And they have done it with a lot less disposals and no one really staring. Still i believe we will stand up next week.

    cant see us winning a game now til we play GWS

    We're no certs to beat them either.

    There is no way possible that we could win a game of footy with yesterday's 22.

    The last time we had to respond to a crisis was after 186 and we lost to Carlton by 70 pts after an even 1st qtr. I expect a similar outcome Saturday.

    I was at the game against the Eagles last year and I shudder to think about next week. The Eagles are very professional they'll take advantage of the percentage boost on offer and I think there's b#gger all we'll be able to do about it.

    Round 3 will be a beauty with both Richmond and Melbourne looking for their first win.

    Ashton Hams could give Davey and Blease a few tips on the role of the small forward - hunting the footy, sticking your head over the pill and tackling with purpose.

    Blease shirked the hard ball twice yesterday......a quote from his school footy coach - 'he's quick but gives us nothing'

    Sellar will definitely play next week. Their fwd line is very tall and Lynch is a monster. Exactly the type of player Sellar was recruited for. We still have to handle Kennedy, Darling, NikNat and Gaff up fwd. We are in trouble by some way.

    i can foresee a 100 point drubbing easily. Last year's game, which I attended was downright depressing, I can remember us turning the ball over constantly due to the relentless Eagles pressure, and the run and spread by the eagles was phenomenal with players finding acres of space on the wide expanses of Subiaco. We looked really unfit then now that I think about it, there were times when the Eagles switched to the fat side after a Dees turnover in attacking 50 and they went end to end with 50+ m passes to players with daylight to their melbourne opponents. I was embarrassed to be a dees supporter that day.

    Eagles have ramped it up a notch since then so I expect a real belting.

    I'm looking forward to next week's game to see how we respond. I don't think we're going to win, but I have a feeling we will be much more competitive.

    To be fair though, it would be hard to be less competitive than we were on the weekend.

    There is nothing to look forward to about the west coast game. We are going to be opened up and gutted like a fish. My prediction is It will be the biggest thumping of the year for any team

    It'll be a very telling game for our team, that's for sure. Will we be able to respond from a very poor performance and a week of criticism? Who's going to step up, if anyone? As I said: I'm not expecting a win, but I think we will be much more competitive than we were against Brisbane. I think (maybe I'm just being overly optimistic) that many on here will be surprised.

    Noticed that bum Darling kicked 1 goal 2 yesterday.

    Gee I am glad we picked cook in preference

    What a dud he is. Must be his attitude problem.

    Yes he probably had a orange juice on the plane home last night.

    Disgusting behaviour

    Behaviour like that fits in perfectly with the West Coast culture. What an impressionable young player.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Brisbane

      Forget the haunting of Round 11 — we’ve got this. Melbourne returns to its inner-city fortress for its milestone 100th AFLW match, carrying a formidable 10–2 record at IKON Stadium. Brisbane’s record at the venue is more balanced: 4 wins, 4 losses and a draw.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Geelong

      It’s been a season of grit, growth, and glimpses of brilliance—mixed with a few tough interstate lessons. Now, with finals looming, the Dees head to Kardinia Park for one last tune-up before the real stuff begins.

    • 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.
