Same desperate need for a hairbrush.

    Interesting game. We shall see if the bears can play 4 quarters. I hate girlong but not writing them off yet though.

    Geelong need to settle down and not get sucked into the fight. they are getting enough field position to be much closer than they are

    I've been in favour of keeping as much distance between ourselves and the interstate sides in order to avoid an interstate final but tonight I wouldn't mind seeing Brisbane win just for the hell of it. It might seem unlikely but who's to say another mini covid outbreak in the metropolitan area won't see a final where Geelong are the higher placed team being moved down the highway to get a near capacity crowd.

    Have to hand it to Neale. I’ve never been a big fan but his shoulder is farrked and he hasn’t complained, still copped the main tag and has made a big difference. Real courage and toughness

    James Brayshaw the worst, most boring bloke on TV

    Brayshaw is the second worst. BT is the worst.

    Unbelievable home team favouritism by umps AGAIN. 

    I hate the cats but the lions are getting the absolute run from the maggots.  
     

    Cats get it at their home. Eagles are definitely another team that gets the extra benefit at home from the umps.

    Our run home : 

    Bombers MCG

    Giants MCG

    PORT AO

    Hawks MCG

    Suns MS

    Dogs MCG

    Eagles OS 

    Crows MCG

    Cats GMHBA

    4 tough games against top 8 sides still to come, I forgot we played the dogs again.

    In short I would love a guaranteed top 2 spot locked away before rd 23.

    At least BT generates excitement, even if he is a [censored]. What’s with Brayshaw’s awkward minutes of silence

    Yep, it would essentially be like having to play an extra final at the cattery in round 23.

    A nice Covid outbreak in Geelong only prior to round 23 would be handy ?

    Good practice leading up to the finals all being well.
    May have to play the Cats in week one of the finals but at least if we did it’d be at the MCG ?

    Be careful what you wish for. The Labor government would s4ite the bed and lock us down for a month and cancel all finals in Melbourne.

    24 free kicks each. Did you miss the 9 straight frees to the cats in the second Q to try to get them back into it?

    lions overall probably getting a better go with the umps but hardly unbelievable favouristism. The Lions have smashed the Cats, gone harder

    If you were just looking at the stats for this game you could be excused for thinking the scores would be flipped. Geelong are leading in nearly all the key stats

    Yes!  I was trying to think who he reminded me of. You are spot on.

    • 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.
