Last week you nailed it.

I know its hard but Im not sure if we watched the same game.

Petty totally cleaned up.

And Trac saved the day.

And while bb didnt score after the first he kept competing often playing the role Tmac usually does up the ground.

Clarry: looks totally exhausted

Don’t Ā often disagree with you Joeboy but we did win by 7 goals. God help Adelaide if the team had played well.

Harmes cannot kick and is less than average handball, he does not deserve game

Give me life!

Harsh on Petty. I thought he was fantastic today

Particularly in 2nd half when they were closing the gap. He took several crucial marks, spoils, and kicked reliably.Ā

Bont had 31 touches in the loss against the Hawks. Can't say he had his usual influence but he might squeeze out a vote or two simply because he's 'The Bont'. Howe was a clear BOG standout from that match.Ā

I love Joeboys 3 word analysis and look forward to it every week.

If we do win the premiership I can't wait to see who he thinks played poorly.

Rivers - the new wheatley

Forgot about Wheaters.

They do have some similarities in playing style.

  • 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.Ā  Top place was a relatively unknown position for the team then known as the ā€œFuchsias.ā€ 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.
