    This the 3rd game in a row, where we are coming back from interstate or playing interstate, against a team either playing at home or with a longer break, or both.

    Great job on the fixed ture AFL.

    I was always sceptical of the multiverse theory Kev... until now!

    At training today, ANB and Viney, had semi competitive drills with each other to end the session, about 10 minutes. 

    They were very close to goal and after slapping, holding each other and turning the ball boundary side they would perform a little snap for goal.

    They had a bit of intention about it.

    We get another one of those next week. Dockers with the extra day break and we will be travelling.

    We saved our absolute best for September last year. Why can't we do that again this year? 

    Perhaps this discussion warrants its own thread. Lots of variables, but too many of them trending downwards or not improving for mine.

    The Bulldogs massive weakness is structurally in defence - so of course our 2 best tall forwards are out.

    Honestly our draw this year has been so hard. It doesn’t get taken into consideration enough. We are up against it every week. I’m really proud of what we’ve achieved to date.

    I agree... another reason to have kept Tomo in and pushed Petty forward

    They could be thinking, they've got to get goals from somewhere. 

    Could also be to set the throw ins from near the goal and not sharking at Weids feet.

    Got a feeling Weid is going to have an Elimination final 2018 type of game tomorrow night.  Based on absolutely nothing.

    BB has been proppy since he limped off at half time in the Adelaide game. We've done well to manage him through the last few games. I don't know if I'm more worried about him missing or that Weid is taking his place. 

    Both

    The odds are against us tomorrow evening. If we win it will be huge .... a sign that the Demon spirit is emerging in time for September.

    That is a magnificent contribution to the thread.

    Weed is playing for Melbourne tomorrow night and he deserves the support of all true fans.

    This must be the most repeated MFCSS cliche in Demonland history

    Geez I hope so. I really truly do. I want the Weed to come out and smash packs, take mark of the year and slot six like Koz did last week.

    It's in there somewhere and today is the day.....but I'll settle for a decent amount of good solid grabs and a few goals. Just something to spark him up to be the player we all want!

    Yes and he will have my full support since he's playing, doesn't mean I have to agree with his selection . If he has a good game I'll be the first on here to acknowledge it.

    Alice is a home game we choose to play away from the G. Two six day breaks coming into next week away against the Dockers isn't ideal. They travelled this week and would be flying back today so not a massive advantage to them. We have a day longer break against the pies and 2 day longer break than the Blues the following week. Swings and round abouts

    Lol at people complaining about the draw. 

    We choose to play at Alice. 

    And we won the flag so naturally the draw will be more difficult.

    • 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.
