    I agree, I was bloody worried when we hadn't scored for the first 40 mins but i reckon they did alright after that, Geelong are just the best team I have seen for a LONG while, better than the bummers in 2000 and lions in 2001-3

    keeping things in perspective a result like this was always on the cards. we are a developing side to begin with let alone the players we had missing, who i need not list as we all know who they are. players that stood out for me were maric, valenti, buckley, junior, pj was ok as was warnock and martin given the constant pressure. oh and jeff white stood out, but for other reasons............

    Not that it would of mattered but tonight

    We missed Brocks drive in midfield, Rivers' calming influence down back, Robbo's ability to kick a goal just when we need & Moloneys driving kicks - long and direct.

    I agree with that. Can't remember Lions or Bombers destroying teams to the extent Geelong can.

    It's hard to believe there is so much difference between two AFL teams as shown tonight.

    I'd agree with that. But we do forget quickly. Brisbane were awesome at full strength '01-'03.

    I was optimistic all week, until I saw the teams run out tonight. (It was the heart). Geelong just looked so much bigger in their bodies.

    Exactly my thoughts driving home. And Garland. Warnock disappointed me early tonight, but looked better later in the game.

    I like Warnock but he has alot to improve on. To be a good defender in the modern age game, you have to have just as good an offensive and rebounding game as your defensive one. Being able to spoil and or hold your man just isnt enough and this is all Warnock's giving us really.

    To me he plays a lot like Tom Harley and could really develop into a handy key position backman.

    I'm really struggling to find any cause for optimism in our up and coming crop of players. Sorry to be a downer but the likes of maric, valenti, aussie, morton and martin just reek to high heaven of mediocrity. We don't have one decent up and coming key position prospect on our list. Not one. Garland is Carrol v2.0, Warnock is Wheatley 2.0, Frawley is Bell 2.0, Morton is Bruce 2.0, Maric is Yze 2.0, martin is Andrew Gaze 2.0, I don't see anything in our under 21 list to get truly excited about.

    Says more about you than them.

    I have to say, with no offence intended, that those comparisons are pathetic. Garland has already shown in 15 or so games that he has miles more talent than Carroll ever did. He can read the play and had some decent skills too. Warnock is nothing like Wheatley. Maric showed last night that he can play either midfield or in the forward line, and after only 3 games he's already adapting well to AFL standard. How can you be so quick to condemn Maric and Morton? When was the last time you went to a game?

    Wallowing MFC supporters, exactly what we need. Your 'downer' is a result of what happened on Friday.

    Half the team on Friday were not in our best 22, and our 'best 22' is not that great at all, so it's understandable that side got obilterated.

    Not acceptable, but understandable.

    What is not understandable is that attitude towards our youngsters. I have seen enough to get excited about Martin, Valenti, Buckley, Dunn, Bate, Jones, Batram, Garland, Petterd, Wonna, Morton, and Maric. And I can't wait to see more of Cheney, Grimes, McNamara, our top 2 pick this draft and our other two top 20 picks.

    I know that not all will come on, but I struggle to remember such young talent at the club. And if you disagree, then that is your right. But say it after the Brisbane game, and we'd take it more seriously.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

    • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

      A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

    • CASEY: Frankston

      The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

      Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

    • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

      Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.
