    Interestingly, if the top 4 win their games there will be a two game break (1.5 wins to be exact) between 4th and 5th. Either way, if we win we'll either move up the ladder or get that break on 5th to 8th heading into two games that are well spaced apart against teams outside the 8.

    Some big "8" point games this weekend.

    From an MFC viewpoint I think it best to look for an outcome that reduces the number of top 4 contenders (as Stu says above)

    On that basis I'm hoping for wins to

    Geelong

    Sydney

    GWS and

    Adelaide

    Another very big game for us

    Seems such an overly long season although in reality it's simply that at this stage of our "window" it's all about the finals series with the Home and Away being a necessary prelude. (This must be what Hawthorn supporters perhaps felt.)

    Of course this weekend's football is up against the phenomenally successful Eurovision Song Contest.

    Don't miss Croatia's Baby Lasagna (singing Rim Tim Tagi Dim) . You never know might be a candidate for the Tassie team's theme song.

    GC usually have their best fortnight of the year in Darwin and then fall off the cliff. Therefore tipping Norf would he be beyond brave.

    Freo could definitely knock off Sydney in Perth if they’re at their best.

    The double header on Friday night is due to having one less game on Mother’s Day. That one looks to be a staple in the fixture.

    After Friday night, Ess/GWS and Adelaide/Brisbane should be good games.

    I can see some upsets this round, specifically Hawks, Tigers and banged up Brisbane all winning.

    Don't Port have a surprisingly good record at Geelong? Or am i just imagining that?

    But their "outs" this week are damaging. Unfortunately I feel an easy win for the "puddycats". Scott's presser should be worth listening too. Ugh.

    We've been taking all of Ports games at Kardinia Park.

    Since 2013 Port have only played Geelong there 4 times. Geelong have won all 4.

    They have met 17 times in that period. 3 of those were finals. 2 in Adelaide and 1 at the MCG.

    All the remaining games (10) have been played at Adelaide Oval (8) or Footy Park (1) with 1 game on the Gold Coast during COVID in 2020.

    Gee tigs v dogs will be interesting 

    Of course Collingwood get West coast as they're getting back on the winning list. But at least they have to travel to marvel. 

    Hoping gws can beat the bummers

    • The Clayton Oliver Thread

      Melbourne have held talks with Clayton Oliver and they’ve laid out where he fits in under Steve King’s vision and been frank about expectations. Oliver is still under contract for five years, but the door is open if he wants to explore his options elsewhere.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

      It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

      The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

      The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.
