    Damn. 2nd on the ladder.

    Second is just as good as first.

    Top 2 gets us MCG finals the entire finals series if we win week 1. And our MCG form has been tremendous so far.

    Collingwood are like cockroaches. You can't kill them.

    Those misses have bitten Adelaide badly and admittedly I only watched the last 10 minutes but Adelaide played that badly. 

    When they were a point up they couldn't waste time by chipping it around because Collingwood wouldn't let them but kicking it near the boundary wasn't going to work.

    Now they're back on top. Yuck

    I’ve been watching footy all my 5 decades, and this is the best last quarter team I’ve ever seen. By a galaxy. They are also currently the best team in the AFL, it’s unarguable. And I hate it.

    Crows deserved to lose. Umps did their best for them. Atrocious goal kicking and crumbled in the last quarter. Take nothing away from the pies but that was an embarrassing defeat for the Crows.

    It's another great comeback but I'm not sure why it's so surprising. 7 goals 16 doesn't win too many footy games. It was really a detrimental lead.

    They might be but they’re certainly beatable. 
    We are also currently 7-0 in fourth quarters.

    Should have put the game away in the first qrt. Bigger ..experienced players were better in the wet . Adelaide is def a team on the up & let’s see how the Pies go for a long season playing at this level. The one quantity you can’t fault the Pies for & I have to acknowledge is they have always fought to the bitter end & they have enormous belief in each other. They also have a team with a lot of very experienced players ,

    The first thing they need to do is look in the mirror. That was a pathetic lack of execution. Not quite the mature threat that people have been talking about, not yet anyway.

    Great win, but geez Maynard’s is an average person 

    So are half of his teammates. A side full of thugs and criminals, and Moore/Pendles.

    Bugger it. Thought short break would have cost the pies in the last. Crows should have been out of sight before then. Adelaide were poor in the last. 
    Pies deserve to be top but they are beatable

    They always seem to have more run in their legs in the last quarter. Same as last year.

    And they've always got a free man in the right position (in this case through the middle) when they really really need it.

    Of course, everyone’s beatable, they’re just the hardest to beat. If it stays that way through September, the flag is theirs.

    • 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.
