Geez Kozzie takes a strong contested mark..... Great to watch him in full flight....

Also nice to watch him miss set shots.... LOL

Melb 39 - Saints 28

12 mins to go till half time

 

if we win today i will dead set spew!!! :angry:

Melbourne putting the saints under some real pressure here....

Dees look really good..... Next season is going to be a ripper!! Bring a few names back into this side and we will shake a few top teams I reckon....

Jamar just kicked a bomb!

Great work KJ - keep it coming. I'm at LA airport waiting for a flight back home and its great reading this.

 

Great build up by the Dees..... Sylvia laid a monster tackle.... Robbo dribbled one for a behind.... Hit the post....

Saints look like they are not really taking this match seriously though..... Being a bit cocky when they are bringing the ball out the backline....

If there wasn't so much riding on this match for the Dees, then the Saints would be getting belted right now!! I have no doubt about it!!!

Melbourne will shake the eight next year (barring terrible run of injuries)

No chance


Saints back within a goal now..... Melbourne seemed to have stopped pressuring so hard?!?!?!

Dunn is doing some serious "gut" running!! Busting his arse.....

Spencer sent off with the blood rule.... Little trickle from the knee.....

Reiwoldt gives away a free kick for abusing the umpire.... He is having a dirty day big Nick.... Chip is tearing him a new one!!! HaHa....

No chance

We all have our own opinions..... But if you think that Melbourne could not beat Carlton, Essendon and Brisbane next year, then you are kidding yourself.....

It was not hard to make the eight this year.....

Wheres Jurrah they resting him?

 

Jurrah gone a bit quiet.... Had a well earnt spell on the bench, but I think he may have been playing "too" well ;)

Saints in front for the first time today.... Reiwoldt has kicked the goal.... It looks as though Frawley has been moved off him?!?!?!? Some strange positional changes happening out there....

Sylvia just missed one.... Scores level 2 mins out from half time


Reiwoldt just took a huge pack mark.... but is it any wonder he has come into the match in the last 10 mins.... He has Dunn on him?!?!?!?!

Saints up 47-41 at half time....

A 19 year old running around at will against the best team in the comp.

8 Kicks, 14 Handballs and 7 marks at halftime. Cale is a freak.

So half time it is....

Saints 7.5. 47

Dees 6.5. 41

A first qtr that would have pleased every Melbourne follower no end!! Some great signs for the future..... Jurrah nearly caused me to have to change my jocks! The bloke has something extremely special about him.... Has everyone talking about him.....

The commentators (Bruce, Dennis and Ox) are saying how exciting this Melbourne side is and how well drilled they are.... They are saying that Dean Bailey is obviously the right man for the rebuilding job....

Jurrah has 8 posessions and 2 goals for the first half (basically the 1st qtr) and surprisingly he leads the contested posessions on the ground with 6, equal with Dal Santo, Hayes and Montagna!!!!

Colin Sylvia has gone from strength to strength this season.... He has had a first half of pure class.... Running his backside off and getting to space.... With the damaging kick on him, he has been hurting the Saints.... 16 touches, 10 marks, 5 tackles and 1 goal.... He has 102 dreamteam points to half time (for those interested) :)

Morton has 22 touches to half time.... 19 of them are uncontested, but he is definately controlling the rebound 50's.... His kicking has improved IMO...

As I have said earlier, the backline has been working well.... Rivers on Kosi, Frawley on Reiwoldt, with run coming from Bennell, Whelan, Cheney and McKenzie...

Dunn and Bartram are busting their arses on the ground.... But poor decision making under pressure lets them down.... And Dunn has also proven that he has no hope of stopping Reiwoldt :P

All in all, I would say that we have shown in the first half that we are on the way to building a side who will win a lot more than 4 games next season!!

The run out of the backline has been the most impressive thing for me.... It looks really good 90% of the time.... The other 10% it just looks like we are handballing into trouble (something we are all fairly familiar with over the past 3 seasons)

And Jurrah is worth his weight in gold.... This guy will bring $hitloads of people through the gates after a pre-season.... If he is doing the stuff he is doing now when we are winning games, then look out!

Frawley back on Reiwoldt.... Goal to the Saints.... Can't do much about delivery like that!!

No chance

You bet we can make the 8 with some class in the mid field & another Pre season in our young kids.

I will be Yelling for it, you can please yourself Deeflog! :lol:

Don't pay $700 a year to the MCC/MFC for nothing. This year was an abaration. 2010 i want wins at all costs.


Commentators have just made an interesting observation....

Whelan is now playing in the forward line...

He has kicked 15 goals in his 149 games so far....

They said "Maybe Bailey is trying him up forward.... If it works, he may ask him to continue on next year!"

i have no doubt there will be improvement next season, but to suggest we can make the 8 is just ridiculous. By saying that you are saying we will an extra 8 games on top of this season :wacko:

as much as we improve the rest of the league will also improve and we only get younger next season...think about it guys

 

If this season is anything to go by, then we only need to win another 6 games to make the eight.... Essendon only won 10....

Bring in Maric, Wonna, Grimes, Watts, Green, Petterd and Bate.....

Throw in Pick 1 and 2, and Pick 1 in the PSD.....

You think about it!! ;)

I am pretty sure we will be pushing the eight....

  • AFLW REPORT: Port Adelaide

    Well, that was a shock. The Demons 4-game unbeaten run came to a grinding halt in a tense, scrappy affair at the sunny, windy Alberton Oval, with the Power holding on for a 2-point win. The Dees had their chances—plenty of them—but couldn't convert when it mattered most. Port’s tackling pressure rattled the Dees, triggering a fumble frenzy and surprising lack of composure from seasoned players.

  • 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.
