Looks very light on. Reminds me of the warm up before a game, probably even less intense. Everyone is looking pretty relaxed (watching on Fox)

    That's usually what a captain's run is day before the match.

    Good amount of goal kicking which is excellent.

    Stop throwing footballs at Max please. In all seriousness, what an experience for those attending today and tomorrow. Do the rest of us proud.

    Grand Final Open Training: 

    • Weather is going to be perfect for footy, maybe a touch windy in the first quarter but will be crisp for most of the game
    • Most of the crowd will be Dees fans (many here have jumped on board given our history)
    • Harmes looked like a kid in a candy shop, he’s super excited
    • Salem was taking it very easy with the drills
    • Langdons kicking is still pretty hit and miss
    • Chandler is a great kick and really like his craft. He didn’t miss a shot or target.
    • Tomlinson was watching on looking quite flat and I felt for him. Poor guy.
    • May was kicking from 40+ out. No worries at all with him and his back. 
    • Bowey didn’t miss a target all session. He’s building very nicely. 
    • Troy Chaplin is in a moon boot. Not sure why haha. 
    • Tracc was doing his own thing for most of it just taking set shots
    • The small forwards (Sparks, Nibbler, Harmes, Kozzi) we’re doing a lot of frontal pressure work and then hitting up Tmac, BB and Fritta
    • Backs were doing marking drills and short 15m, 45 degree chip kicks then long to Gawn
    • Lever did extras with Chocco in a quick ball throw at his head and he’d get his hands out front to mark
    • Viney did extras with Chocco too. Ground ball gets and tackles. I’m tipping him for a massive game tomorrow.

    Obviously a very light session but conditions are looking excellent and I’m growing more and more confident.

    Feeling for you all in VIC.  

    1 more sleep. 

    Let’s go Dees 🔴🔵

    Did he take 15 minutes to say it? Not known for concise pontifications, is Dermie.

    • 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.
