We will be 7-0 top of the ladder with the best % come Sunday afternoon.

I am already looking to next weeks game, Saturday night at the MCG vs the Swans who would love to burst our bubble.  They have been a bit wobbly the last two weeks but if they can beat Geelong tomorrow they will be up and about.

    Geeeze this post could go south. 

    It would be the most "Melbourne" thing ever to drop this game. 

    Really hoping we have matured and have the game beyond doubt by half time. 

     

    You're thinking of the old Melbourne. We don't talk about that Melbourne anymore.

    It is the week after I am worried about.

    Folks - I know we are all mentally scarred from the past decades of supporting this club but relax. 

    all I’ve heard the last 6 weeks is - ‘it would be the most Melbourne thing ever to lose this game’

    well we didn’t lose. So maybe we are a good team now. We will lose a couple of games but believe we are a good team.

    Yup.

    We have beaten Sydney once since 2011 and twice since 2006.   The only team left that still owns our souls, and beat us yet again last season when we were in the finals hunt.

    Let’s not get too far ahead of ourselves, we have to win firstly. Out of interest what’s the odds for us going back to back?

    Back to back? I want the 4peat Collingwood robbed us of in the 50s!

    • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

      Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

    • PREGAME: St. Kilda

      With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

    • REPORT: Richmond

      Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.

      The Dees ran another clinic for the second week in a row as they easily accounted for the Tigers in the lightning interrupted shortened match at Mars Stadium in Ballarat.

    • VOTES: Richmond

      Kozzy Pickett was the man of the match last week and has a vote lead over backup ruck Max Heath who didn't play this week and 5 votes over former Saint Jack Steele. Who gets the votes in this weeks shortened match win over the Tigers? Your votes please. 6, 5, 4, 3, 2 & 1.

    • GAMEDAY: Richmond

      It's Game Day and the 2026 AFL Premiership season is almost upon us as the Demons take to the field for their final practice match before the first ball is kicked in anger in 16 days time. What are you expecting to see from the Dees today as they take on the Tigers at Mars Stadium in Ballarat?
