How was that a free to WCE right on the siren? Luckily one of the brain dead umpires stopped it.

    Jackson, Gawn, Brown, Lever, May, Petty, all been very good.

    Talls standing up in the wet is very good to see.

    Kelly is a bit too dangerous for my liking - I'd want to see Harmes go to him.

    Bowey still as clean as you'd hope to see from a 1st year player.

    2 goals outside 50 what can you do.

    Kennedy's kick for goal though, complete miss kick.

    Not pretty but I’ll take a 14pt lead in Perth a quarter time any day. A bit more clinical finishing and we could be further in front. 


    Interesting quarter.  We looked good to start but then the umpires started to exert a bit more control on the game and swung it the home team's way. 

    Bowey has been excellent. Playing in that cesspool listening to the Booers in the wet, and he’s looked very clean

    Yeo and Kelly got off the leash that last 5 minutes. Some lazy efforts by Petracca in not standing next to Yeo at the stoppage.


    Just need a complete lock down job on Kelly. He's there only way back.

    Thought West Coast did well to stay in touch with their 2 good goals 

    They are at it again.Time differential to kick from stoppage.Blocking off the ball.

    Some one tell the umpires it’s wet weather footy. An arm in the wrong place that does not impede a WC player should not be a free.

    Good stuff so far. They started to get the initiative back late, but what I’ve liked is our forward fifty use. Eyes down and in quickly. If no mark is taken, then we are keeping our heads when the ball hits the deck.

    Their goals also have been earned. No softies.

    Let’s get this done!


    Deadset has there ever been a worse sports commentator than BT?

    Has a CLOSE UP of Hunt getting treated on the sideline. Zoomed in on his face: “Langdon getting treated here”.

    Petty just about has his jumper ripped off him: “Call against Petty here I reckon. Oh it’s going the other way!”

    Just quit you oaf. Quit today and never return.

    Is Darling even playing? Wearing a Lever blanket to keep him warm

    I've seen too many games where he's made us pay. Really enjoying this so far

    • 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.
