    Our team is looking better this time around.

    And younger.

    That team had an average age of 24.

    The one last sunday: 22.41

    I know...

    I was bored.

    I look at that side and I shake my head. How on earth did we lose by 80 points. To Richmond.

    Didn't they win 8 of their last 11? Two weeks before they'd beaten Hawthorn by 5 goals. They were playing with confidence whereas we were well and truly on the wane.

    The fact that White and Yze were playing their last games wasn't enough to disturb the lethargy.

    I know and understand. It's just the margin (80 points) and the club of Richmond.

    It was an older team but considering that we had played Yze, Carrol, White and Holland plays a part.

    • DRAFT: The Next Generation

      It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

    • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

      A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
