The wheels seem to be falling off both Collingwood and Port in recent weeks. Injuries and form are starting to take their toll as they did for us last season.

    I think this may be a result of collingwood taking advantage of their position to get some heavy training in, doesn't make it any less enjoyable!

    Getting down to the business end of the season.

    Pies have now lost 2 on the trot, port 3.. and Lions have only won 1 of their past 3 games.

    We've won our past 4.

    When I said a few weeks ago that Collingwood’s defense is suspect, I got howled down.

    Such a similar vibe isn't it. Easier to see when it's not your team.

    On a serious note. Any team is beatable if they don't bring their A game.

    Let's hope the Dees don't think tomorrow is an automatic walk over.

    Bring our A game and crush them. The 4 points & % are important

    Our backline can and has defended under pressure much much better than the Pies ever have.

    You do mean heavy loading just a little bit late in the year 

    Might they come good during the finals series’s ??

    The filth are seriously getable at the moment 

    All year in fact - their game plan like a rocket, slow to get going, looks fantastic and good to watch when it does. Ultimately crashes and burns. 
    Wont stand up against a team with structure. 
    KB - didn’t score for over an hour

      The Demons return to the MCG to take on the High Flying Hawks on Saturday Afternoon. Hawthorn will be aiming to consolidate a position in the Top 4 whilst the Dees will be looking to take a scalp and make it four wins in a row. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • 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.
