    Anyone have particularly strong opinions about his desire to be closer to his family and friends??

    Should we contrast that vs a 20yo?

    I am surprised that Goody didn’t snaffle him for our senior FD obviously knows his stuff. Cats should be renamed the Poachers, I suppose it is a backhanded compliment but hell they don’t muck around. Could set us back a bit at Casey.!!!

    This go home factor is getting out of control, should only recruit anyone from Melbourne within 5k radius.

    To be fair on a bad day on the Monash it’s a 14 hour drive from Casey to Geelong.

    Flying Jetstar from the MGG to the airport onto Perth, Uber’ing to Cottesloe is only 13 hours (if Dogga goes thru security and Jetstar don’t cancel the fight)

    This lure to/back to western Victoria is outrageous.

    I just got back from a work overnighter down to Portland and let me tell you, the roads are the worst in the state…and don’t get me started on the attitude of the staff at one of the bakeries.

    In saying that, one of the best chicken and salad bread rolls I’ve had from memory.

    The road b/w Port Fairy and Portland is bollocks.

    @Demonstone, got a vibe on where @Beetlegot the roll from?

    Woman who served me had eyes that were set extremely close together, so every chance it was a relation of Tomahawk.

    There's only three bakeries in town but the best salad rolls (and banh mi) may be obtained from the Portland French Bakery which is counter intuitively run by a Vietnamese couple. 

    It's in Percy Street right next to where a certain large sports store used to trade.

    It wasn’t The Bakehouse @Demonstone.

    Perhaps I was being generous with the “bakery” call…more a cafe. This was just down from the SportsPower.

    Either way, I walked away after consuming the roll feeling 5 years younger.

    (Sorry to derail the thread).

    • 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.
