In the unlikely event that Melbourne don't win the flag this year, who would you like to see as Premiers?

I've only included those teams that I think still have a chance at this stage of the season.

My preference would be Fremantle because they've never won one, followed by Gold Coast then Brisbane.

    I won’t remain anonymous.
    Quite sure I’ll be alone in my choice and I’ve boldly declared my second team before, so… join the dots! 😃

    I'd personally only want the Saints to win a Granny as I know how many tears I shed whilst watching replays, interviews with past and present players the live game and the many docos that came after we won. Everyone else can let me put it mildly. SABFD. Especially the interstate teams.

    Technically, that means that if our preferred alternate premier beats us in the GF, we will be happy.😒

    I DON'T THINK SO!

    Lions for mine.  Like Fagan and remember attending Fitzroy's last finals series back in 86 with some Lions supporting mates.  Be happy to see them take the choccies if it isn't us.

    Voted for Brisbane - I find Fagan likeable. F Freo - 2 team state with ludicrous facilities etc. - happy for them to remain flagless.

    St Kilda would have had my vote, as we can relate to their supporters' pain at their premiership drought, but not for a couple of years so it gets beyond our 57 years of pain.

    Geez, I thought I’d picked an unpopular team… someone’s picked Geelong!

    Must have been Jaded… have to say, it is still ours to lose i am not ready to concede anything, I would personally like to beat Collingwood in the GF.

    Absolutely none of them. However I did give a vote and  it was for the saints.

    Gold Coast Suns. Particularly if they beat a VIC side such as Geelong or Collingwood.

    GC are the side that least bothers me and Melbourne would be a ghost town on GF night.

    Freo, i used to play for a Dockers and we had a partnership with freo, playing an annual east west game with their east perth reserve side's juniors at the time and the players would give us a clinic after a melbourne weekend game the following morning.

    followed by the blues - controversial but my mum and auntie's side

    and the suns coz it would be phenominal for them and my two buddies up there ;)

    lastly the lions coz i don't know any supporters so it would'nt stir me up

    WCW your posts are normally so good and quite funny and then you go and blow all your good work by fessing up a few times on Demonland that Carlton are your second team 🤮. I just don’t know how anybody can have that arrogant club as their second team, my sister and niece are fanatical Carlton supporters and I still hate that Club. But each to their own, keep up the good work.

    I don't think I could handle the build up to that game. Of all the teams, I would hate losing the GF to them most of all. My heart would give out before the first bounce

    Sainters because i can relate to their pain.

    Cast my vote for Freo and I forgot about St Kilda. I'd like them to win one soon but I SO don't want them challenging while we're at/near the top and  taking the 'neutral' crowd from us. I think in a GF we might still be 'neutral' favourites against anyone except the Saints
    Once we've won 3 or 4 that wouldn't be the case and I wouldn't care any more ayway.

    I want all 17 Clubs to be in pain 

    I have seen too many opposition Clubs win flags. If we Fail to defend our Status i will have no interest at all

    As long as Richmond don’t win. Their nuffy supporters will say that Melbourne only won in 2021 because of all the injuries Richmond had.

    • 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?
