Sorry to diverge but at first glance I misread your question. I nearly fell off my chair.

That made me give out an involuntary chuckle like Dick Dastardly's dog Muttley.

    For BOTH teams.

    And we've sent pretty close to our best available. Should be practising winning by now really...

    Our third quarter fade out is even better than our second.

    Reckon if we keep practicing like this, we might have the fadeout down pat by the time round 1 rolls around, and be able to maintain it for 4 quarters.

    Melbourne just need to win games, practice match or not.... Is the side at full strength? Minus injuries of course.

    No we dont have most of our backline or our forward line - that is not our best available. However given that from the limited information coming through it does not sound good.

    What a joke really, practice or not. Better hope Dawes, Clark and Blease make us a 10 goal better team. No pressure or anything.

    Or our midfield (Trengove, Blease, Viney?), but we need to win, this is not good.

    Doesnt matter anymore, thats why they have a paltry 26,000 members a week before the real stuff starts, there a bunch of losers.

    picked up intensity in 3rd although scoreboard not showing, seemed to have more inside 50s but failed to convert, GC got lucky everytime...

    wouldn't read into it too much..

    highlight - JW carrying the ball from HB taking three bounces along the wing and bombing it long to Hogan at FF.. who just dropped the mark..

    Obviously relying on a 17yr KPF aint gonna win us the game..

    I am excited about the Dees, if can keep up the intensity should go close for the W

    Hence why I said "best available". No doubt Clark, Trengove, Dawes, Viney, Blease, Frawley would all be VERY handy, but they're not available.

    Are you saying it was a mark he should have taken but he dropped it, or that he just barely dropped it? Just wondering.

    not to mention that Frawley and McDonald are out....

    basically our best spine aren't playing

    Frawley

    McDonald

    Clark

    Dawes

    Except for our two best backs, two best forwards and then add Blease, Viney and Trengove for good measure.

    Seems some of you are struggling to understand the term "best available"....

    • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

      Melbourne returned to its city citadel, IKON Park, boasting a 10–2 home record and celebrating its 100th AFLW matchwith 3,711 fans creating a finals atmosphere. But in a repeat of Round 11, Brisbane proved too strong, too fit, and too relentless.  They brought their kicking boots: 9 goals, 2 points.

    • 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.
