KATE HORE COUNTDOWN TO 100 GOALS

There are some challengers, but barring circumstances that don't bear thinking about, Kate will be the first Demon to 100 goals given she leads Harris on 70 goals (9th all-time) and Zanker on 66 (12th).

Is it time to start planning a celebratory pitch invasion? A big game this week could get her there, but more likely would be away at Freo in Round 9 (disappointing) or at home at Casey in Round 10 (bring back the helicopter, fill with streamers, allow for wind, press the release button at the right moment). Or beyond?

Tomorrow night, Kate. Get it done! Get her there, girls (but win first!)

Wanna see it, live.

    You had me at “pitch invasion.” We SO have to do this should she kick her 100th. Surely they can’t fine us if we’re all out there at the same time. 😁

    ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️GAMEDAY! ⭐️⭐️⭐️

    Back to our favourite venue tonight… Ikon Park! The players are pumped for tonight and they’re not the only ones 👊🏼

    In this game last season we were slaughtered. An abomination of a match, and although 12 months have passed the memories are still painful and the desire for revenge is real. Absolutely [censored] real.

    PLEASE if you can, get over to Ikon tonight and watch a formidable force in our W side comprehensively dismantle the team that humiliated us at their POS home ground last year.

    [censored] how I hate Essendon.

    Speaking of venues, I’m a little annoyed by Garry Lyon’s interview of King on SEN yesterday wherein he mentioned tonight’s match and told folks to come and support the team… at Casey Fields. I’ve had several people messaging or calling me confused as to which is the correct venue.

    Before anyone says yeah but that won’t really affect crowd size, please remember that W attendance is poor as it is. We need every single attendee we can get.

    Anyways…

    The Mighty Dees by Captain Kate (10) + the number of goals she’ll kick tonight (5) + my girl LJ33 (33) + five Tylas because sometimes it feels like there’s five of her out there (25) = 73 points 😁

    Will the GM be mixing with the fans tonight?

    Just watched much of the second half of Hawks vs Freo. Umpiring was disgraceful. Makes it so hard to enjoy watching a game as a neutral #freekickhawthorn

    The last 3 mins of our game against the pies was the worst. something like 6 frees awarded to the pies

    ALFW umpiring is ridiculously bad

    You know, I was disappointed the GM, nor the CEO, were present at the Casey B&F last night, but I guess I understand their absence. The VFL and VFLW players deserved a night recognising and celebrating their achievements without distraction.

    Should they not attend tonight their absence will be felt more intensely because they’ve been at the W matches every week up until now and recent events involving the men’s team doesn’t change the fact that the W need their support.

    If they do attend tonight I doubt they’ll be mixing with the hoi polloi. 😅 Rather, they’ll watch from behind the safety of the tinted windows of the huge ugly CFC building.

    One regular W attendee who I reckon will choose not to be there tonight is Judd, for obvious reasons

    To be fair, I’m quite sure Lyon made a correction about the venue in the segment after the King interview.

    Nah definitely wouldn’t do that. I’m not angry at him.

    True. I have it on as background noise at work, I’m certain he corrected it.

    Anyway, I’m spewing I can’t take my daughters tonight due to mitigating circumstances 😫

    But hopefully I’ll be watching live on the telly.

    It's the CEO I meant & I hope he's not going to hide away behind the glass.

    Interested to see.

    Remember Jim Stynes when he was crook, sitting in the crowd behind the goals with Mr. Wonaeamirri. That was brilliant

    Seems to be rule of the week...they were red hot last night as well.

    edit: that last one was so ridiculous no one knew who it was against.

    • PODCAST: 2026 Season Preview

      The boys previewed the 2026 Season sharing their early impressions of the new coach, the new players, observations from preseason training, and what they've made of the new game style. They also look ahead to the season with their predictions, the players they expect to rise, their expectations for the team, and what they see as a realistic pass mark for Melbourne in 2026.

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      When the Demons blew their 46-point lead at Marvel Stadium in Round 20 last year, the fallout was enormous. Like an event straight out of a Shakespearean tragedy, Melbourne’s final-quarter collapse left fans reeling and the club grappling with the aftermath.

    • PREGAME: St. Kilda

      With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

    • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

      Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

    • REPORT: Richmond

      Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.
