Hate Carlton but maybe let them win tonight to get it out of their system.

Still don't rate the saints but the Hawks have their season quota now

Narrm have to win, the train ride home is just to long otherwise

Cats will win but only because it's at home

Suns to get it done for Dew, F/U Hardwick

Bombers. AFL has a comp where you pick one winner a week, different team each week. If only I had picked the W/C opponent each week.

Tigers to get the new coach bounce against Port. 

No stopping the Pies just yet but it will come.

Crows were too bad to be true last week and the Lions are due to drop a game.

    I'd love to see a Port loss to a coach-changing Tigers. Would soften last week's loss a little.

    it's such an even year, i honestly have no idea from week-to-week who is going to win other than home ground should be advantageous

    My thoughts exactly. As much as I want them to lose every single game we're never good in those situations. We're always the team to play another team back into form. Heaven help us if they get trounced this week and their coach gets sacked.

    It's a big one tonight

    Go Swans (simply because I don't want a resurgent Carlton next week)

    Continuing on my what's best for us theme

    Wins by Hawks, Giants, Tigers and Suns would be good.

    Time to concede top spot to the Pies and back them to beat everyone but us. (Yes I hate it but it makes sense and 2 is as good as 1 in the top 4)

    He must be very good.

    Anyone else feeling a sneaky Hawthorn upset or do I need less coffee today?

    Probably not but the art of good footy tipping is sniffing out a realistic update.

    One thing for sure is that Hawrthorn are a step up in class from North and West Coast and are largely injury free aside from a couple of best 22.

    An under the radar upset could be Suns beating Dogs in Darwin.

    I was wondering when the last time it was that a team won by 100 points one week, then lost by 100 the very next?

    Dorks win was to appease the masses (and WCE are truly that awful). If Hawks want Harley Reid then they're gonna need to get their percentage back in order (and the Saints are good at an easy kill)

    There’s something beautiful about Carlton and Friday night footy.

    You mean sort of like a dazzling meteorite falling from the pristine night sky and smashing into the ground with a thump?

    • 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.
