    Thanks - pickles? Why?

    "Pedo" surely the best nickname in the AFL.

    Slightly ahead of "spitta" swallow at Norf

    Pedo has to be one of the most unfortunate nicknames in the AFL. Ever.

    I'd never heard of Judy as Col's nickname until the last couple of weeks. When did that start?

    Been around since he arrived at the club as far as I know. I'm not a fan either. Doesn't seem to be used as much these days.

    More 'Humphrey' (because of his quiet personality) or the obvious 'Garlo' these days.

    Kent - Clarky

    Tapscott - Bull

    Thanks - pickles? Why?

    An unfortunate incident involving a pickle and 'the place where the sun don't shine', on a footy trip a few years back.

    I feel like a new nickname for JKH has to be thought up. JK or JKH is a bit boring... How about Barney, stemming from someone else with a similar double-barrel surname

    I read somewhere it was a nickname from when he was a kid. Can't remember details, though.

    Instead, remember Michael Evans (aka Pickles)?

    (Pickles was a nickname given to him by his Mum when he was young, which was reinstated at Melbourne by fellow Western Australian and teammate Cale Morton, who he went to school with).

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.

    • GAMEDAY: West Coast

      It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?

    • FEATURE: 1925

      A hundred years ago today, on 2 May 1925, Melbourne kicked off the new season with a 47 point victory over St Kilda to take top place on the VFL ladder after the opening round of the new season.  Top place was a relatively unknown position for the team then known as the “Fuchsias.” They had finished last in 1923 and rose by only one place in the following year although the final home and away round heralded a promise of things to come when they surprised the eventual premiers Essendon. That victory set the stage for more improvement and it came rapidly. In this series, I will tell the story of how the 1925 season unfolded for the Melbourne Football Club and how it made the VFL finals for the first time in a decade on the way to the ultimate triumph a year later.
