    Word going round McDonald is a late out.

    I’m not 100% how true it is

    I spoke to a senior players wife this morning who told me there was a question whether Tom would be ok to go tonight. His back is giving him grief and he didn’t pull up well after the flight to and from Brisbane.

    100% rain predicted all night, starting from 6pm and going through until about 11pm

    I hope we make changes and go in a bit smaller....learn our lesson from the WB game

    Going with the Weid who can't hold a mark in the dry. Mmmm

    If true why put him through 8 more hours on the plane to Perth? Guess they thought he might improve.

    Weid to kick 5 and his trade value to go through the roof. Kill two birds with one stone!

     

    There are isolated showers/storms there but no torrential rain. Calm the farm folks. Plenty of the game will be played with no rain.

    We did have to fly over Monday and quarantine for 7 days, they wouldn’t have known that TMac wouldn’t be fit. 🤷🏼‍♂️

    100% rain.  14c. Severe winds. Perfect Viney conditions.  I’d love Lockhart in but given options it’s likely Jordon or Vandenburg likely.

    I do have some back problems myself and a day like they had would cause me the same problems. Hopefully if he plays he’s 100% if not I hope the rest helps 

    If weid is in , does he play in backline on darling or oscar allen

    Jordon in not Weid…going small. Goody on 360.

    Would have thought Vanders to hit in hard in tough conditions.

    who's the medi sub?

    Goody just said on 360 that JJ will replace TMac

    Hoping that umpire 22 is not on the roster tonight

    Nicholls, Dalgleish and Howorth. 
     

    No 22 or Margetts, but here’s hoping Nicholls has finally forgiven Gawn for smashing the ball out of the ruck after one of his poor centre bounces.

    • 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.
