GATHER ROUND 

AFL's Festival of Footy is on this weekend as Adelaide will host all nine AFL games this weekend across three different venues.

It's set to be a big game of footy in a top-four clash on Saturday afternoon, with Melbourne taking on fourth-place Essendon this weekend. The Dees are having a hot start to their season only dropping one game to the Lions from their first four rounds, and will look to bring this form into the match.

The Bombers have also had a strong start with three wins and one loss to begin the season, and are proving to be a legitimate contender this year. This match is shaping up to be a blockbuster.

Fans are encouraged to get down to Adelaide Oval early, before the first bounce at 3:40pm (local time). Tickets to the game can be found here.
