OK, I'll start:

Kangas'll have the tusk ahead of them...

 

Wonder if the North game will be in Hobart and the Cup comes at the same time?

You may very well be on the money but I was under the impression no club will be travelling in week 1 in order to mitigate the risk of COVID.

Will it be a full-length game or a trunkated version?

There's only one way to beat North Melbourne

one bite at a time.

A really mammoth tusk. Or, if you will, a woolly mammoth tusk.

You're all dodging around something.

You know, that mammal in the room?

ivory-ly agree


Off season chat is SO much better when we are not reigning premiers.

At least there is actual speculation as to what the season ahead may bring.

There's lots of speculation on other threads, Faulty! But the cockiness of supremacy always threatens - as is the case here - to lead to frivolity.

For my part, I apologise.

Nah. Just joking.

Can't blame anyone for enjoying the moment, except for the 20 year olds who have no idea what "wait and hope" means.

My boy, who is 16, had to front up at primary school week after week in multiple seasons when we won 2-4 games and cop it from everyone in the school (except from the one other kid who was a dees supporter). 

I reckon even the 20 year olds would understand what wait and hope means and equally deserve to enjoy the moment.

Hawthorn and Collingwood is at Morwell on February 25. Guessing the rest will be announced soon.


I've heard a rumour that for the Melb v North scratch match we'll be playing for the Ben Brown Trophy which will look just like this but with the third finger upright, rather than the second.

That's the official Practice game not the second one that 2 Clubs are nominated to get together and sort out Tomes anDates. 
We play Carlton at Marvel in our Official Clash the date has been publicised by the AFL previously.

Wrong. Hawthorn play Richmond in Devonport in the official games on March 5.

  • 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?
