    Life on Earth is expected to die in 1.3 billion years. Better win one before then.

    Would be peak Melbourne to win one when no one is around to watch it.

    Either 2 or 3 before all our top liners really drop off and our current 22-4 yos are peaking,  ala the pies and cats last few years

    Or 10+

     

    The girls lost 2 practices to bottom 8 teams from last year... and our draw is disgustingly hard. Be lucky to make the 8

    Depends how Serious the Club want to actually get there. 
    it’s been said many times, but this offseason is super critical in terms of the Clubs future 

    Get it right and we could fly again soon 

    To save yourself time and effort you should copy and paste the above because give or take a word or two it’s pretty much your response to just about everything.

    I know right. Dontchya just hate it when your Club is not serious in wanting a premiership?!

    Also, NEWSFLASH! “This off-season is super critical in terms of the Clubs [sic] future” Bet you didn’t know that!

    I’m fine with reading your truth, it’s the saturation of your truth that’s the issue. You trot out this generic type of phrase which really doesn’t mean anything.

    Incidentally, you said:  “Depends how Serious the Club want to actually get there.” Your exact words. This begs two questions. (1) Do you truly believe our Club is not serious in wanting a premiership? (2) If yes, you truly believe that… why on earth do you stick with a club who isn’t serious about wanting to win a premiership????

    To have some fodder to build a context...  probably have a clearer idea at end of trade and draft.

    In my view it's not even on the horizon. So much to fix.

    Could be as soon as next year if we get the next 5 or 6 months right. There are reasons for our decline which we have some control over.  There are also reasons we have little control over. We lost by less than a kick to three highly credentialled finals teams in the last 6 or 7 weeks - Brisbane, Port and GWS. That was far from full strength/health. I completely disregard Friday's result.  6 day break off a very warm day game on the Gold Coast - a bizarre fixturing move, and missing a big number of key players. We are not far away despite all the doom and gloom. And we get a bottom 6 draw!

     

    Correct not far off at all. Pick 5. Oliver back fit trac back or big trade if he wants out good youngsters coming on and better draw.   Kozzie lets us down. Good trade. For ANB.  Here we come 2025……..  l hope

    Anyways, you didn’t answer my questions.

    • 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.
