They should send a big box to AMW as he has a bit of time to build the Death Star or the Millennium falcon…

    Is it really a coincidence that we have both Harvey Langford and Lego onboard this year?

    No.

    Apart from the team at the club who rightfully deserve the accolades, I wonder if Hamish's profile with the club helped on this?

    Will Max be featuring on Legomasters this year?

    Btw: A big shout out to Hamish who has done a lot work with some sick kids in a very low key way. Top effort.

    Surely this initiative  would present excellent cost-saving opportunities for our new Admin centre at Caulfield...

    As a Lego Star Wars fiend, and the recent inheritor of a very large technics collection (cranes and industrial vehicles), this news has absolutely made my day, probably this year!

    Lego and the Dees have been on an equal footing in my brain, which I know is almost unforgivable in this space, but they have been compartmentalised to be fair. Now I have legitimacy to be as emotionally fulfilled as the moment attending the 2021 GF, well maybe slightly less ... but nonetheless, they can now reside equally without favour and people can roll their eyes as much as they want when I segue from the Dees to Lego and back to the Dees ad nauseum. 

    Huge signing, and massive potential in attracting kids to the Dees, as some have pointed out.

    This must surely be one of the largest international sponsors in the AFL. 

    Massive acquisition will be incredibly important for increasing membership and attendance for the young kids.

    As a financially crippled Lego fan (I have at least 100+ unopened boxes stashed in cupboards, under beds, piled in my study etc, not to mention what is actually built all over the place), this is great!! I loosely partnered with Lego HQ at some point, and I can tell you the hoops and hurdles that must have gone through to get this done would have been significant. 

    Lego is a closely held, still family-owned company who is very conservative with who it partners with, communications, and messaging etc. So excellent work all round!!

    Heard the club has been toying with the idea of this sponsorship for a while.

    You trying to get blocked?

    Very fun partnership. Iga Swiatek was recently sponsored by Lego too and seemed to have a lot of fun during the more corporate photo days. 

    Can’t wait to see what they have in store with the club! Not a big figure collector, but I did buy the Nintendo Entertainment System LEGO set day 1 because it was cool, but imagine an MCG set? Instant pre order

    I just hope they're not left lying around on the change room floor...

    • 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?
