There is great joy in watching two arrogant clubs which tried to bulk-buy their way into finals each taking turns at being thoroughly crapulent.

If only Adelaide was playing in this game too. Then I could watch every non-Melbourne supporting member of my extended family feel bad in one glorious night.

No noise of acclamation at the Adelaide Oval tonight. The Bombers lead frees 12 to 6.

That’s because Essendon are everyone’s second favourite team. Even the umpires. 


They continue to talk up Essendon but they are 8-12 at best.

Could never understand the hype but not to worry they will get the prime time games again next year

But wait a minute, wasn’t everyone at the start of the year talking about how well Port had recruited?

Ollie Wines is slowly becoming an overrated player for me.

Give me Angus Brayshaw every day of the week.

I REALLY want the cats in the first week, I feel like beating them in the finals would exorcise some demons for us 

Sooo let me get this straight... Dons can’t play finals and Port have a chance to go into the 8 and how Cats lose... 

Port look terrible and Ess are over celebrating!

This would be the best game i've seen Essendon play this year.

Agreed 100%.

If he was a Melbourne player we would be pulling our hair out at his poor foot skills and lack of speed.   Covers the ground like a turtle.

CATegorically.

Me too.

Finally, Viney would get to play them in 2018.

Boy, wouldn't it be funny if Essendon win and it turns out we would've made finals regardless of losing our last two games? ?

Poor old Watts. Would be lucky to get a game at Casey the way he is playing. Looks to be totally uninterested in going anywhere near the ball unless it lands in his lap. Doubt he’ll get another contract.

I’m just so glad that for once the destiny was in our hands and we were good enough to make sure of it without having to rely on other results.

Yeah but we are getting much needed relaxation!

Ridiculous.  It’s Wines v Toumpas as the comparison. 

Brayshaw is a champion. And so is Ollie Wines.

God, I hope he gets another contract.

 

Imagine all the nuffies on here calling for us to recruit him as a delisted free agent if he doesn’t!

  • 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.
