No at a night with Lever & May at the Sporting Globe Bar. Good night and you get an insight into their personalities and what makes them tick as well as some goss. 

Two questions re the Sporting Globe Bar

1/ what was May drinking?

2/ was Melk there?

 

Surely the f.ck J.Smith (44) is not playing defence again , the selectors must be sh.t scared to try something out of the ordinary. Probably trying to cover their arses.

Melk wasn’t there and May was on the lemonaids.

Interesting to see where Joel lines up. Steven May said he would be playing forward on Wednesday night in answer to a question about our lack of tall forward options. 

With a little over an hour to go before today’s game, it’s worthwhile mentioning that Casey’s closest rival Southport is playing Collingwood at Victoria Park and is getting a bit of a touch up at half time.  Needless to say that it’s highly likely that the Demons are going to finish on top of the ladder and in doing so will provide useful back up to the AFL team’s finals campaign. In addition, this means that a few of the clubs younger brigade should get some valuable finals experience to assist with their development. The first round of the VFL finals are four weeks away and, although he’s listed as being still 6 to 7 weeks away, there are reports that we’ll see Tom McDonald in action with Casey at around this time. Watch this space.

Anyone know if Kade Chandler and the emergency(s) who went to WA managed to get back here for today’s game?

Highly doubt it, they took the red eye last night. Would've landed early this morning

But what about the emergencies? They could have left earlier.

 

 


A little pre match banter on the stream would not go astray.

Perhaps a pre recorded player or coach interview.

Wonder what the commentary will be like. I liked the Bulldog commentary last week except that the microphone levels of the two commentators seemed to be at different levels.

For all the complaints we make about the AFL this has been a great innovation

They’re off in the battle between the top of the ladder Casey Demons and last placed and  Northern Bullants. Kade Chandler is in the team so he made the red eye from Perth and the Casey team appears as selected.

Mitch Brown gets the ball off a pack and snaps truly the Demons’ first.


Looks like the mergencies did get back. JVR goals

  • 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.
