    Being a Friday night, chances are Carlton is one of the teams in the curtain raiser.

    A Channel 7 directive apparently.

    Understandable given they were power club in the 70s and early 80s....


    Finished work and on my way to the g. I'm not nervous yet but its weird to think im going to watch my team play finals footy. 

    I got asked if could do a double shift tonight and said no way im off to the footy finals.

    I  just hope our young players don't play like the hawks youngsters last night. They were like deer in headlights

    10 mins to go. Beat traffic (hopefully). Get home and kiss the little one. Neck as many bourbons as possible. Get on train. Become nervous wreck.

    In WA and was going to watch at the paddo with western dees but feel too nervous . Will sit at home with a shandy or two. Lose and will mope around , win wish I had watched at pub but be glad I didn’t as I would be a wreck on Saturday!

     


    Almost time for my early exit.  It's been a very unproductive afternoon.  Heading in from Geelong on the train with my 16 year old son.  Been waiting for this moment for 12 long years.  

    Hopefully the players are feeling much calmer than I am.  Go Dees!!!

    Sounds like dees supports may need their own AA branch!

    About to arrive at the Duke for a few calming pre-game Boags. 

    Coopers pale long neck at ponyfish island , such a melbourne thing to do . 

    Was frightened to see the speed of the game last night , have we produced anything this season that resembles that ? Probably not 

    we are cleaner and trying for bigger things hopefully we can play our game tonight. 

    Cmon demons

    Well I wasn’t about to stand there and scull it out of a brown paper bag in front of everyone.

    At 10pm tonight it would have been a different story.

    • 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.
