Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season.

Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact.

Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start.

Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit.

Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors.

Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read.

The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions.

Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

    On a train heading to the MCG, somehow making it in earlier than customary and can hopefully squeeze a pint or two in at the Corner Hotel.

    My expectations are low, hate losing to the filth but will still show up for this one on the off chance ...[nervous tics commencing 😁] ...

    Carn the Blues!

    Carlton will win. Bookmark this post.

    Doubt it, but either way will be entertaining, as long as there is major injuries involved to both sides

    I agree DL. For some reason it just seems like Carlton will win

    Can't see their season being over at round 4

    My point is the draw for home games, GWS, GC , Essendon gather round, Freo a gate receipt paradise

    The blues are not hanging around waiting for someone in a better position. They are just playing on and keeping the ball going.

    Might run the old blokes off their legs. Might not as well

    Definition of conflicted: Barrack for Pies so that Bkues go 0-4 and keep some of the spotlight of the Dees or Blues, coz it’s Collingwood.

    You can tag but I’m pretty sure you can’t [censored] someone’s run at the ball. That’s what Pendlebury appears to be doing

    Winners are grinners DS.

    A 27% winning rate in the last 18 matches will do that to a club with a FIXture arrangement (hint...it's not a Draw)

    Poor spectacle

    Dark navy versus black and white.

    How about we add white shorts to the navy blue?

    Why do they have away jumpers??

    That’s what we deserve

    Do you want 80,000 to watch the current MFC standard?

    Why are we forced to wear a clash guernsey but these teams don’t have to?

    You can’t tell the difference between Carlton and Collingwood jumpers?

    Carlton are the away side, wearing white trunks…

    • 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.
