    Back to backs at Adelaide Oval but no trip to Geelong

    With 5 day break no less…

    Bye in Round 6 is good. Round 3 would have been better though, although 5 days break not too bad as team would most likely stay in Adelaide?

    Don't jump the gun. They'll get us when Geelong are given the right to host a Preliminary Final against us.😅

    Pies in Round 24 will be HUGE. Freo, Port and WCE twice is interesting.

    The back to backs in Adelaide is the only downside 

    Yeah what a bizarre scheduling

    Why make us have such a short break? I suppose we will stay over in between games, but it's still a big ask to back up against two good sides in such a short time.

     

    ON THE PLUS SIDE, NO GEELONG IN GEELONG!!!!

    7 interstate "away" matches, plus Alice Springs.

    But we don't go to Tassie or Geelong.

     

    Double ups against Pies, Lions, Port, Freo and West Coast, seems a supremely hard draw, with only WCE really expected to be a bottom fixture, and three of those teams being genuine top 4 chances.

    I imagine we'll stay over.

    Surely they will after last year's debacle.

    Have to go no worse than 1-1 in the Adelaide oval double.

    Our first game at the MCG in a final round since 2018. 

    Playing WC at the G for first time since 2014.

    Away MCG games against Hawthorn, Collingwood, Carlton and Richmond which should total an excellent 14 MCG  games, 1 more than last year.

    14 games at the G, most we have had there in forever. Double ups are fine, Port and the Dogs to slide hopefully, Freo and West coast are good and then need to match it with Collingwood and Brisbane.

    Perth x2

    Adelaide x 2

    Brisbane

     

    seems like a heck of a lot of travel 

    Same amount of travel as 2023.

    On the crucial element of five-day breaks, only four teams – Adelaide, Melbourne, Richmond and St Kilda – have been handed two. Essendon, Hawthorn, North Melbourne, Sydney and West Coast have escaped without any.

    • 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.
