Nice to see Thursday night football back.

That Friday night fixture is underwhelming to say the least.

Port v Swans, our game and Eagles v Dogs are all way better

Huge game at the Gabba tonight. Hoping the Lions can get it done. 

Tough game for the dogs v the eagles. I reckon home ground advantage swings it.

We need to account for the dons. If we do there's a good chance we're 2 games clear by the end of the round

Agree - all games are critical but this is exactly the type of game that a genuine contender will win - get it done MFC

 

We want Victorian teams to win and fill the top 3.

Agree

Hate to say it but a Geelong win would be good for us.

A Bulldogs loss is intriguing however.

Girlong ( unfortunately )

Richmond

Freo

North

Port

MFCSS

GWS

Dogs

Crows ( so we can keeping laughing at the blues )

Lions

Tigers

Port

Dees

GWS

Eagles

Crows (Players aren’t playing for the coach, they’ll lose and Teague will be sacked come Monday.)

 

 

Ugh I can't support Geelong. And I really like the Lions. 

Would be great for Dogs to lose as well. Gives us some breathing room. 

I'd much prefer to increase our chance of top 2 - and 2 home finals - than worry about interstaters in top 4.

Never mind 8 point games, this week is a 32 pointer!:mahoney2:

I'm glad the WC/dogs game got moved from a night game to twilight.  its a nice curtain raiser for the big event

I'll be cheering the bears on hard tonight. The Cats are really starting to get my goat

I'm the same, go Lions.

We need to beat the bummers and stop relying on other results 

Masters of our own destiny. We can then sit back and watch the mad scramble below us.

My body is SO ready for a Thursday night footy event that promises to be a great clash. 


A potential new record for "best set of ins" might be set today for West Coast. They've just recalled Jeremy McGovern, Luke Shuey, Tim Kelly, Brad Sheppard, Jack Petruccelle and Nathan Vardy.

YAY! Jason Bennett is in commentary tonight! He’s my fave.

Uh, we have Jack Viney in this week.

Cameron fitting in at Geelong well. Late dog acts off the ball.

Deliberately rode Lachie Neale into the ground.


Dirty, dirty team. Hopefully they don’t bother the scoreboard attendant any more than they are right now. ?

Absolutely loving this game right now. The Lions at the Gabba is the purest football I've seen this year. Melbourne must avoid that visit in finals.

 

Geelong are getting packed (thus far).

Love how the Lions are breaking them apart and exposing them for the pretenders they are. 

How long till that unfairly judged ‘champion’ thug Selwood eye gouges someone?

Brisbane are winning because they have the pace to get to the ball carrier and tackle. That is our strength, even more than theirs. Players like Spargo, Kozzie, Hunt, ANB – all around the ground we have pace. Which might be the selection thinking this week – why Ben Brown is not getting a game.

  • 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.
