Just heading out to go for a train ride down the length of the Busselton Jetty in WA with the wife and kids. Weather is miserable here, cold, wet and I’m 3500km away from the G. On the plus side, the footy starts at the traditional time of 1.20pm here so that should bring back memories of my childhood!

Really, really want another win today, I’m getting gready!

    Well, I've tipped the Pies to win. So I've done my bit to ensure a Melbourne victory.

    boooooo

     

    Well I'm just about to head off from The Manor in anticipation of a Dees win, a gutful of booze and, happily, not being followed by a Moonshadow.

    My info is that Moonie has put his nethers before footy loyalty and is locked in a steamy tryst in a romantic cottage by the sea.

    WHAT...???

    I’m nervous, haven’t liked the commentary in the last few weeks having digs at oppo supporters. We must remember where we came from, be humble and focus on winning. Thank god the “what they’re saying” threads have stopped. Let’s win, go to the bye 9-3 and rest some sore soldiers. It’s a long year with a tough run home, let’s not get cocky. Collingwood midfield is elite and they have some smart and skilful players, a real test today, go dees

    Pretty nervy about today. Hope it all goes to plan. Need to put some time into atom Phillips he’s been getting away with murder lately. Starts with Big Max, let’s go Dees time to make a statement!

    Most probably SWYL but I suspect it is being used in ....shall we say ....  a manner likely to void any warranty.

    The teams who have beaten us badly this year boast an impressive array of small forwards. My main concern today, surrounds our ability to deal with their small to medium forwards. Really hoping I don't see too many Collingwood speedster leaving Lewis and Vince trailing behind as they run in to goal. I'd like to think we've made the appropriate structural changes since the Hawthorn and Richmond games to ensure we don't get exposed out the back. Our forward line should be too good for them and our midfield should beat them at the contest. It's scary to consider what the rest of the season will look like if we win and win well today.

    Round 23 Elliott had a pretty good day,glad he's not playing.

    He and Fasolo seem to cut us up every time.

    I've had a feeling about this for a little while now.

    I rate Collingwood & Buckley, they've learned their lessons well.

    Could this game be the GF preview for 2018?

     

    They haven’t planned this well. Slide time at 2pm and gates open at 1.30. Lines are building big time.

    Whinge over!

    Just leaving the gaff now. Keys? Yep, Wallet? Yep, Scarf? Yep, MFCSS? - Like herpes Yep.

    • 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.
