What what say. You have almost done it again but I think Geelong rather than the dogs but it might be a draw. Very hard game to pick. 
doing alright on the demonland list and the local pub as well,  it’s a surprise. One of these rounds I will get 2 and that’s it for the season

Expect to win again but a hard game.

In addition to the Dees I will be heading to the double header on Saturday, im hoping Freo and the Dogs can produce an upset.

Arrived today, seeing Demons/Adelaide and Hawks/pies. Don't hold out much hope for Hawks though

I did not know there was a double header. No Adelaide team being involved this year makes sense. Would be interesting to see quarter by quarter attendance figures across the day. A great day for a neutral supporter to dip in and out of the football and surrounding parklands/restaurants/food trucks.

Norwood Oval is only 110 metres wide with completely straight wings. One of the quirks about Aussie Rules is that there appears to be no official minimal standard sized field to play on.

Yep, aside from our game, the double header is the highlight of Gather Rd from my perspective. Four in form sides.

Huge week.  Gather round.  The AFL copy of the NRL magic round in Brisbane.  
 

But it does spark up Adelaide and gives a vibe.  Trac’s carnival cooking show probably will be the highlight.  
 

I will kick start.  
 

The Bloods culture … blah blah blah.  Apparently so revered.  

So what’s the go with Sam Wicks. And to quote Damo

‘Sam Wicks was given a club-imposed one-week break for “who knows?”  Some off field romantic dramas.  Damo correctly states “if he was one of the Swans’ top-five rated players, would he have been given the break? In sports selection vernacular, he was expendable. The break has ended, and no senior team recall’.
  Ah yes.  The mighty Bloods culture is fallible.  

anyway Essendon Edge on show tonight? Let’s see.

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had

    CENTIMETRES by Whispering Jack

    Our game is one where the result is often decided by centimetres; the touch of a fingernail, a split-second decision made by a player or official, the angle of vision or the random movement of an oblong ball in flight or in its bounce and trajectory. There is one habit that Melbourne seems to have developed of late in its games against Carlton which is that the Demons keep finding themselves on the wrong end of the stick in terms of the fine line in close games at times when centimetres mak

    MELBOURNE BUSINESS by The Oracle

    In days of old, this week’s Thursday night AFL match up between the Demons and the Blues would be framed on the basis of the need to redress the fact that Carlton “stole” last year’s semi final away from Melbourne and with it, their hopes for the premiership.  A hot gospelling coach might point out to his charges that they were the better team on the night in all facets and that poor kicking for goal and a couple of lapses at the death cost them what was rightfully theirs. Moreover, now was
