Same crowd at dogs v hawks last night as Melb vs syd. A lot less than Melb vs bris. Pathetic. Looking forward to Caro's bake.

    Tonight I am at Rod Laver to see Disney on ice with my GD,s.  And this reminds me of how stupid outdoor night sporting events in Winter melb. are. No harder to get here than the footy and it is pleasant inside and not an umpire in sight.

    I took my daughter to see Disney on Ice when she was little, but it was disappointing.

    Turned out to be just an old bloke in a cryogenic chamber.

    Bump.

    Ok, so I know this isn’t a finals game, is on TV, and involves movement of your decaying and decrepit bodies BUT…

    It would be great if you got out there to the G this Friday…

    The Upside Down! I know it well.

    If you see 13 year olds that look like 22 year olds - don’t even think about it, just kill ‘em! They trouble.

    These are the games we live for as supporters. 2nd v 3rd. Prime time home game. Against an arch enemy.

    Let's pack the G in red and blue. If you don't you'll be sorry you missed it I guarantee.

    Either way the "G" Will be absolutely packed, hopefully many of us.

    We've had another week with lower volume training and should be running fitter and better than even the Freo game, oh how sweet it would be to roll them by 40-50 points and show them who's boss in front of the footy world.

    For so many years we could we only dream of playing in big games, let alone winning them. Now we've got half a dozen in a row. These are the days.

    I think there is a very strong chance of this happening. My sense is that the Pies are really struggling with fitness as they are a young side and will naturally be fatiguing at this time of year. 

    Will be a intense Q1 but cant see this one going down to the wire.

    You're right . I'm sorry already I'm going to miss it. I did make it to Perth. So have to be thankful for minor mercies. But nothing will be better than watching those feral animals being put to the sword. Hope they are ahead for the first 6 minutes so they think they're going to win and then we put the pedal to the metal and obliterate them. Not that anyone needs to worry about denting their percentage which is the lowest top 3 percentage anyone can remember.

    • The Clayton Oliver Thread

      Melbourne have held talks with Clayton Oliver and they’ve laid out where he fits in under Steve King’s vision and been frank about expectations. Oliver is still under contract for five years, but the door is open if he wants to explore his options elsewhere.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

      It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

      The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

      The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.
