The Dees will face the Pies in the Qualifying Final at the MCG with the winner playing at Home in the Preliminary Final. All eyes will be on the Medical Room as Jake Melksham was subbed out of the match with what looked like a serious knee injury and both Bayley Fritsch and Jake Bowey came from the ground at time with what looked like serious complaints but then both returned. Tom McDonald kicked 5 goals and Brodie Grundy 3 in Casey's massive 101 point win over North Melbourne in the VFL Wildcard Final.

Who comes in and who goes out?

    Other than the colour of your shorts, are there any advantages to the ‘home’ team when it’s a home ground to both of them..?

    Do Collingwood get a higher ticketing allowance?

    The colour of your jumper? We'll have to don the royal blue if recent encounters is anything to go by, even though there really is no clash at all

    Out: Melksham (if injured) 
    in: TMac

    Hibberd for Bowey potentially?

     

    Sadly I think it will be melksham out and we will bring tmac in.

    Hibberd must be a chance, how’d he go today?

    It’s too early. I’m off to toast our top 4 finish.

    I think he's still in concussion protocol?

    Do Casey play next week.

    Yes... against Bulldogs

    Will be interesting to see if we play TMac, Tomlinson and Laurie in that match. After the Fritsch scare they won't dare play him

    Spargo's game at Casey was just okay. Jordon was arguably BOG

    Good to get another look at Grundy. Didn't watch the match but he went ok from what Ive heard.

    When are tickets on sale?

    Especially first half I felt the fwds had no leading patterns. Can’t remember how many kicks were squeezed down the pocket because there wasn’t anything decent and Smith and JVR weren’t providing much presence. T-Mac has got to come in, and I think smith would have been the man out before melkshams knee.  
     

    I liked turners game, so hope he sticks around, though hibberd would be an upgrade. Wait and see around Bowie obviously. 
     


    IN: T Mac, Hibbo

    OUT: Melk, Disco

    I don't think they'll play Tomlinson

    Absolutely no way Hibbo is coming back into the team lol

    Gutted for melksham that looked really bad

    TMac in smithy supersub, ?
    don’t think turner did enough to stay in so hibbo a good chance

    An absolute master class that included taps to players, taking the ball from the ruck, groundball follow up and of course 3 goals

    Players are kicking down the door at Casey but so few slots available.

    Hibberd is a Grunt perfect for finals but so is Tmac and Grundy.

    No room unless Melksham is injured.

    Goodwin will stick with the plan. Hes done it all season.

    • 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.
