number and recognition on TV. And get this, he has the gall to say just after the final siren "I've waited my whole life for this" 🤣

That goal he kicked off one step from 50 with 4 dogs players running at him from every corner of the compass 👏

He's a young bloke who has a fantastic rate of uptake to become the player he deserves to be for us all. Lethal, determined, skilled, productive, who knits beautifully into a team that has taken several years to grasp the concepts that are required to perform impressively. Onyer, Sparrow!


They finally did for us Boys, You Beauty!!

Did anyone go to Casey on Sunday? My ex did even though I told him it wouldn’t be wise after the outbreak. If anyone did, how was it?

I [censored] you not...

In the 1st Qrt I was sitting off the front of the couch, nervously leaning forward

In the 2nd Qrt I sat back in the couch leaned back and enjoyed a beer in a bit more comfort, then thinhs started to get out of hand

In the 3rd Qrt I remained sitting back, until the 1st goal, then I noticed what I'd done, so resumed the forward leaning squat at the front of the couch. Brayshaw made a couple of crucial contests, we regained composure, and despite Bont's goal we looked steadier, and I felt more confident. The rest is history

.... you're welcome everyone ❤💙

The forward leaning squat is the best starting position for the Petracca Salutation (Leaping Double Fisted muscle pump flex 💪 )

It really opens up the red and blue heart chakra.

Well i made it until tonight, then watched the first 10 minutes of AFL360 - completely disolved - wife was worried, never seen me cry before - emotional meltdown

The Petracca goal got that Salute

The Sparrow goal I was catching my breath

Then the Oliver goal received a lap of the house!

Every time I watch the replay (5 times so far) only one question springs to mind… what did Max say to Fritta after he kicked his 6th goal? 

Am I the only one?

"Thanks, Bailey. That was good."

Huddo's call of Olivers 3rd Q goal is spine tingling. Not for clever wordplay, but for just being a primal scream of Oliveeeeeeeeer with his voice wobbling/breaking

I'd make it my ringtone, but I don't want to have any accidents in public.

The word in his ear went on for quite a while and the grins were broad.

No, you’re not alone with that one. I am sooooo curious. It went on for quite a while and by the look on Fritta’s face it was like Maxy was saying something rather devilish. 😉

Yes, my thoughts exactly!

Was it the Petracca interview being interrupted by walky talkies at the back of the pub? 
So emotional.

I whipped some poor bloke sitting behind me in the face with my scarf after Clarrys goal. Lost the plot! Teared up. That was the moment.

I saw that - I wanna know too!

The Prez hinted that they might do a full replay at some stage. My preference would be as the curtain raiser at our first home game at the G next year just before they raise the flag. Including a lap of honour for Jonesy and Jetta (if he also retires). 

I disagree. The first game is the start of a new season. You can’t dwell on the previous season in March next year. Hopefully it gets up in December. I needs to be later this year, or save it for Family Day 2022

Disagree. 
“Your hair has held up immaculately”

I haven’t felt it for 2 days but the packages on 360 have me welling up! Oh my word. Now Garry talking on OTC. I finally feel it.

WE DID IT!!

i love you all!

    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.
