    McVee a lock in the top 10 in the B&F. I wouldn't be surprised if he is top 7 or top 8.

    Bit tough on Bill Laurie who came on late in the third and had 9 touches (4 contested), 2 inside 50's and 4 score assists.

    He was great.  Right man at the right time

    Laurie had 9 touches, 4 score involvements and 2 assists in a quarter and a bit. I thought he was good when he came on.

    No goals, 7 disposals, 5 tackles, 3 marks, 206 metres gained. I thought he did well today, applying pressure. Bit tough to measure a crowded forward line on the small SCG.  But I am a bit of an optimist and barrack for all of them.

    Yes I know it’s very inconsiderate of me, and obviously it’s music to the ears of many, but now is the opportunity  for any budding 3 worded trainees to give it a go and open up a whole new career for a week..

    Salem worked his way into it. Pivotal in the last quarter.

    Also covered by Pink in more recent times.

    Alice was Alice Liddell, who urged Charles Dodgson ( Lewis Carroll) to write the story of Alice in Wonderland.

    Bit harsh only a 2nd or 3rd game (after injury in his first). O thought he did not look overawed and shwoed a lot of potential (and I am not his Aunty!!)

    Bill Laurie has shown enormous improvement. Give him a few more games and he will be very handy

    I dont think it was too harsh at all

    He was "Fumbly on ccasions"!

    I noticed he had a lot of clever touches in not much space.  Possibly too willing to hand the ball off to better credentialled team-mates, but you often see that with guys just finding their feet.  If he starts to back himself in a bit more he'll be more eye-catching.

    Bang bang to be precise 

    To be precise I included an earlier ,"bang" to set the scene.........gap......"bang bang."

    Which made it 3 words.to be even more precise I might have needed 5 words .

    Is that OK  with you?

    Very good appraisal

    • 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.
