    Carp coach or not, Bucks has integrity. People call him a figjam, but I trust his moral compass way more than Hird’s.

    Both Richmond and Collingwood have been poor tonight. Skills below average.

    2 bottom of ladder sides 

    Richmond were more awful early

    should have been 6 goals down.

    treloar and prestia can win the ball, but their disposal leaves a lot to be desired.

    Feel for Pendles...if he doesn't get the ball they're stuffed.

    What a great player and user of the ball in amongst that lot.

    Ya I'm sure people thought that of Hird (and still do, he has a weekly column in one of our daily rags ffs), but I wasn't being serious.

    Neither side will make finals.  Pay them no heed.

    Overall yes, but both teams' pressure would've accounted comfortably for 2013 Melbourne. That side was wholly non-competitive.

    Richmond are massively in denial though. How you could be chuffed with that win is beyond me. Collingwood couldn't kick straight in front of goal to save themselves.

    List wise they are in huge strife. Prestia and Caddy are a bandaid for a broken leg.

    But we are talking about pies & tiges ....not the Dees ?

    Both will be bottom 6 on that showing. Absolutely woeful. They may be bad but surely not that bad. Richmond has West Coast next week while the Pies have the Swans :lol:

    How bad has the pies recruiting been?? Jesse white getting a game? Defence is horrible. They have sold the farm for a couple of mids but have no skilful players. 

    Buckleys understanding of footy is poor

    • 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.
