My Melbourne Demons evangelical preseason mission to Mozambique is now complete - including an absurd 2.30am start for the Richmond scratch - and I'm hoping I may have converted at least one or two of the locals for the real stuff's much more time-friendly opening fixture. My concern however is that while grasping the complexity of the rules is difficult enough, even for AFL natives according to our match-day threads, getting their heads around the concept of Round Zero may be a bridge too far. Go Dees! See you crazies on the other side. 


🥳 GAMEDAY!!!

It looks like your Boomer coffee plunger is lecturing your recalcitrant Gen-Y V's on the quality of caffeine/i50s over quantity.

In Sydney with 30 close mates from the Surfcoast. Unlike them I’m in the cheap seats - behind the Demon Army. Last time I sat with the cheer squad ‘Froggy’ Crompton kicked the winning goal. I’ve got a feeling Blake Howes could replicate the feat tonight.

The dees comms really does need to improve.

I mean Nhill is not even in NSW.

Family road trip to see the game. But need to break the interstate trip curse... 2018 Prelim and Adelaide Oval against Crows 2020 when they deliberately OOB with no free kick, lost by a point. Wish me luck. Go Dees.

    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.
