    The heart always says I want Collingwood to lose but what result is the best for Melbourne?

    If you think we can go on a winning streak you want Collingwood to win by around 25 points and MFC to win by 30.

    That would probably see us overtake both Collingwood and Geelong

    Why want Port to win? They are ahead of us and GC will only win 10/11 games at most.

    Been meaning to ask for an explanation of these monikers for ages: 'Crom', Flagmantle' and 'Pear'.

    I believe Crom originated from a typo in a forum somewhere years back, and the footy-posting public got hold of it and it got legs.  Not 100% sure though.

    Pies V Cats is a tough one.  Both average teams in average form but can look good on their day

    At the G, I'd probably go for the Pies

    I believe Flagmantle is taking the mickey as they haven't won one yet

    Pear is the bogan way Port fans yell Poowwaaa.  Ends up sounding like Pear sort of?

    I'm not a fan on the monikers tbh

    Or, I wondered, a dig at Peter Bell's perennial claims?

    Collingwood v Geelong games are tough - I hate wanting either side to win. But in this instance I think we want Geelong - I doubt we can catch Geelong given their fixture (Collingwood, the Dogs and Fremantle are the only relevant sides they have, the rest being North, Adelaide, St Kilda and West Coast), so I'd rather sink losses into Collingwood to keep us above them.

    We won't catch Carlton so we definitely want them to beat the Dogs (and handsomely too if possible).

    Gold Coast v Port is another tough one. We'll likely have to beat both to make finals. Can GC find 4 wins out of GWS (away), Brisbane, West Coast (away), Essendon (away) and Richmond (away)? If not, we want them to beat Port to try to keep us closer to Port.

    Outside of our game, a Richmond upset over GWS would be the best result of the weekend, though.

    crom - cos the crows mistakenly printed 'go the crom' on official merch once and it's stuck with their fanbase; they've even produced merch mocking themselves about it, i believe

    flagmantle - it's the aspirational name their own fanbase gave to themselves in the year they got beaten by the hawks in the grand final in the mid 2010s; meth coke fans call them 'flogmantle' in response

    pear - cos their fans all sound like they're saying 'carn the pear' when they say 'carn the power' and it has, like the crom, been adopted by their own fanbase as a term of affection for the team

    I’ve no respect for people who don’t pick their team in the footy tipping. I’ve picked Melbourne every game since 1986.

    In our comp there’s a North supporter and she’s dead last because she picks them every round. I know who to call when I need a loyal friend though - and everyone was so pumped for her last weekend.

    Some of you should be ashamed. 😂

    Brisbane beware of the sacked coach games, where clubs suddenly find a way to win after sacking the coach.

    Bloody heck

    Do we need a draw or apocalyptic zombie attack tonight?

    Who to follow?

    Pies to win and even the comp but I keep thinking of Gus.

    Zombie attack it is then.

    • CASEY: Richmond

      The winds finally returned to Casey Fields for the Demons’ third home game of the VFL season, and its impact was immediate. After two opening rounds played in uncharacteristically fine conditions, the Anzac Day clash brought back the familiar gusty conditions that have been a feature of the region at this time of the year.
      Forced to kick into the breeze first, the slow-starting Demons faced a tricky opening against an enthusiastic young Tigers outfit. Casey responded by turning the contest into a scramble, pressuring Richmond into errors and missed targets. The tactic proved crucial, keeping the game tight for three and a half quarters before the Demons pulled away with the autumn wind at their backs.

    • REPORT: Richmond

      It seemed as if the whole purpose of the Anzac Eve clash at the MCG between the Demons and the Tigers was building toward that single, unforgettable moment when Kozzie Pickett soared above Campbell Gray and all but fittingly etched his name onto the face of the 2026 Frank ‘Checker’ Hughes Medal.

    • GAMEDAY: Richmond

      It's Game Day on Friday night. ANZAC Eve. The big stage at the ‘G. The Demons return to the spotlight for one of our most significant nights on the football calendar, taking on the Tigers in a clash that always carries extra weight given the gravity of occasion of the commemoration of the ANZAC Spirit. Under the lights, in front of a packed house, this is where moments are made. Can the Dees rise to the occasion and deliver on the big stage, or will Richmond spoil the night? All the build-up, discussion, and in-game reactions here. Go Dees.
