wise word OD, wise words.

Are you back in the great state of victoria yet?

 

Saints doing badly takes some of the shine off our win last week.

I don't think this is correct...

The Giants not Sydney had those areas.

 They were taken away from them (GWS) in 2017.

Okay, missed that.

What about the turnaround by bomber after last weeks smashing. 

Bombers look a class above, nothing like the team last week.  maybe its going to be one of those years?

Swans won a flag in 2012 & dogs in 2016 and both have bottomed out somewhat and have managed to rebuild/top up/ develop their lists to possibly contend this year based on their form right now ...MfC still working on consistency to win games and play finals .. enough said

They’ll lose another 3 in that month.

It’s a worrying sign these teams have gone past us again and seemingly we only peaked for one year.

that's one way to skin a cat I suppose...

you can only play against the opposition -banking wins where you can.

seriously, there is only a marginal % that a team needs to be off (see Richmond today) that makes them winners, to losers to getting smashed... week in, week out...

It's a marathon... so treat it like that.

mmmm

Bombers doing what we should have done last week

 

We would have, had we kicked straighter

Obviously that win in the wet against the Giants is still taking its toll on the saints.

50 points down to Essendon at half time is a bad look. They'll be getting the blowtorch in the media next week.

 

St Kilda are looking worse than dreadful.

  • 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.
