    The 22nd of January is part of the school holidays open session series. I know in the past there’s been no training at Gosch’s during the AO but the session on the 22nd at Gosch’s is locked in. We’ve already ordered what’s needed in terms of sausage sizzle stuff and BBQ hire and since that’s done through the Club, there’s no doubt it’s going ahead.

    Definitely bring the little man along 🤗

    I realise this probably doesn't fit in this thread.  But, it was too good to not post somewhere, so I'm sticking it here.  (Sorry!)  Dennis has a point when we all get a bit fired up watching the game on the telly!  😎

    When we first heard about the open session being scheduled for the 14th of February some DA were saying that because it’s Valentine’s Day they might not be available coz plans with their other half etc.

    I jokingly replied, ”I’ll definitely be available because the MFC is my one and only true love.” I expected to get these reaction emojis 😂🤣 but instead I got these ❤️ 💖 which goes to show I’m not the nuffiest in the DA. 😝🙁

    😂  With a rather large airfare attached. I'm currently home, enjoying the warmth and brightness of a Melbourne summer.

    Anyone know where clayton and christian came in the time trail?

    You can't hide your fitness in those

    Times in the time trials are subjective to each footballer. It’s about each player aiming for their best under the circumstances that have prevailed in the pre season and their ability in running u der this pressure. 

    Some players aren’t best times in the group but are still very good for them ie Maysie. and the fitness Chiefs know the scorer with each footballer.

    We all know that but they are mids and need to be doing ok still ... maybe not 1st but certainly not in the last 3rd amongst the talls and newbies

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

      Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    • AFLW REPORT: St. Kilda

      The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
