    The person on the bottom right was not a player but the property steward for some years after Alan Henderson, I don't know his name.

    The players I do know are Alister Nicholson, David Neitz, Adem Yze, Neil Daniher, Clint Bizzell, Guy Rigoni Andrew Leoncelli and Ben Holland.

    Has The Cup visited the Jones family yet?  I would have thought he would be one of the first to get a visit.

    Maybe it has but the pic has not been put up, which would be odd as he was part of it until the last week. 

    Jones holding The Cup is something everyone would love to see albeit not on the ground after playing in the game but still a joy to behold.

    Great to see Buckets Holland there.

    I thought all Hollands were called Dutchy...like all red heads were called bluey, except when they were called sauce...

    The past players look so happy......

    On Leoncelli's left is possibly Nathan Brown...

    If you enlarge the photo dieter, it's definitely Stephen Powell on his left and Daniel Ward on his right.

    I feel as if I know the bloke standing far right but just can't put a name to the face.

    Last 3 top right are medical staff I believe Cunningham, Daff and Fenton.

    There is a short interview with Yze at this event on the MFC website.  Looks great.

    That truly warms the heart!

    Wonderful to see all those faces of joy and big smiles from former Demons players.

    Love the fact that the players and past officials have their families there with Neale Daniher.

    Fingers crossed the 2021 Premiership Cup gets to visit Nathan Jones and his family next. 🤞

    As much as I am indebted to Goody and what he achieved, I don’t think anyone will ever replace the Rev as my favourite coach (in my lifetime).

    • 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?
