This is lovely to watch the cats being destroyed, perhaps they all believed last week was just an off night!

    Chris Scott is not happy as his players are having a shocker of a night. They are playing witches hats and it can be the only excuse…..

    At least we're not the only team losing the game in the first quarter.

    Both (us and Geelong) teams coming out so far off the pace after last week’s game speaks volumes about how tough a game it was in those conditions.
    Last night hurts so bad as all we had to do was play the first quarter at our standard and it was an easy win.

    Oh well onwards and upwards, I hope Geelong continue to embarrass themselves but we need them to get a bit closer to keep us in the four.

    Commentators constantly making excuses for the Cats.

    I don’t like them reviewing scores when the field umpire called touched - as the players then let the ball go through assuming it was.

    You can’t penalise a team for an umpire mistake.

    It's simply to avoid losing viewers who switch off. Like me.

    Always do this talking up the alleged drama.  Keep the interest.

    Sheeesh

    Yep, something really stinks about this. Umpire called touched so it is touched.

    How could anyone switch off the Cats losing at home?

    The fans are so baffled by not having every decision go their way

    Bloody gut wrenching watching some of the Fremantle players in the pre game tribute to Cam McCarthy.

    Plenty in Geelong have no hope of affording a seat at the new stadium.

    A timely reminder that you never know what someone is going through in private, and we all should do better with some of the trash we throw at our players over a football game. 

    It is after all just a game, but these players are someone’s entire world!

    Ch.7 now promoting a venue within the Kardinia Park State/Cats/Station/AFL Promotional edifice?

    Crass.

    And worse.

    Reserved seating is the issue price wise.

    • 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.
