    Melksham continues to cop a bagging unfairly, he was good yet again.

    And I would hardly describe Tim Smith's debut as "all at sea".

    Hunt was amazing, but like others, he hit the wall  late in the game.

    Neal-Bullen has few tricks?  Melksham had little to commend?

    I want what you're smoking, Joe.  It's seriously good stuff.

    I usually agree with most of your post mortems but not today. This is a game that if we slotted 3 or 4 out of 10 easy shots for goal we would have won. Throw in a star ruckman out early and a game played where we have lost 20 or so out of the last 22 and I contend that the players werent as bad as you claim.

    I think inexperience in hannon wied and smith contributed but all in all we had a crack to say the least.

    I know my watching was on TV, but I cannot believe some of the ratings given.

    Watts : played with heart Plus a lot of skill. Plus should have silenced ALL doubters

    Neal Bullen : Put in all day

    OMac : Top 1%

    TMac & Jetta: Bloody terrific

    Stretch : Improved each match.

    Petracca : Provided a focal point

    Salem: a go-to machine

    Oliver : Involved all right

    Apart from their kicking I think today was one of the best efforts you could ask of a young still developing side. Proud of them

    I tend to agree. I haven't been his biggest fan, he was woeful in round 1, but has been good since, with the odd mistake thrown in, like every other player.

    Me Too ! I thought him serviceable today! Still needs to get body on body and do some pro running in summer with a running coach to get him at least looking like he can run! Still looks slow

    I agree. This is sheer cruelty. Just consider how he compares with Tmac at the same stage. We were one tall short on the backline which made Hawkins' day too easy

    What hasn't been noticed by many was the work and time Geelong put into Oliver. 

    Make no mistake - Blicavs played a hard hard tag - a good choice as Clarrie couldnt get his arms up into the clear as Blicavs was so tall. Then he used his running capacity to run off him, and kicked a few. 

    Clarrie didnt have the tank to go with him and this was one match up we didnt fix the longer it went on. Cost us offensively and defensively and was a rare piece of good coaching by Scott. 

    Other than that - Geelong have no system. None. Their entire game revolves around selwood or dangerfield winning the clearance and tumble punting it to hawkins and hoping for the best. Some of their supporters were incredibly smug in the last and a few were complaining about the vocal dees fans.

    Well, they managed to beat a team that beat themselves. I can't remember a team so reliant on so few players, it's absurd!

    • 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.
