Gold Coast losing it rather than Pies winning it.

    That free and 50 to Crisp was a disgrace

    What do you mean? Disgraceful by Ellis or the call by the umpire?

    Damn shame.

    Thought the Suns were the better team tonight, but just couldn’t capitalize.

    I thought the Pies were the most likely to drop out, but that’s gone now. GC really could have won this with a bit more composure. That Holman play on in the goal square to put them in front right on 3 quarter time summed it up.

    Umpires sure followed Gil's and Eddie's orders in the last quarter.

    Hey watch out for the Suns in years to come. ??
    Still over exaggerating their talent imo 

    That 'superstar' Rankine is just a Kent Kingsley in disguise too

    Geez the Suns are a frustrating team to watch. They could have easily won that if they had more composure. A lot of dumb players too.

    Holman again you [censored]

    I'd love to check his bank statement after tonight's performance.

    It would read something like this 

    Miscellaneous payment  CR;  $50,000

    Agree. Played a good first game. So over hyped. Then done zero since. Frustrating type who loves a trick shot but no pressure or hard running !!!

    Harbrow and Holman right at the top of this list.

    Well that was disappointing.

    But not nearly as disappointing as us losing to Sydney.

    Complain all you want about Holman, Harbrow, Swallow, Cox or the umpires, but it all shouldn't matter.

    GC had chances but blew it.

    18 frees to 8 in Mudpies’ favour.  Similar disposal numbers.

    That small crowd managed to influence them.

    There were some inexcusable errors by the umpires, none of whom should get a final.

    ( but Margetts will, in Perth, and help his boys over the line.)

    Think his point was more that if we didn’t [censored] up repeatedly losing to bottom teams then none of these results would be relevant.

    We’ve done this to ourselves.

    100%

    I think it's fine for us to hope for results to fall our way (and of course seeing the filth miss is just an absolute bonus) but at the end of the day our club blew it with the opportunities laid out in front.

    • 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.
