    I am bullish about us this season. ย Top 4 ( us, giants, bears and pies). ย Suspect we turn 5:1 at the bye. ย Will love spending many hours with you across the season.

    Who will be the biggest improver?

    How much will TMAC and BBB contribute?

    Who is your biggest โ€˜smokeyโ€™ to be a regular (cf. last year).

    What are the chances of Blake Howes being this seasonโ€™s Judd McVee? ย ๐Ÿคž

    Kozzie attending 8+ centre bounces per game looks like a no brainer, heโ€™s almost unstoppable. It also frees him up, boosts his confidence and is a nightmare matchup for oppoโ€™s.ย

    Have the MFC brains trust got the brains to make this move consistently throughout the year?

    There seems a lot more flexibility through the midfield ย  - ย will Tracc and Clayton spend more time forward with more mid time from Salo, Sparrow and maybe Rivers.

    Are Woey and Pup Brown likely to become regulars and if so are Chandler and Laurie vulnerable?

    Looking forward to (as the year progresses) hearing of the progress of Jefferson and Adams in particular as future KPPย 

    The whole team looked in far better synch last week - hopefully a predictor of the season. ย

    GO DEES.ย

    After a long hiatus over the summer (necessary to recover from last yearโ€™s disappointment), Iโ€™m now ready for the season and am more optimistic than I was two months ago. Not as bullish as I was last yearโ€”I had predicted top-2 and a GF berth last yearโ€”but confident we can make top-4 assuming an average injury run.ย 
    ย 

    Four questions :

    1. Which team is our greatest threat this year?

    2. Who do you think will be our top goal kicker and who our most reliable goal kicker (shots to goal ratio)?

    3. What adjustments to our on-field and off-field load management strategy do you think weโ€™ll make or should make to get through the long season and peak in September?

    4. Finally, at what round and minimum ladder position should I consider investing in the GF guarantee? ๐Ÿ˜

    Thanks and looking foreword to another great season of the podcast!

    Good take on Max - he looks like heโ€™s had enough (in a good way) and is ready to play angry ๐Ÿ˜คย

      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 0โ€“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 โ€” something they havenโ€™t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, theyโ€™ll need to exorcise the Demons of last yearโ€™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

      ๏ปฟA 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.ย  Top place was a relatively unknown position for the team then known as the โ€œFuchsias.โ€ 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.
