    Movin' fine and ready to bust out some Taylor Swift moves.

    Swift? Pfft … I’d say he’s got the moves like Jagger. 🕺 or Travolta

    Numbers are down, 24 in the main group. none who played yesterday at Casey are with them. 

    Light duties include, BBB, Lever, Chandler, Spargo.

    McAdam is in the main squad, as is Melky, Turner, and Hunter. 

    TMac in runners, though full training.

    No May

    I know kev suggested Smacca would be back likely Anzac Eve, but I'd love to see him debut against the Crows and kick a bag.

    Thanks as always kev

    Particularly interested in Melk and Turner being in the main group already.  How well did they move?  And were they involved at all in competitive work?

    No May

    Wonderful news to hear McAdam is finally back in the main squad. Wonder if we'll finally see a return date in the injury reports instead of TBC. Also Melk although he will still be a while away you'd think. And Turner and Hunter back in. Injury list disappearing at the right end of the season. 

    NO MAY!!! Bloody wimp. Take it like a man and get out there. Can't believe he didn't turn up. 

    Ok Ok I'm not saying that to him at Florent. Well anywhere actually. 

    Great news to hear it's only cracked ribs and not broken and no internal damage. Broken are a whole other ball game. Cracked are a shocker if you've ever been through it. Can't see them rushing him back for Crows but it is Steven May so who knows. Would be a great bonus if he's back by Lions game. 

    And great news on Lever. But he's pretty heavily strapped.

    I’m on annual leave so have ridden the bike down for a look today. Eden Zanker was mowing the grass when I got here. 

    BBB has gone back to the rooms but no strapping on the left knee this morning and no limp.

    Incredible training innovation by the Dees. Leaving no blade of grass unturned to get an edge.

    Would be fantastic if he could come in against Adelaide. Will especially help if Petty needs to play down back in the absence of May and/or BB needs a rest.

    Short session. They’re done already. Just Fritta and Clarrie taking shots on goal. Melks, Spaz, Marty, Tracc, Rooey, Sestan running around the boundary.

    Now everyone off the ground except for my boy Melksy. He’s kicking a footy around by himself. Now he’s running along the boundary. He said he’ll definitely be right to go for “the second half of the season.” 🥳🥳🥳

    Sestan last man standing doing tackling, agility, 1v1 marking & groundball drills

    Bowey also...laps

    • REPORT: Essendon

      What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

    • 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?
