Hopefully by then no masks outdoors

The queue of 40k plus might be issue

any charge ( for anything) , hope half goes to reach

Honestly, do you think when you look back at this moment in the future you’ll think ‘it’s such a shame no one can see the bottom 3rd of my face. That’s the real story here’?

Enjoy it for what it is. It’s a Premiership cup, with our name on it!

Hells, I’d happily wear full PPE complete with gas mask if it meant getting anywhere near the PREMIERSHIP CUP. You know, the one that says WON BY MELBOURNE. 😉

Actually yes I do. I don’t want to look back on it and be reminded of COVID. My face covered, I may as well not even be in the photo.

I’ll wait for the next one 

 

I seriously doubt that you will be able to have a photo with the Premiership Cup at this event anyway. Can you imagine the line for that? With 10, 20, 30, 40, or 50,000 plus people there (or whatever the cap is) there is simply no way that is logistically possible.

Just crossed my mind that by then it might even be realistic for me to make the trip down. Visit family (not one of whom I've seen in six months), visit friends (almost as sparse), do birthday stuff, and go nuts at the 'G.

Should we be planning a Demonland rally point? Should someone bring a banner?

Again it’s my personal choice. I do not want to be reminded of COVID and really this is a time I’d much want to put behind me and forget. Maybe I’m too vain, but a photo of my completely covered up may as well be a photo of someone else. I do not like wearing a mask and hate the way I look when I am wearing one. Every time I’m asked to take a photo, I always take it off. I wear it to help out and because it’s law, but it’s a thing I don’t like. I do not want my one chance ruined by having a photo of me where I hate the way I look like in it. Like I say if that’s the cost I’d rather not have the photo. I’m grateful for the premiership, but as for a photo with the cup having me in a mask is akin to having a stand-in be taken with it. It’s my personal choice

If my premiers jumper hasn’t arrived, then I’m wearing my demonland T-shirt. 

I still haven't taken off my Demon jumper. It might smell a bit by December.

Maybe think of it this way, Cassie: a pic with the Cup isn’t as important as a pic with the Cup in your memory. (If you know what I mean.) 🙂

Nice try but I think the family might still be expecting presents...

Take the family to the G the week before, and combine the two events

well if you go and get a chance for a photo with the cup.....

then just before camera clicks, whip off mask, camera clicks, put mask back on

i'm sure no-one will arrest or shoot you for a 3 second de-masking

Will this event be worth the 14 day home quarantine it will likely incur?

But that is the topic. Us seeing the cup. IF there is a photo opportunity it won’t be worthwhile with a mask


We will be at 95% by then and you will need to be double vaxxed to get in, all will be good.😀😎💕❤️👍

Oh Daisy… I bet you were that kid at school who’d encourage another kid to wait ‘til the teacher is almost sitting before pulling the chair away.

I'm pretty sure once the beer starts to flow the mask compliance will start to slip. Pardon the pun

  • 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?
